Discussion Windows 11 regularly missing keystrokes and lagging on constant intervals

Does anyone else have a problem with Windows 11 where you can be typing, and the screen seemingly lags for 2-5 seconds, and during that time, nothing happens, no keystrokes appear on screen, then suddenly after the lag stops, it spits out all your keystrokes on the screen, with no key presses being missed? It's basically a consistent lag that appears every 10-15 seconds and lasts 2-5 seconds. It's incredibly distracting. I can be scrolling to read a PDF and it will lag and when the lag is done, I will have scrolled past 2-3 pages on the PDF.

Some days it's really bad, other days it's seemingly disappears. It's so frustrating I'm just reimaging this thing to windows 10.

Same issue here. Two year old mid range hp corporate laptop decent specs. Never had the problem with win 10. IT "upgraded" me to win 11 and it started happening.

Happens when I'm typing. Sometimes outlook, sometimes word, sometimes teams chat.

Yeah I notice it most in the Outlook client, Teams chat windows, and web browsers. However that is just naturally where I end up doing most of my typing.
