Very slow response for mouse clicks & movements & keystrokes
I have extremely slow response times for mouse movements & clicks, and for keystrokes. Typical delays after a movement, click or keystroke are usually in the 5-15 second range. This is clearly frustrating and unworkable.
This occurs in almost any application.
I am now running Win 10 19H1 May 2019 update, but the problem first arose before the update. I thought the update would resolve, but no.
Also have tried:
Removing or disabling add-ins for Outlook (Office 365).
Multiple scans with Windows Defender, MalwareBytes (free), SpyBot, SuperAntiSpyware. No threats found in any of these scanners.
Multiple scans with CCleaner.
Something is obviously stealing processor cycles, but I don't know how to further diagnose the problem. I'm out of ideas, other than just formating the C drive and doing a clean install of 19H1 via the Media Creation Tool.
I'd be grateful for any other ideas to resolve short of a clean install.
