LONG shutdown times on Win 11 22H2 and 23H2

Long Shutdown time

from Stardock Forums

I had to flatten my PC recently due to the issues listed below.  It was running 22H2, later upgraded to 23H2, running ObjectDeskop, DeskScapes, Start11, and Fences:

System clock in lower right periodically stopped updating.
Icons in taskbar periodically 'shift' but one slot to the right.
LONG shutdown times, greater than 3 minutes.

After the rebuild using 23H2 (and completely patched.udpated) I installed ObjectDesktop and Deskscapes, although I have not yet configured the latter.

When I shut the system down, it is back to taking 3 minutes to shutdown.
I haven't used it enough to see if the icons are shifting, or if the clock stops updataing.

Has anyone else seen these issues?   Anything I can look at to resolve?

Thanks in advance for any tips you may have,

Lou

I've been playing with this quite a bit over the weekend, and I can't duplicate it.  I re-flattened this machine, put Object Desktop, DeskScapes, and Start 11v2 on it.   I'm not seeing any lengthy shutdowns.  It had been a long while since I'd rebuilt this computer, maybe it was just due.  Normally I rebuild my computers once or twice a year, but this one hadn't been rebuilt in maybe 3 years as it runs my music studio.  

I also installed the same apps on a fresh Windows 11 build on a notebook and did not see any issues. 

I will keep an eye on the taskbar icons and system clock going forward.  I will add more apps and reboot each time to see if I see any more issues, but so far so good.

Thanks,
Lou
