Right-Click – Need Help!

Hi everyone,
I’ve been facing a really frustrating issue lately on my Windows 11 PC. Every
time I right-click on a file or folder in File Explorer, it freezes for several
seconds or sometimes doesn’t respond at all. It’s making basic file management
extremely slow.
I’ve tried:
Running sfc /scannow (no issues found)
Disabling third-party context menu handlers via ShellExView
Restarting Windows Explorer via Task Manager
Even created a new user profile — same issue persists
Specs:
Windows 11 Pro (latest update)
16GB RAM, Intel i5 12th Gen
No recent software changes before the issue started
I read this guide about fixing File Explorer issues
(https://techlasi.com/savvy/get-help-with-file-explorer-in-windows-guide/) and
followed some of the tips there, which helped a bit — but the problem still
comes back intermittently.
Any ideas? Could it be a background service or some registry corruption?
Appreciate any advice — thanks!
