Fix Slow Hot Key Performance

Fix Slow Hot Key Performance on CCC

This intermittent keyboard shortcut delay problem - which also prevents macros from completing - is a bug that survives in public Pro build 1511-10586 here.  Microsoft Level II support is well aware of it, and allegedly has kicked it up to development.  All other suggestions in this and related threads are temporary.  The errant background processes will eventually return, causing a delay.

For those who still experience the issue, here's the workaround, which should not impair performance.  Problem gone since implementing it here , back in 2015.

In the search bar type SERVICES.  <enter>

In the list that appears scroll down to the "Superfetch" entry and double-click it.

Click the small chevron to the right of the STARTUP box and change the entry to DISABLED.

REBOOT.

This is a serious performance hit that needs to be fixed.
