Slow or not responding desktop

[Gromm]

Hello all,

Something very annoying here. My desktop seems to be messed up. Icons and taskbars, the starter Icon etc do not respond when I click on them or respond very slow. It occured the past few days and I really need this solved because I
do various artwork for professional purposes on this machine. Strangely enough typing this message on the forum gives no problems so far. The buttons on a site, in this case this forum respond normally as well.

I tried a change of kernel, a change of Nvidia driver, with no result so far. What else could it be?

System specs: AMD Ryzen 9 / Nvidia RTX 3070 / 32GB ram.

Create a new user and log in with it. Does the problem persist? If it does not, then something in your regular user /home directory is (likely) at fault.

Ok, new user made, logged in with it and no problems with response of icons, lagging and so on. What kind of fault could be in the home-directory?

Update: the last two or three times I started up, I just waited for a few seconds...no problems. As soon as I press the starter-button or whatever a bit too early and the system starts to make fuss.
