Solved boot time

Stop watch for the restart was 42 seconds

Ok, on the stop watch I got 51 seconds for the restart.
40 seconds to the log in screen, and 11 more to the desktop.
It's a bit slower than 22H2, for sure. ^^

That's on a Samsung 860 EVO 500GB ...2.5" SATA SSD
And I have Win 11, pretty stripped down.

I have Fast startup disabled in Windows, and Fast Boot disabled in the BIOS (I think)


Yeah... Fast Boot is disabled in the BIOS, and the POST Delay is set to 5 seconds (so I have time to read the BIOS splash screen).

If you meant UEFI (BIOS by old terms) - Fast Boot - i strongly recommend against it. Since Normal Boot - will run some compatibility/stability tests of your hardware - if disabled - will skip this tests and boot into Windows even your system is unstable. If there's any issue - it's better to be detected at Boot (easier to repair). Windows has BSOD as a safety measure - but more harm/damage can be done till a BSOD gets triggered.

If you meant Windows fast startup - actually recommend this set to Disabled - since Windows won't Shutdown properly with it Enabled (only Restart can do that).

Use Windows Search and look for Startup Apps - disable/unpick everything

Win Key + R opens run console - type/copy here msconfig - click on Services - > click on Hide All Microsoft Services (left corner) and for the remaining Disable all (in right corner)

Click Ok and Restart. How fast does it Boot Now (tho, ignore UEFI/BIOS Boot - and count only after that).

if i dont count the bios it is 7 seconds

If that's the case - even the SSD is really fast. The UEFI/BIOS is not stored on the SSD - has its own memory flash memory too boot from. Only the OS (Windows) - will Boot from the SSD. Fast Boot was always a stupid idea - but people are generally quite stupid and fond of stupid things (booting couple of seconds faster - at the expense of skipping important stability/compatibly hardware tests). That's actually - why it became a mainstream feature. As in - one OEM implemented Fast Boot with its BIOS - and Enabled (skipping the tests in question) - the system of that brand would obviously boot faster. And then the stupid people said: "Hey look - the Motherboard made by this brand is faster than the rest cause of Fast Boot (and 2 of their 9 neurons exploded)! :boom: " - and recommended that mobo/brand - cause of that feature alone. And thus... every brand implemented - what's known as the suppidest motherboard feature (well, there's couple of others worth mentioning - but defintely in TOP 3). And OFC.... stupid features can lead to catastrophic mistakes - as it happened with many motherboards (even premium models of $500+) - which had some stability issues - but the safty tests were disabled (to gain few extra seconds:facepalm:) - so it lead to serious issues. My point is, it's quite likely - that some OEMs - won't alow this Tests to be skiped by Fast Boot anymore (Fast Boot could be there just for show). Maybe that's also the case with your motherboard. Either way - even 20 seconds of running stability tests at Boot - is still worth as a safty precaution. Not always enough - but sometimes it helps.
