Windows 11 right menu is too slow and laggy

Right clicking on files or desktop takes forever to show the menu. It’s way slower than Windows 10. Is there a way to make it faster or go back to the old right-click menu?

Hello,

 

Suggest you to run System File Checker scan:

 

  1. Search for 'command prompt' using Cortana or Windows Search.

 

  1. From results, right click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.

 

  1. Type sfc /scannow command and press Enter key.

 

  1. Let the command complete and then reboot the machine.

 

If issue still persists, perform clean boot:
