- Windows 11 has a new preview that improves performance with zips
- Smipping now occurs faster in file explorer, particularly with the chramins full of a ton of small files
- However, complaints about slow yield with unfirmed have existed for quite some time, and this solution has spent a lot of time
Windows 11 has a new preview and does a useful job, although for a long time, in terms of accelerating the speed at which the zips files are extracted within the file explorer, there are also some corrections of practical errors here, and a lower feature that has been abandoned.
All this is happening in Windows 11 Preview Build Build 27818 (which is located on the Canarian channel, the first compilation of the external test).
As mentioned, one of the most notable changes means that you can extract zips files, particularly large ZIP files, at a faster rate in the file explorer.
A ZIP is a collection of files that have been grouped and compressed so that they occupy less space in their unit, and decompose said file is the process by which they copy those files outside the ZIP.
File Explorer, which is the name of the application in Windows 11 that allows you to see your folders and files (see here to obtain a deeper explanation), has a built -in capacity to deal with these ZIP files, and Microsoft has made this work faster.
Microsoft explains in the blog publication for this compilation of previous view: “He did more work to improve the performance of the extraction of zip files in the file explorer, particularly when he is unraveling a lot of small files.”
It is worth noting that this is an impulse of performance that only applies to the integrated unbuttoned powers of File Explorer, and not other file compression tools such as Winrar or 7-Zip (which, in case it has been lost, are now admitted natively in Windows 11).
In another part of Build 27818, Microsoft has solved some technical problems with the interface, including one in the file explorer, where the home page is not loaded and only shows some floating text that says ‘name’ (unpleasant), and a problem in which the remote desk could freeze.
There is also a cure for an error that could make some games fail in its launch after they have been updated (due to a directx error), and some other softeners of general livestock like this.
Finally, Microsoft informs us that it has deactivated a lower feature here. The suggested actions that appeared when he copied a telephone number (or a future date) in Windows 11 have been disabled, so these suggestions are now borrowed.
Analysis: Cure slowness instead of introducing super zippy performance
Last Windows noticed that the change to ensure that ZIP performance is better in the file explorer with this preview, and tested the compilation, observing that the speeds seemed to be up to 10% faster with larger zips full of files.
Clearly, that is good news, and it is great to see Microsoft’s statement backed by the technology site, but at the same time, it is more about fixing the deficient performance levels, instead of providing super tisbos breakings.
Complaints about the unbuttoning capabilities of the file explorer are unfortunately slow in Windows 11 date back to time, particularly in scenarios in which a lot of small files are involved, so really, this is the Microsoft work needs to carry out instead of any type of bonus. If Windows Last tests are in the money, a 10% speed impulse (at best) may not be enough to placate these claimants, but I suppose Microsoft will continue to adjust this aspect of the file explorer.
There are also many other problems to go with the file explorer, as I have recently discussed: there are some complaints about their mediocre general performance in Windows 11, so this is a much broader problem than the simple ZIP files.
In addition, Microsoft Breaking File Explorer for some people with the February update last month, no doubt, did not help any negative perception around this central element of the Windows 11 interface.
