Saving suddenly takes a really long time
Since about 3 days ago, whenever I try to save a file, the progress bar stops at 83% or 84% (sometimes it stops in the 90’s). Before this, my files would save within seconds. This is true even with my larger files. It does, however, always end up saving after 5 minutes (+-10 seconds) after my windows task bar and monitor background refreshes and disappears for a second. Even when I force close photoshop, my monitor and taskbar still disappears so I assume the process continues.
I've tried resetting prefs, changing photoshop versions, reinstalling photoshop, updating drivers, saving as a new file, creating a new file and moving all the layers over, merging all the layers, and trying to save with the "save in background" settings on and off. I have also not done any major setting changes to my pc since before this started. I try to save as psd and they do not have any smart objects nor smart filters. My pc is not close to losing space and I have 32GB of RAM
