Everything opened from Open Shell is very slow to open

[tzr916]

The Open Shell start menu itself is NOT slow.... I am referring to after I click on something in the Open Shell start menu. I can literally count three or four mississippi's before the item opens. It is everything, from documents or downloads folders, or windows settings, or programs, or control panel, etc.

I've been using Open Shell forever, but don't remember this being an issue until recently, maybe only started around six months ago. But it was definitely happening with a prior version of Open-Shell, so I completely unistalled, rebooted, and installed the latest version, same issue.

Also, immediately after rebooting the computer the problem doesn't happen. Only after a few hours of uptime, do things start to open slow. Meanwhile, if I open these same items from desktop shortcut or default Win10 start menu, they open in a tenth of a second.

CPU usage and RAM is not the issue. There is nothing running in the background. I run a clean system, no third party AV or firewall.

Open to suggestions.
