Microsoft is assembling its version of The Avengers to fix Windows 11. In response to years of negative feedback that bubbled over with "Microslop" trending on social media, Microsoft has announced major improvements to Windows 11.
Microsoft EVP of Windows & Devices, Pavan Davuluri, is a big part of the effort but is far from the only person involved. Some well-known names are working to restore people's faith in Windows 11 and improve the operating system.
Microsoft VP Scott Hanselman is working on improving Windows quality. Those who have followed Microsoft for a long time understand that's only a good thing.

Clint Rutkas, a product manager at Microsoft who leads Windows Terminal, PowerToys, Windows Subsystem for Linux, WinGet, WinAppSDK, and WinSDK, is on X asking for developers to get in touch.
You can add another big name to the list; Rudy Huyn is building a new team to work on Windows apps.
"I’m building a new team to work on Windows apps! You don’t need prior experience with the platform, what matters most is strong product thinking and a deep focus on the customer. If you’ve built great apps on any platform and care about crafting meaningful user experiences, I’d love to hear from you. Send me your portfolio via DM.
If you know someone looking for their next opportunity, feel free to share this with them!"
Huyn did not call the team The Avengers, but I recommend he does.
Windows 11 needs a lot of work. While I'm excited to see Microsoft committed to improving the OS, the right people need to be put into place to make that happen. Huyn is on the short list of people you'd want to be part of the effort.
