Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. But, from that video, that look okay to me. Just to be sure you can try those free software which scan for your startup program and list out which software taking long loading time. For me I am using, "Wise Care 365" free version. Everytime I boot up it will tell me how fast or slow my booting up time. There are some nice option it there to help clean up your system and speedup boot time. I am not promoting their product, just sharing what I am using.

Thanks

I too just wanted to provide feedback to Stardock that the various Object Desktop programs I'm running seem to slow down the boot speed and login to desktop that I am accustomed to in the latest standard version of Windows 11 Pro.  I haven't changed anything much about my computer except transferring my Groupy license to my current desktop and buying Object Desktop and installing Start11, Fences, and Tiles in addition.  I would say getting Tiles up and running is what's holding up the show as my desktop is kinda useless until the Tiles bar slowly shows up on the right side of my screen.  I have an i9-9900K with an nVidia RTX 3090 GPU, which can easily handle Microsoft Flight Simulator in VR with ~ULTRA resolution on all settings with an HP G2 HMD.  Yet somehow Stardock software slows down my machine to a relative crawl on booting compared to what I'm used to in Windows 11 with no Stardock software installed.  In addition to running Fences, Tiles, and Groupy, one of the reasons that I bought Object Desktop is I like the full screen START screen as displayed in Windows 8 and Windows 10.  Perhaps also getting Start11 up and running along with Tiles is part of my problem as I have it set to give me a ~full-screen Start Menu-except for the Tiles bar on the right - (I wouldn't call it a Start Screen).  It would be great if the boot could be faster and smoother and not ~hang 'til the Tiles bar appears.  I have used Task Manager years ago to disable all startup apps that I don't want (almost all the ones that want to start on boot) if an app itself doesn't offer the user a choice not to run at startup.  So, this is not the case that my powerful computer was on the tipping point and Stardock software just pushed it a little bit over the edge.  It would be great if one could have the various Stardock utilities that I have running and not suffer a relatively slow boot to a fully functional desktop.
