I have no clue what is going on, explorer.exe freezes occasionally and everything related to it just hiccups, for around 5-10 seconds, then its responding again
Includes Outlook and other windows related apps

I tried all the common stuff, such as restarting, updating windows, and even went with ISO boot Windows and reinstalled windows (but kept all files)

What should I do next?
This problem is killing me

Did you try going into Safe Mode? If you can get into Safe Mode, backup any and/or all critical content and then proceed to reinstall your OS, after you've recreated your bootable installer using Windows Media Creation Tools(not the ISO option), let the tool create the installer for you.

Wow...

I did a full reinstall of windows, fresh, no "repair" or anything
It worked for a few days but now its doing this crap again

I am starting to wonder if Microsofts Outlook app causes it, it often hiccups when i switch to Outlook app window

I need help with this
