sleep resume performance

This tag tracks sleep resume performance in Windows 11, with attention to how quickly systems return to an active desktop after entering sleep. The current coverage centers on Microsoft preview builds for Windows 11 versions 24H2 and 25H2, including reported work to make resume faster. It places that change alongside practical usability updates, such as taskbar network speed testing and improved taskbar overflow behavior, while acknowledging broader user frustrations with the Start menu, taskbar regressions, cloud tie-ins, and Copilot.
