Windows 10: Dialogs take a long time to appear after mouse click.

I have a Win 10 system. I am on automatic updates as well. Over the past several months, my MS Office apps, and other apps like CorelDraw and ChemSketch, I have had significant "hanging". For instance, when I go to save a file, I click on Save, and it takes up to a few minutes for the Save dialog box to finally appear. When I click on a file, it can take just as long for the file I just clicked to be highlighted. To get things done, I have to memorize the mouse and keystrokes needed to save a file or any other <File> menu option. Even though the screen is not showing my input, the computer knows what is happening.

Everything else about my system seems just fine. No problem streaming videos or any other web functions. No startup issues. My core temps are 20 - 50ºC. Another thing, the problem is not as pronounced when my system is first turned on.

My system:

Anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

Solution: inadvertent resizing of text and icons using touchpad on older laptops after upgrading to Windows 10

For those using the Synaptics ClickPad Driver you might have issues from the above instructions finding where the "Pinch Zoom" is located.

After you click on "Additional mouse options" the "Mouse Properties" dialog will appear.

On the "Device Settings" Tab there is a button called "Settings" click on this and it will bring up the "Properties" Dialog for the ClickPad. It is on this dialog that you will find this option mentioned.

 

Why win 10 take a long time to install after downloading?

Depends on many features like number of installed programs,your motherboard speed,data present in C:/ etc etc

 

Hi, it may be you have conflicting shell extensions, or registry entries remaining to shell extensions relating to uninstalled programs.

Try comparing performance in Safe Mode.

Then in normal mode, try a clean boot and compare performance.

Then to identify possible shell extension issues, use e.g.
Shellmenuview
and possibly Autoruns if any remain. (free, no need to log off).
(No one program lists all if a lot are present).
