    Hi, I'm Mario, and I'd be happy to help with your issue.

    We are sorry about what happened.

    Since you did a clean install of windows and still the problem continues, let's do a clean boot of windows to see if it is some program conflict, ok?

    ========

    Initialization clean:

    1. Press the Windows + R keys, type MSConfig and click Ok.
    2. On the Services tab, click Hide Microsoft Services.
    3. Click Disable All.
    4. On the Program Startup tab, click Open Task Manager.
    5. Disable all applications, one at a time.
    6. Apply the changes and restart the equipment.

    Note: This process will not affect the operation of your applications, they will just not start with the operating system. Later, you can activate them again.

    ========

    After disabling everything, start only CSGO and check if it starts faster.

    Kind Regards,

    Mario B.

    I'm sorry if the steps didn't work. It seems that the issue is complex than what I expected.

    It may be best if I release your question to other advisors so they can take a look at it and let them share some other ways that can fix the issue.

    You take care and keep safe always.

    Sincerely,

    Mario B.

    Hi PPG. I'm Greg, 10 years awarded Windows MVP, specializing in Installation, Performance, Troubleshooting and Activation, here to help you.

    How are the rest of your games and apps running in Windows 11 compared to 10? If you don't see that much improvement you can go back to WIndows 10 within 10 days at Settings > System > Recovery.

    You can also extend the go back period to 60 days to have more time to decide: https://www.droidwin.com/extend-10-day-windows-...

    See how others have solved the same problem with that game:

    Make sure you are signed into the game and MS Store at top right corner Profile icon. This saves Store games progress.

    Even if you've already tried one of these steps, please do them over in sequence:

    1. Check for game Updates in MS Store Hub (three dots at top right of Store app) > Downloads & Updates.
    2. Run the MS Store apps troubleshooter at Windows Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Additional Troubleshooters > Windows Store Apps.
    3. Try to Reset or Repair the game in Windows Settings > Apps > Apps & Features > [Name of game] > Advanced Options > Reset or Repair. Restart PC.
    4. If that's not enough then uninstall the game from the same place, restart PC, reinstall the game from MS Store Hub (three dots at top right of Store app) > My Library.
    5. Update your drivers and BIOS/UEFI firmware from PC or motherboard maker's Support Downloads web page, using the full model number, Serial Number or Dell Service Tag on sticker. Compare the latest drivers available for download with the ones presently installed in Device Manager reached by right clicking the Start button. Make sure you have the latest BIOS or UEFI firmware, Chipset, Display (Video), Sound, USB3, Bluetooth, Network and all other drivers, or else download and install the latest now.

    Updating drivers from the Device Manager or Windows Update is rarely enough. The most basic thing we need to learn to maintain a PC is keep the latest manufacturer's drivers installed from their Support Downloads web page.

    1. If nothing else works then do a Repair Install, by installing Media Creation Tool, open tool and choose to Upgrade Now. This reinstalls Windows while keeping files, programs and most settings in place, is the most stable method to advance to the latest version, and solves most problems.

    I hope it helps. Based on the results you post back I may have other suggestions if necessary.
