Delay When Opening Start Menu

[jazix01]

This started today, but opening the start menu takes 200-250ms instead of being near-instant. Log example:

  19: UserAssist: Dropping 'C:\Users\jazix\AppData\Roaming\OpenShell\Pinned\FileZilla.lnk', already in main menu
 267: Activate Item, ptr=000000000A6AB6C0, index=23, type=0

If I'm running a game and hit the Windows key to open the start menu, there's an additional ~200ms delay at start of the log, like so:

   0: version=a00, PID=8692, TID=8900, Categories=00041fff

 204: ItemOptions[0]=3
 204: ItemOptions[1]=3

I've run a performance analyzer and it seems like it's getting stuck on SearchApp.exe. I've uninstalled, reinstalled, cleaned registry entries, rebuilt Windows search index, installed different versions, and nothing seems to help. Anyone else have this issue, or know how to go about trying to resolve it?
