Start Menu opens not fluently

Hello, Q&A-Community!

Problem tl;dr:

  • The Start Menu (clicking on the Windows-Icon) opens up not fluently. Changing visual setting manually to best peformance fixes the problem, till restart.
    Environment:
  • Win10 Enterprise LTSC on an 19" Rack-PC / 8GB / Intel Xeon E5-2620 v4 @ 2.10GHz
  • Start Menu / ~18 own Tiles set over GPO and StartMenu_Layout.xml
  • Testet on VM without problem (2GB with 2 cores on a host with 32GB / i5-7500@ 3,4 GHz )

The overall performance with the Start Menu (for example open it) is really bad. And I am not really sure why this is.
Before I prepared the hardware I tested the Win10-installation and the GPOs on a virtual machine.

I already tried several things with the visual performance settings (System->Advanced system settings -> Performance).
If I turn the setting to >best performance< on my actual session, then the problem seems to be gone. But after a restart the slow performance is back.

So i tried to apply some registry over GPO for this visual settings like VisualFXSetting = 2 (or 3 with chosen settings). But the problem is still there after login.

The VM can run with >best appearance< without a problem.
The hardware should be good enough, at least it works after manually changing to >best peformance< everytime after login.

Any ideas what I could try or check next?

Thank you all~
