Launch pad slow to appear

    I've been having an issue for almost a year now where the launch pad takes about 30 seconds to appear after I click the icon to open it, despite there being no excessive disk, memory, CPU, or network usage.

    I finally solved the issue. I changed my Windows 10 network connection properties to use Google's public domain name servers instead of using the automatic setting. Apparently my ISP has crappy domain name servers. Now the launch pad take less than 5 seconds to come up every time.

    You are my hero! I was always irritated by that terribly slow start, but it didn't occur to me that something could be done about that. Had finally time to try your suggestion and it worked like a charm!
    Thank you!
