Opening Apps Lag - Intel ARC750

[dadyy]

Since the latest driver update (since the beginning of 2025) I've had issues with any update given by INTEL.

My primary use case is as a WEB DESIGNER. 

- Heavy notepad+ use

- Heavy Chrome use

- Virtual Machining

- Adobe Suite Usage

- Capcut Usage

- Notion

NOT GAMING.

Essentially what's happening is every windows app lags. 

When opening Google Chrome or MS EDGE you get a big white window before Chrome loads within that screen.

If I am dragging and dropping something across 2 applications it takes about 10-12 seconds to register. 

If i press WIN+SHIFT+S to perform a screenshot it takes about 5-6 seconds for it to come up. 

Capcut has become insanely buggy and laggy. 

When I click BROWSE on a file upload form on a website it takes a good 5-10 seconds to open the file explorer

Even WINDOWS folder explorer.. like if open a folder the entire window etc. will load but it takes a good 1-2 seconds for the files inside to popup

When checking TASK MANAGER there is ZERO strain on any resources. 

Reverting drivers fixes it instantly. 

I have performed a clean-install. 

Even after posting this i will be researching fixes. 

Oh and.. why I'm posting now? 

Cause Windows 11 had a big update and it force-updated the INTEL ARC Driver. Naturally I do not remember which driver was good.. I'm still trying to find that too.
