Hi! I am having a big problem with windows 8 : We are in a windows domain, and the 1rst login takes 2-3+ mins. Once a user has logged on, the following logins are very fast (max 10secs). I see after following your instructions and doing the trace that it is the explorer step that is taking extremely long (over 170s). Can you please help me? I don't see why it would do that !! I will attach the xml. summary_boot.xml
