    File load and file save menus take a long time to appear


    A month or two ago I started noticing that when I try to save files to HDD from Opera it takes about 4 seconds for the (explorer) file menu to appear and let me save it.

    Now I noticed the same in Subtitle Workshop and Irfanview, only that in these it takes even longer, like 7 seconds, for the load file menu to appear after I click on the "open file" icon.

    Some other programs, like VLC and Winamp, don't have this problem.


    Any clues?

    Using Win 7 64bit, BTW. Everything updated.

    Are you seeing a thin green bar at the top of your screen in Windows Explorerer?

    No, nothing like that at all.

    But the programs in question (the ones with this problem) do freeze for those few seconds and sometimes the very top bar (how is it called, again?) might get just slightly messy, "displayed in half", for those couple of seconds.
