Windows Explorer issue

Do you have this applied? It might help a little, if it is caused by file Explorer.

Code:

reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced" /v "SeparateProcess" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" /f
reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer" /v "DesktopProcess" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" /f

Not sure what this is but the suggestion from f14tomcat works. Regardless, it would be nice if MS FINALLY fixed this issue.

I've never experienced this (as you can see using the AU); my PC is on most of the day or in sleep mode- I shut it down at night, less usually during the day - and I have a LOT installed.

I'd compare performance in Safe Mode, then if that's ok, consider what shell extensions you have.
(Oh, I don't use the Win 10 start menu, but haven't seen that fail to open on the odd occasion I've used it in answering a thread).

Of course then there are differences in hardware and drivers...

You would be in the minority than since this is a known issue since Windows 8. Has nothing to do with hardware & drivers. Anyway if your machine is running perfect, be happy.

You might want to research the issue before decrying it nothing. You might also (re)-read f14tomcat's post.

One thing you cannot do, @sygnus21, is deny someone's experience of something. That also means I accept someone else is experiencing these symptoms,

I'm merely suggesting there might just possibly be a cause.

No, but you can't make statements without knowing what the issue is. Which you clearly do not.

Peace

I have to say I've not experienced this with Explorer, but I do have a similar problem with Firefox. Have to close and restart after a few downloads, as it just slows to a crawl with "not responding". Have done numerous FF clean installs without resolution.

Please read the first post. This has nothing to do with Internet Explorer! Or any internet browsers!

Some of you are posting without actually reading what the issue is.

Thanks.

I never said Internet Explorer. Geesh. Explorer is short for Windows Explorer. Why are you getting so upset? I did read the entire thread. I have never experienced this problem in Windows Explorer on any of my 5 Win8.x systems, not any of my 6 Win10 systems. I only have experienced a similar situation with Firefox on ONE W10 system. That's all I said.

When you said this....

It intoned Internet Explorer and browser issues.

And I'm "upset" because people are diverting the thread from what the true issue is.... Windows Explorer issues.... Not FireFox issues. Not browser issues.

It would be like me coming in on a thread where the OP is having CPU issues, and me chiming in with "my CPU is perfect, but my GPU keeps crashing my monitor". It has nothing to do with the OP's Issue!

Not sure what's so hard to get here.
