  1. UAC background dimming sometimes causes a black background and slow/lagging animations overall


    Hello,I have built a new PC and have an annoying issue.When I for example select Powershell in search and click "run as administrator" sometimes at random, instead of dimming the background image, it makes everything turn pitch black except the prompt window itself. After I deny or accept, it turns back to normal. And as I said it happens at radndom. Sometimes it is on the first try, sometimes the eleventh.And overall my windows has the problem, that sometimes scrolling through a website or opening new windows is not smooth and has stutters/lags.My PC has the following components:Ryzen 9 7950X

    :)

    STORE apps background processes cause keyboard shortcut lag (revisited)

    Store-derived apps running as a background process cause a four-second lag when
    keyboard input is used to launch any shortcut.

    Calculator, as an example, spontaneously appears as a background process, or any store app may invoke STORE in the background, as seen in taskmanager. If either is shown there, a keyboard shortcut launch will lag. When launched manually, calculator does not
    appear as a background process, but later - even when not used - it will eventually be listed.

    At times there's a lag even without these processes running, but that is infrequent and may occur after rebooting. Lag can be banished by clicking the notification icon or killing the SHELL EXPERIENCE HOST process, which hints that it's related to the problem.
    The process restarts spontaneously, but the lag doesn't return until, often, the next boot.

    Some posts hint that this issue has been ongoing for years, but it first became evident here in Windows 10. Is there a way to prevent store apps from running in the background? Better still, is there a way to prevent the lag when they do?
