Why Windows 11 Education running slower than Windows 11 Home?

Recently, I installed Windows 10 Education on my PC, which has good specs but is a little older and has had it's fair share of problems, and it seems to run slower than when I had Windows 10 Home. I want to install Windows 11 Education on my laptop (4080 mobile, i9-13900H, 64gb RAM) and it already has some minor performance issues at times and I don't want it to get worse because my work can be fast paced sometimes.

    Go to Settings → System → About → Advanced System Settings → Performance Options and set it to Best Performance, then disable the Education Edition redundant services.
