    I can't click on dropdown menus, or in some games.


    I recently had this issue on windows 11, I thought something on my harddrive was corrupt since I could not fix it, so I bought an SSD, wiped my harddrive and reinstalled windows via a brand new USB. It worked for a while but now I'm back at the start.When I rightclick my taskbar I can't select any of the dropdown options, it's the same for my desktop and windows explorer as well, the options pop up but they're not interactable. When I open games such as minecraft, or warframe where you need to click a UI/GUI there's no way to play them, I have tried resetting explorer via task manager, I have

    Dropdown Menus Slow in both Chrome and Edge

    In both Edge and Chrome browsers, when I click on a drop down menu, the list is unresponsive for several seconds before I can scroll down the list. After scrolling for a few seconds, the list will become unresponsive again.

    For example, a dropdown list of the 50 states or a dropdown list of Cities.

    This happens on multiple websites. I first noticed this issue a few months ago.

    How can I troubleshoot this issue? Thanks!
