Are any Windows 10 native apps relevant anymore?

by zamsam676 . Updated 5 years, 1 month ago

I don’t mean to offend anyone, but it has started to feel like the native Windows 10 apps (especially UWP apps) like Photos, Movies & TV, Groove Music are too heavy/slow to work with and even inconsistent to certain degrees. They are useless.

I don’t know about anyone else, but I use vlc after I migrated to Windows 10 from Windows 7, and I hate Movies and TV app, it’s bad when it comes to opening media files like mkv – why doesn’t it support mkv and even basic controls of a simple video player.

Photos is way too slow, sometimes it takes ages to open a photo, its user interface needs serious improvements. On the same note, Groove music, it looks good but isn’t fast, it takes its own time to add the music file, I mean c’mon.

Can someone please suggest a faster Photos app
