Banging my head trying to figure this one out. We got a shipment of Lenovos in, they're Gen3 Lenovo P15v models. They're stock Windows 11, and during our prep process we noticed that software installations are moving incredibly slow. Like Adobe Acrobat taking 25+ min slow. This is what we've done so far:

OS Updates

Vantage for business updates

Firmware Updates

Fresh Win11 install

Fresh Win10 install (this broke the computer)

Manual installations rather than automated

Swapped out SSD to another manufacturer and performed fresh Win11 install

Swapped SSD into other slot on mobo

Yelled at it

None of these have improved the process. Once things are installed, they seem to work fine, rather quick actually. But the installs are painful. We're debating if we can deploy these to execs because in theory, once they're setup they're fine. But god forbid a travelling employee has to update or install something, it will cause issues.

Never seen this before, kind of driving me crazy. Anyone have this experience?

Additional note - we've replicated this behavior on 3 models. It's uniform across them.
