3-5 second pause/lag when un-minimizing programs/folders from the task bar

Hello,

There is a serious lag/pause when bringing any programs/folders back up from the taskbar.

 

I'm running Win 7 (64) - GeForce GTX 960 (but it happened with my last video card too) 8gbs Ram. Duel monitors both 1920 X 1080 - all latest drivers.

 

Tried disabling windows animations but that did nothing. When I shut off windowFX then everything flies again ?...

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated... Thanks... Paul

Hello there all,

I have the same one problem with this lag since december/january. It's only occurs on second monitor. There about 3-4 seconds of delay, before minimalized window shows up.

I was testing this on two computers (one have GT640, second computer have 2xGTX 660 SC).

On both machines there is Windows 7 Professional x64, disabled Windows Update, Defender, UAC, some other services.

On both machines I have DisplayFusion (version from Steam - 7.1), so I was thinking, that it could causes those problems. Even after uninstalling DisplayFusion the problem was still there. After disabling WindowFX everything works properly.

 

I guess there must be some problem with updated version of WindowFX, or with graphic card drivers (both machines have nVidia), but when the problem shows up, I didn't update them.

 

It will be nice to find some workaround, because I can't use this program with those lags.

 

Regards,

Patryk Kloz
