Windows 10: Windows 10 Running Slow after Update

It's been a few months since I was able to update Windows. After many frustrating attempts, including my laptop being out of commission for 2-1/2 weeks, I was finally able to update to windows 10 version 1903 build 18362.476. I have an HP laptop, G6-2235 us. I have 8 gb of RAM. However, the laptop is running very slow, including interactions on the internet. Any suggestions as to how to proceed? Thank you.
