I switched to Linux exactly 10 years ago, last windows SO I used was Win7, coudln’t really complain about it back then for the uses I had.
But trying to use it now is a nightmarish foreign land, for example:
It had a stupid text thingy bottom left showing latest currency rates “0.2% up USD to MXN”.
Searching for an installed program also showed a google Bing! search of the said word
Nobody has been able to set the clock properly. If you set it to Argentina timezone, it shows 3 hours more, if you set it to the hour that should be, sometimes works, but next time you boot it it might be 3 hours in the future or three hours in the past, or overriden the setting option.
For search, you may need to select the correct program for 1st time for it to remember, the next time you search it should be the first/best result. May need to disable cloud search from search setting (from “…” icon when searching).

Currency rate can hidden (Taskbar setting -> Toggle Widgets to Off). https://www.lifewire.com/disable-news-and-interests-taskbar-in-windows-11-5190865
Timezone will be wrong if you dual boot with Linux, it’s best to make Windows use UTC time. https://www.howtogeek.com/323390/how-to-fix-windows-and-linux-showing-different-times-when-dual-booting/
