    This is just a theory:

    The csgo.exe process is scanning the computer looking for other programs to make sure we're not using any cheating apps.

    When using -insecure does not need to do that and starts faster.

    That scan is faster on Window 10 and slower on Windows 11...

    Microsoft need to resolvev this.

    Clocked it to 20 seconds untill it shows up on the taskbar. 10 seconds more until it's open and done.

    Clean install of windows 11

    Newest Bios

    My system:

    CPU: 5950x

    SSD: samsung 980 pro

    GPU: 3090

    Memory: 32GB 3666 14-16-16-16

    All watercooled.

    Same problem for me, went back to Windows 10.

    If Microsoft want people to upgrade they need to

    address this issue, and if they need, involve Valve.

    At this point Microsoft acts like a small start-up,

    get a grip now, act on this and show some result.

    (the problem has existed more than a year)
