Windows 10: Lag on Windows 11 Home 22H2 Desktop

Ever since buying this PC I have been experiencing frequent lag while using Windows, almost exclusively. While I notice micro stutter when playing games, the lag is incredibly evident when navigating my file system, which frequently stalls to a horrendous extent. Even simply scrolling through the task manager lags quite a bit.My relevant hardware is as follows:Ryzen 9 5900xNVidia 3080ti64 gigs of ramI have already tried updating all of my drivers, keeping Windows 11 up to date, performing safe boots, and testing all of my hardware. My hardware is fine. I don't want to have to clear my file sys

Cannot update Windows 11 to build 22h2

Need more help than support web site offers. I would like to update a Windows Pro 21h2 to 22h2.

I've tried every suggestion at Troubleshoot problems updating Windows - Microsoft Support short of "Perfrom a clean installation of Windows 11." That list is comprehensive and includes everything I would have thought of on my own and then some. None of the troubleshooting suggestions solved the problem. The system in question is a Lenovo ThinkCentre M90n desktop running Windows 11 Pro Version 21H2.

In addition to all the steps at the above link, I've also tried installing by using Windows 11 Installation Assistant. Installation Assistant downloads and goes through the long installation process. But then very shortly after the reboot starts, it says, "Undoing changes" and boots back into the old build.

Windows 11 lags / stutters on Desktop (new PC)

Hello guys

I recently bought a new PC after my old one was overdue.

The new PC is an HP Omen 45L GT22-0629nz

Specs:

• Windows 11 Home (22H2, 64 Bit)
  
• AMD Ryzen™ 7 5800X
  
• 32 GB RAM
  
• 1 TB SSD
  
• NVIDIA® GeForce RTX™ 3070 Ti (8 GB)
  

Since I set up the PC whenever I'm on the desktop, windows and all windows applications tend to lag / stutter / work slow.

When try to open up the windows menu (Windows Key), the Windows explorer or applications like "settings" the pc takes a few seconds to open it, then the application stutters or is very laggy. Dragging program windows across the screen stutters also.

In contrary when I open up a game (for example CS:GO) and minimze the game, Windows runs smoothly (everything opens instantly, no stutters, etc.).

The task manager and the graphs tell me that 16% CPU and about 20%-22% RAM is used while the PC is not operating anything.

So the lag / stuttering ONLY occurs on windows itself, not other programs (games, browser, etc.) and only when nothing else is open.

What I tried to fix it:

• All Windows Updates
  
• Driver Updates
  
• Optional Windows and Driver Updates
  
• BIOS Update
  
• GPU Driver Update
  
• "Reset-PC" in Windows Options with "Deleting all Data" and "Formatting all discs"
  

I couldn't figure out what causes the lag so far, maybe I have an experimental version of Windows?

Is it a windows or hardware problem?

PC is out of the box so I didn't change hard- or software so far except dowloading firefox and steam.

If there's not an easy solution I have overseen so far I am considering contacting HP support.

Thanks for Help
