Good afternoon
I encountered a very strange problem related to the Windows 11 start menu.
When I open the menu, it starts to open not as smoothly as it should. The animation seems to start to slow down, as if the refresh rate were changing, say, from 144 to 60.
Although I have not seen such a problem with other users whose monitor refresh rate is equal to or higher than 144 Hz, everything is perfectly smooth with those I looked at.
The same applies to the Windows settings menu when scrolling the list of settings, and it can constantly change from smooth to sharp every other time.
The most interesting thing happens when I open some monitoring program, for example,
I decided to try AMD Rysen Master, and after I opened it, the problem disappeared. Everything was fine until I closed AMD Master, and everything returned to its place.
Recently, I have encountered a drop in fps in some online games, not knowing what the problem might be. These same drops can last about 5 seconds, and after that the frame rate returns to normal.
My system specs are :
CPU : Ryzen 5 7500F
CPU Cooler : Aerocool AK500S Digital
Motherboard : MSI B650 Gaming Plus - WIFI
RAM - 32 Gb Kingbank 6400 Mhz
GPU : Gigabyte RX 6700 XT 12Gb
PSU : Deepcool 750W
SSD1 : Kingbank 512Gb
SSD2: Kingston Fury Renegade 1Tb
Monitor : Samsung 1920x1080 240Hz (DisplayPort 1.2)
Software : Windows 11 Pro x64

Utilize Windows' native utilities to monitor system behavior: Task Manager, Resource Monitor, and Process Explorer (Microsoft, free).
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysint...s-explorer
Employ all three applications sequentially, but use only one at a time.
The goal is to identify what the system is doing or attempting when frame rates decline.
Assess which resources are being consumed and how much each is using during the issue.
Maintain the tool windows open and visible to observe activity.
The visual outputs might show changes or trends.
Just start the process, open the corresponding window, and wait briefly while doing nothing.
Let the system stabilize before proceeding.
Navigate to the start menu or perform other actions that you recognize as slowing down the animation.
It may require some experimentation to find a suitable approach.
Take your time—don’t rush, and avoid making changes immediately.
