I honestly don't think so, it is only when I open YT Music that my computer slows, it does not happen when I open any web browser or any app.

Are you using the portable version of the YTMD? (YouTube-Music-VERSION.exe) If so, this is normal. Because the portable version needs to unpack the version of the application that matches your PC's architecture at runtime.

e.g.

• arm64 PC: unpack the arm64 version at runtime
• x64 PC: unpack the x64 version at runtime

If you want to fix this problem, install the YTMD. (YouTube-Music-Web-Setup-VERSION.exe)
