Windows 10: problems with time on windows 11. Time delaying with every startup

Hiya.. for some time now i have some problems with clock on windows 11. Every time i turn on my pc, the time delays for a few more seconds. Like when i do synchronize it, it's alright but then after day it start delaying 5 seconds, next day it starts to delay for around 12 seconds, then more and more untill i do another synchronisation on my own. Does somebody know what might be a problem here? Pc is still new so i guess it's not the problem with battery, but maybe i'm just wrong? Also if this will be helpful, the motherboard is asrock b550m pro4.

Startup apps artificially delayed on Windows 11?

Hello ,

Good to see you in Microsoft Community.

It seems like you've thoroughly checked for common causes of delayed startup for your applications on Windows 11. Since you've confirmed that there are no resource constraints and that the apps launch immediately when initiated manually, the delay might be due to a system configuration or a specific behavior of Windows 11.

It should be noted that the Windows system currently does not support customizing the priority of Startup apps, and because many system processes start automatically at boot (not displayed in the shell:startup folder), user-defined startup items may experience some delay relative to system processes.

Here are a few additional steps you could try:

1. Check for background processes: Even if Task Manager shows low resource usage, there might be other background processes affecting the startup time. You can use tools like Sysinternals' Autoruns (Autoruns for Windows - Sysinternals | Microsoft Learn) to inspect and manage startup items more comprehensively than what the shell:startup folder offers.
   
2. Review event logs: Windows logs might provide more details about what's happening during startup. Look for any warnings or errors around the time you log in to see if there are any clues as to what might be causing the delay.
   
3. Experiment with startup timing: You could try experimenting with different startup timing options. For example, instead of relying solely on the shell:startup folder, you could try creating scheduled tasks with delayed startup times or using third-party startup management tools to see if that improves the situation.
   
4. You may Perform a clean boot (microsoft.com) to see if it is normal, this is a troubleshooting step. In this mode, we can further confirm whether it is caused by system problem or third-party software or personalized settings. So, please be patient.
   
   Disclaimer: A “clean boot” starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. It helps to determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program and to isolate the cause of a problem.
   
   These steps of "clean boot" might look complicated at first glance. However, to avoid any trouble for you, please follow them in order and step-by-step so that it will help you get you back on track.
   

If anything is unclear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Best Regards,

Long Windows Startup Time

Here is some more.

Try turning Aero off; or, maybe these links, below:

Windows 7 Welcome screen pauses for 30 seconds during logon

The Welcome screen may be displayed for 30 seconds during the logon process after you set a solid color as the desktop background in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2

A 30-second delay occurs when you log on to a computer after you configure the "Hide all icons on Desktop" Group Policy and the "Normal Wallpaper" Group Policy in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2

How about the delayed start feature:

Just throwing sh*t onto the fire, now.

 

Long Windows Startup Time

I got concerned when it was taking 80-100 seconds. I think the last several times I checked, it was between 53-55 seconds which is acceptable. Even so, I'm curious why the OtherKernelInit is abnormally high.

I disable sleep and hybernate. They're hard on the PSU and I've seen so many motherboards fail to recover from it. I recommend, to everyone, to shut down daily purging the RAM and extending component lifespan.

It has a $200 case, it knows I wouldn't follow through. *Roll :roll:

I didn't try turning Aero off...I should have. It's already upstairs ready to go to the client so I can't try now.

Logon isn't a problem. According to the logs, it is taking less than 200ms (insanely fast).

I didn't think of Delayed Start but, I don't know what I'd do that too. There's so little running on it. If memory serves, there was only 1 second difference between starting everything and only starting critical services. It's something lower than software. At the same time, driver loading said it only took about 650ms. I really need to know what that OtherKernelInitDuration includes. *Frown
