    I have that problem on my son’s pc. It’s definitely an io issue. A faster disk would solve the problem.

      lol that’s not the issue here

      that can give you the same symptoms, but the tiniest bit of troubleshooting proves that that is not the scenario I have

        Could be, my kids have identical pc’s, but the disks are different. One has a slower ssd and its symptoms are exactly how you described, I knew it was slower but it’s all I had around. Both pc’s have SATA ssds. We’re saving for new disks, which I’m sure will alleviate the symptoms.

        At work a similar problem with Windows server. The hosting company changed the IO tier and like snow these issues disappeared. Clicking start and waiting for it to open would take a minute, completely unacceptable, but ultimately fixed by having faster storage.

        I’m not saying Microsoft is doing good work, I’m suggesting a workaround until they do, which we both know is very probably never.

        They already pushed out older hardware with Windows 11, they won’t care about slower storage options.
