Windows 10 file explorer slow working

Question

Hello!
got a problem on windows updated to 2004, every 3 clicks on file or folder freeze file exporter and I need to wait ~10-15 second until file or folder opens, the same problem when I use right-click on file or folder.
Have already tried to play around google advice like create a new profile, indexing and etc.
Nothing help!
Maybe some one knows how to fix this issue?

Hi guys, i have the same problem. I use clean install, but in build 19041 - 19042 There is still problem.

Answer 2

Clean Install did Nothing - issue returns as you restore your files and applications

Was on h20 wiped & performed a life killing 12hr rebuild to get back up and running - same thing...

Programs which could possibly be responsible - if not windows itself - are as follows for me:

Bitdefender Antivirus Plus (w/o vpn)
LastPass - a new password mgr i switched to recently
OneDrive for Business (though there's virtually nothing in it)
Dropbox for Business (with less than 50gigs in it & has existed longer than the issue)
Google Drive (which has 350gig of data and is used for a syncing two desktops by redirecting user data folders to it with the actual machine backups disabled so i can maintain full sync of files between my desktop and laptop without using onedrive) - solution has existed longer than this issue.

Can't isolate or resolve the issue

System Specs:

I have found some differences in the Event Viewer before dropping the share and after re-sharing.

Before I drop and everythig is slow I see a LOT of these...

These do not happen after the re-share until I reboot again.

I got an update last week of some sort and my issues have been resolved. I will have to look a little closer as to what was updated.
