Windows 11 Performance Optimization Tips – What’s Working for You?

Hi everyone,

I’ve recently been helping a few clients optimize their Windows 11 systems and noticed some performance improvements with a few tweaks—like disabling startup apps, adjusting for best performance under system settings, and uninstalling bloatware that came preinstalled.

However, I’m curious to know what your go-to strategies are for getting the best performance out of Windows 11. Have you noticed any impact from disabling virtual desktops, tweaking registry settings, or using third-party tools?

Also, is anyone seeing better results using Power Plans (Balanced vs. High Performance vs. Ultimate Performance)?

Looking forward to learning from your experiences and tips—whether you’re managing personal machines or enterprise environments.

Thanks in advance!

We don’t do anything.

But the workforce laptops are all i7 and SSD equipped. WiFi 5 or 6 as well.

Seems Microsoft is doing much better today.

I usually just disable startup programs and turn off some visual effects.

Switching power plans helps a bit too. Haven’t tried registry tweaks yet. Curious to know what others do!
