Like any other OS, Windows 11 has its set of problems, but it also comes with a great community and built-in feature that helps to report those problems. While you should always reach out to experts wherever possible, it is also a good idea to report for anything you face. This guide will share how to send feedback or complaints about Windows 11 to the Microsoft team.
What is Feedback HUB in Windows 11?
Feedback HUB is an application in Windows that allows users to send their experience. You can quickly launch it by pressing the WIN key + F but don’t be surprised, as using a keyboard will ask you to input feedback. Also, attach a screenshot of the screen.
That said, when you launch it from the Start menu, you get a dashboard that guides how to use it. You can search for your problem, learn how to use it, browse the category, and suggest a problem. So, it acts as a central repository for all problems and recommendations that can help Microsoft improve the user experience.
Feedback HUB offers four broad sections. It includes Feedback, Announcements, Quests, and Achievements. While the last two are made to help users know more features and give points, the former two are helpful.
