Hive/Classes Hive affecting login?

Similar to my other thread, we are experiencing issues with a pool that otherwise seems perfectly fine.

While on the parent machine, logged in as the local admin, login times are very fast (10-20 seconds.) However, once I take a snapshot and compose the test pool, the login times spike to 400+ seconds.

I've tried removing startup items and disabled services, ran the Optimization Tool, cleanmgr, etc. 

Anyone else have this issue?

(We do not have UEM, or mandatory user profile.)

Are you using App Volumes?

I should probably also add that if I log into a VM from the pool with the same account, only the first login takes forever, subsequent logins are around the 5 second mark.  If this was a persistent pool I would be happy but it's a floating linked clone.

Did you do anything to the default profile, if not you may want to look at

Creating an Optimized Windows Image for a VMware Horizon Virtual Desktop | VMware

there is a section in there about using the vmware optimization tool and how to configure it to modify the default profile. Usually if the first logon is a lot longer then the other login attempts, its doing a lot of work. They suggest using mandatory profiles at the end, which can be quicker, but just having the optimizer tool run its optmiizations on the default profile helps.

OS Optimization Tool has already been run so unfortunately, that won't help in this case...
