Without preloading, launching File Explorer accounted for 32.4 MB of RAM, and enabling the feature nearly doubled RAM usage, bringing it up to 67.4 MB.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s negligible usage, of course, even on a PC with 4 GB RAM\u2014but the problem is that doubling memory consumption doesn&#8217;t bring much of a real-world improvement. Preloading or not, Windows 11 loads File Explorer in about the same time at a glance. Slowing down the video to 0.25x reveals that the preloaded option is indeed faster, but does it really mater if you need to hunt for it in slow motion footage?<\/p>\n<p>The real difference kicks in when the system is under heavy load. With 16 tabs open in Edge, preloading File Explorer made it noticeably faster. Still, that&#8217;s just one side of the coin.<\/p>\n<p>The context menu remains slow to load regardless of preloading, with things like Edit in Notepad or Ask Copilot taking their sweet time to load. Part of this can be remedied by going to Settings in Windows, then Accessibility, and lastly, Visual effects. Turn off Transparency effects and Animation effects for a bit of a speed boost.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:1440px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"PvXwkh82WQMTNwqwpjwxFF\" name=\"Windows_10_Search.jpg\" alt=\"Windows 10 search\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/hooray-microsoft-is-making-file-explorer-faster-but-its-still-slower-than-windows-10-and-consumes-more-ram-boo.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"1440\" height=\"810\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>So, it seems like File Explorer is getting a bit of an improvement at twice the RAM usage. This would be fine if not for the fact that Windows 10 offered a much faster and smoother experience in File Explorer.<\/p>\n<p>Windows Latest compared the two, with the Windows 10 device only running 2GB of RAM, and File Explorer still loaded almost instantly.
