Slow when changing user accounts

[jimmypop]

I have win 8.1 and i have cloned my installation to a new samsung ssd.
Everything works fine but sometimes when i switch user accounts it takes some time to load the desktop (the mousepointer is turning a blue circle). Like he has to reload explorer.exe

After a few seconds everything is ok again and i can continue to work.

But what could be the problem of this ?

Thnx

What makes this difficult is you say, "sometimes" it takes it long time. Intermittent problems are often the most difficult to troubleshoot.

What security software are you using? Are there any errors in device manager?

Are you coming from a large HD to a smaller SSD?

I have avira pro antivirus / in device manager is everything ok / i upgraded to a bigger ssd (i used acronis to do the cloning)

Well, if me, I would uninstall Avira and reboot, then go with Windows own Windows Defender and see what happens. If fine, you could then try re-installing Avira or just keep WD. I use WD with MBAM on all my W8 systems.
