Heya, been having this issue for some months, where after a restart Windows 10 64-bit, fully updated, launches some programs during start-up, while others don't get launched, and I can start some manually while not others. This lasts for about 20 minutes, after which everything comes alive. Short list of issues I can remember off of the top of my head, during startup: Some programs start after logging in, while others don't. I thought I had a screenshot of the apps, but that seems to be missing... Examples of programs that start with no problem: iCue, StreamDeck, Nvidia Broadcast, DisplayFusion, BackBlaze. Examples of programs that don't start: TASCAM audio interface drivers & control app (meaning no sound, can manually start), Steam (can't manually start, have to wait until the 20 minutes is over), Teams, OneDrive (kinda starts, but doesn't connect within the initial 20 minutes). I can manually start many programs like my web browser, VLC, IrfanView, Telegram, Slack etc. via Start menu, quick launch icons or my iCue and StreamDeck app launchers. Some others I can't get started even like this, like Steam, it just won't start until the 20 minutes is over. Task Manager's main view works, but if I try to change the tab to the Start-up one, it hangs until the 20 minutes is up. I can't use the file explorer to browse drives and files. It shows up when trying to open it via e.g. Win+E, but the My Computer view never populates. Again, after the 20 minutes is over it works just fine. I can also access files just fine by using the file browsers in other programs, like VLC. Nothing is chugging or anything during this time. Hard drives aren't being cranked hard, CPU usage is low, GPU usage is non-existent, all the apps that can be launched (like web browser) work just fine and dandy, no issues. It feels more like a timer than system congestion. This lasts about 20 minutes every time (never more than about a minute of variance), after which all the apps that hadn't launched during start-up come alive, Steam starts, file explorer starts to work, Task Manager starts to work, everything just works again. I have tried doing full scans with Windows Defender, Avast and Malwarebytes, finding nothing, integrity checks all come out as clean, etc. No idea what to do or where to go from here. EDIT: Oh right computer is as follows Gigabyte X470 Aorus Gaming 7 Wifi rev1.0, second to latest BIOS AMD Ryzen R9 3900X Corsair 64GB 3200MHz RAM running at 3000 MHz Asus 3080 TUF OC 4xSSDs (1xNVME + 3xSATA) 3xHDDs 1xDAS (Drobo 5C)
