Wifi taskbar button lag.

Anonymous

I use windows 10.

When I want to turn it on through the taskbar wifi button there is no lag.

When I however click the wifi icon in the taskbar to open up the network list and proceed to click the wifi button to turn it OFF there is a lag, and even more bizarre is it pretends like I did not click it at all. I have to click it a second time in order to shut it off. 

I end up hitting the "network settings" option above the button and manually selecting the wifi option and clicking the little on/off switch in that menu because that's faster than waiting for the lag or out of frustration click it 3 times instead of twice making it turn off and back on again. 

I would like to know what is causing this lag.

    Good Day Inuraichi

    My name is Carlo, I'm an Independent Advisor and community member like you.

    I am also using Windows 10 pc. Let us work together to sort this out.

    Here's the steps you can try.

    -Press Windows key + X

    -Go to Windows Powershell Admin

    -Copy and paste the command below and hit enter.

    Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.Windows.ShellExperienceHost | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

    Once done close the powershell

    -Click Start type Task Manager

    -Click On Processes

    -Look for Windows Explorer

    -Right click and Hit Restart.

    Restart your computer using cleanboot.

    1. Open the run box by pressing the Windows Key + R and type msconfig
    2. System Configuration Utility box will open and by default you are on general tab.
    3. On the General tab, click the selective startup and make sure that load system service and load startup items both have checked mark.
    4. Click on services tab
    5. Put a check mark on Hide All Microsoft Services
    6. Once Hide all Microsoft Services have checked mark on it, click on Disable All
    7. Click on the Startup Tab and click open task manager. This will open another window which contains all your startup applications on the administrator account.
    8. Disable all application that you're not using. You can simply just click on them and select disable.
    9. Click OK, Apply and close the configuration utility
    10. Restart your pc and check.

    I hope the information above helps. Please let me know how it goes.

    Have a wonderful day ahead and stay safe.

    Sincerely,

    Carlo T.
