The start button popping on top of video will be fixed in the next version. If you are getting different menus for a mouse click and for a Win key, check the Controls tab in the settings. Make sure both settings are set to the same option. I don't know about the rest - the start button shouldn't be ...

Yes, however not as active as in the past. I am working on other projects, both personal and professional, which take the majority of my time.

In this case the menu is trying to get the timestamp for a shortcut in the start menu to see if it has changed. That shortcut is probably on a remote machine.
See if disabling the settings "Highlight newly installed programs" makes a difference for you.

The slowdown seems to be caused by the file C:\Program Files (x86)\NSL\NSCommonHook64.dll.
It is probably trying to access a network location and waiting for a response.
Possibly related to the user profile being on a remote machine.

You can remove the Log Off option, go to the Special Items tab and loo for "Show Log Off".

The start menu image in the Style tab is just a sample. The text usually comes from the OS. You can change it from the "Menu caption" setting in the Menu Look tab.

The Windows 7 style doesn't work that way because it replicates the behavior from Windows 7.

The COM threads issue is not specific to CU. It was also reported with the Anniversary Update. So if you weren't affected by it with AU, and you don't care about texturing the taskbar, then 4.3.0 will work fine for you.
