Start11 on Windows 11 11621.1483 ni_release - whole system extremely slow

from Stardock Forums

Since the latest update of Start 11 and Windows (I'm on the Release Preview insider version), the whole system frequently becomes extremely slow. 

  • During startup, the Taskbar (Start11 Taskbar enabled) starts, freezes, restarts and after about 30 seconds unfreezes.
  • Frequently, after a while (10 minutes, 1 hours) the whole system becomes extremely slow. Only solution then is to do a reboot.
  1. 99.99% sure it's not a virus
  2. Closing all applications doesn't solve the issue
  3. Disabling (and reboot) the Start11 taskbar (Uncheck 'Let Start11 enhance the taskbar) seems to solve the issue

* I know Release Previews are not supported. Whish I could get out of that, and the system is 'Queued for unenrollment' for ages already.

Windows Version: 11621.1483 ni_release
Start11 version: 1.41
