My issue is similar with this person but unlike them, no update fixed my issue. My start menu has a one second delay every time I open it. The only time the animation is smooth is when you open it repeatedly. Is there another way to fix this aside from disabling the driver for my GPU? My GPU is an old AMD Radeon R5 M230.
Lag in Start menu when dedicated GPU is enabled
- Thread starter lochmarf
- Start date
Just want to mention that I already tried assigning the StartMenuExperienceHost.exe to the integrated GPU (Intel HD Graphics 5500) via Settings -> Display -> Graphic Settings and that didn't fix the problem. Putting it in High Performance Mode from AMD's settings panel didn't do anything too.
Did you try the fix the OP in post #5 from your link initiated? Yours would be AMD, not Nvidia but the process is the same.
Just so I'm understanding, when you click the Start Button, it takes 1 second to fly out?
If you have a dedicated GPU (AMD) and it doesn't auto-disable the onboard GPU, check in your BIOS and see if you can disable the onboard GPU.
3. In the right-hand side window you will see the “MenuShowDelay” entry and it should be set to 400. Double click on “MenuShowDelay” to edit the entry
4. In the window that pops up change the value data from 400 to 50 then click ok. (You can set a value between 0 and 4000, the lower the number the quicker the start menu should load.)
5. Close down the registry editor and restart your machine for the setting to take effect.

P.S. Mine is set to 400 which is instant.
Thanks,

Only about half a second but it's very noticeable.
My laptop only lets you disable the discrete gpu but not the onboard one.
Mine is already set to 400...
I guess I'll just have to live with it or wait for an update for my GPU driver or to Windows.
Did you try and change the setting? Change it to 50 and test it.
Before doing anything else, please set up a valid backup if you don't have one already. Any changes you make can be reverted back in minutes with a good backup plan.
