What's causing this drop in performance?

0

So when browsing trough folders in Explorer, suddenly my mouse will stutter and scrolling trough folders goes extremely slow. This goes on for 10 seconds and happens multiple times a day. I don't see any peak in CPU or disk activity when this happens.

How can I identify what is causing this drop in performance?

Monitor your task manager for any processes that are taking up your CPU usage – Sandeep Bansal – 2013-05-27T18:53:33.303

I mentioned that in the question, there's no peak in CPU or disk activity when that happens. – Forza – 2013-05-27T21:45:45.940

Any Explorer extensions? Image previewer handlers? – surfasb – 2013-05-28T00:58:54.227

do you use MSE? I saw such hangs when I've tried this tool in the past. – magicandre1981 – 2013-05-28T04:01:49.127

I don't have MSE. @surfasb, I believe not, I do have a lot of programs installed but no explorer extensions afaik. – Forza – 2013-05-28T08:51:54.607
