Ctrl+Shift+Esc is the superior shortcut in my opinion ;)

  same, and I have done all this -- the issue is my box is subjectively and obviously lagging, but perfmon shows like zero util... Its just weird.

    Move any windows around if it is not instant, save everything (just in case) and kill dwm.exe (DWM will restarts on its own) Seems to be a bug that it slowly gets slower and slower especially if many windows are open.

      I couldnt find that process in W11... however - I did a hard reboot and it came back to normal, but first I went in and turned off a lot of autostart cruft - but after doing that I rebooted and it still didnt fix it until the hard reset.

        Its name is simply "Desktop Window Manager" but the process is dwm.exe the file is under \Windows\system32\dwm.exe Its defensively there without it there would be no desktop environment visible.

          Ah - I am an ideout. I was looking for "DWM.EXE" in Here: https://i.imgur.com/qz53ome.png https://i.imgur.com/qz53ome.png And as you can see, I didnt equate the two. --- An aside: this really reveals how much knowledge in one's field disappears over the years... I have been a windows admin and everything since windows 3.1....... etc. But when youre doing other things years after that, on the 'meta' levels, if you will.... christ - I used to bullseye Exchange DB Corruption in my IBM T42 back home. They're not much bigger than a couple hundred gigs.
