Windows 10 version 1809 update - Slow Context New Submenu & Menu Items Missing

Anonymous

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone else has this problem.

After the 1809 update I've found that all the PCs I have applied it to so far have the same symptom of very slow access to the New submenu in Right Click Context menus. It seems when you first open the right click menu and scroll to the New submenu there will be a long delay before the submenu opens which freezes the Context menu. Once the New submenu opens you can roll the mouse cursor on and off the submenu and it will close and re-open quickly, but as soon as you allow the Context menu to close and try the re-open it the problem returns. It appears to be some problem with background enumeration of the menu.

I also notice on a couple of machines the New submenu now contains far fewer items after the 1809 update. Some of the systems have a lot of software installed so usually have a long list in the New submenu, others are basically vanilla content machines for browsing and just have the defaults with Office 365.

This happens over the desktop or in any open Explorer window.

The five machines I have upgraded are from a variety of manufacturers(Dell, Acer and Asus) using different processors(new and old), graphic cards(AMD, Nvidia and Intel), etc., etc., so it seems it is not associated with any specific hardware. I have had no other obvious problems with the 1809 update.

" Current issue with V1809 is Screen Freeze arround 30 second time to time"

One of computer upgraded from v1703 to v1809 Last week and I have same issue of context menus seem to behave fine except for the "New" menu''. But, I upgraded Another computer to Windows 10 V1809 Yesterday 20 December, 2019. The Context Menu for "New" is working fine. But ther is Freez Mouse action time to time for arrond 30 seconds and work normally.

It is really frustrating. The Windowsw 10 V1703 and 1709 was working fine but after upgrading the version it is irritating. Before versions upgrade posting please test properly in different workstations.

I am desperately waiting Updates not version upgrades...Please....!!!!

Dear Mark,

"I am testing installing Windows 10 Version 1809 with screen freeze time to time for around 30 seconds for other workstations"

I had Windows 10 Enterprise Version 1703 and working perfectly but I upgraded to v1809 arround 10 days ago and it is irritating of issue of context menu "New" clicking freezes. We have Many Corporate Laptops and Desktops and planning to upgrade to latest versions. Yesterday 20 December, 2018, I installed Windows 10 x64 V1703 with GPT UEFI USB Boot Key and upgraded to V1809 in one of Lenovo Desktop Model: Lenovo Desktop V520 type 10NK Intel Core i7-7700 3.60GHz 16GB Ram 1TB HDD.

There is no problem of Context Menu "New". But Screen freezes time to time for around 30 seconds. Hope you have already corrected this and updated in the Microsoft Upgrade sites.

Radhab.
