My laptop will slow after I open some program and the log show that the restart manager start new sesstion and after that despite I closed that program or not my laptop will slow untill I restart it. Then, if I don't restart for a while my laptop will lag too much and cannot do anything untill I restart it.

Program that I facing now are three game "Genshin impact" "Hokai Star rail" and "Civilization VI".

It's so annoying that I need to restart everytime I open it and another thing I do while I open it is so slow.

Can someone have solution on this ? I try finding everywhere but got nothing.

    For this kind of slowdown on Windows 11 after opening specific programs, use this troubleshooting path:

    1. Restart the PC first
      • Go to Start > Power > Restart.
      • A restart performs a full boot cycle and is the first step when the system becomes slow or unstable.
    2. Check for Windows updates
      • Go to Start > Settings > Windows Update.
      • Select Check for updates and install all available updates.
      • This is especially important when the issue starts after launching apps or games and the system remains slow until restart.
    3. Check Device Manager for driver problems
      • Right-click Start and select Device Manager.
      • Look for any device with an exclamation mark (!).
      • Right-click the affected device and select Update driver.
      • If updating does not help, try Disable or Uninstall for the affected device.
      • Since the issue happens when opening games, graphics-related devices are important to check.
    4. Make sure there is enough free disk space
      • Windows needs free space for swap files and normal operation.
      • Keep about 10% to 15% of the drive free.
      • Low free space can make the laptop stay slow even after the program is closed.
    5. Disable unnecessary startup apps
      • Open Startup settings and disable apps that do not need to start with Windows.
      • In Task Manager, startup items can also be reviewed and disabled.
      • This helps reduce background load and can improve overall responsiveness.
    6. If the problem keeps happening, test in Safe Mode
      • Start the PC in Safe Mode.
      • If the slowdown does not happen there, the cause is more likely a driver, device, or software conflict.
    7. If the issue began after installing or changing software, remove or repair that app if possible
      • Go to Start > Settings > Apps > Installed apps.
      • Select the app and open Advanced options.
      • Choose Repair first, then Reset if needed.
      • If needed, uninstall the app from Start > Settings > Apps > Installed apps.
      • Not all desktop apps support Repair or Reset.
    8. Use recovery options if basic troubleshooting does not fix it
      • Try restoring Windows by using a system restore point or another recovery option.
      • Choose the recovery option that best matches when the problem started.

    The RestartManager events shown in Event Viewer only indicate that a new session started. The supported troubleshooting in the available documentation focuses on checking drivers, updates, free space, startup load, Safe Mode testing, and recovery rather than treating that event itself as the root cause.
