query about speed of boot time

Hello,

Please be informed that, if there are many startup items on the desktop, it will take time to boot up to the desktop screen. It is the ideal time to boot up.

Also, suggest you to run the system maintenance troubleshooter.

Its a built-in troubleshooter to check and fix issues with system.

Refer these steps:

1. Press Windows key +X, select
Control panel.

2 . Change the view by option on the top right to Large icons.

3. Click on troubleshooting and click on the
view all option on the left panel.

4. Run the System Maintenance troubleshooter.

Computer takes too long time to boot to Desktop screen.

Hi,

Before we assist you, we would like to know the below information,

• 
  Do you receive an error code message?
  
• 
  Which Windows 10 build is installed on the Computer?
  
• 
  What is the make and model of the computer?
  

There are two possible explanations:

• 
  An external device (mouse, printer) could be the culprit;
  
• 
  This issue could be due to outdated display drivers and updating them could make the black screen disappear.
  

I suggest you to try the below methods and check if it helps.

Method 1 – Check the external devices

• 
  Unplug all external devices
  
• 
  Restart the computer
  
• 
  If the black screen has disappeared, add the devices back one at a time to see which piece of hardware is causing this issue
  
• 
  Once identified, install updated drivers for that particular piece of hardware.
  

Method 2: I suggest you to
install the updates again using the steps below, and restart the computer.

• 
  Click on Check for updates, Windows will automatically download the latest updates.
  
• In search type Check for updates and hit enter.

If the computer does not load up within 1 minute, I suggest you to Press & hold the power button down until the laptop or PC clicks off. Leave for 1 minute and start up again using the power button. The upgrading windows screen should appear
soon after.


Method 3:

I suggest you to follow the Fast startup option Settings, if you are able to boot to the desktop screen.

• 
  You may also try enabling the Fast Startup.
  
• 
  Press Windows
  + X key and click Control Panel.
  
• 
  Click on Power options.
  
• 
  Click on "Choose what the power buttons do".
  
• 
  Click on "Change settings that are currently unavailable". If it prompts to click on yes, then click
  yes.
  
• 
  Uncheck "Turn on fast startup (Recommended)" under shutdown settings.
  
• 
  Click Save changes
  to configure the settings.
  

Method 4: Try updating the display driver through device manager and check if it helps.

Follow the below steps:

• • 
    Press Windows key + X key when you are at desktop.
    
  • 
    Select Device Manager.
    
  • 
    Expand Display Adapter.
    
  • 
    Right click on the Display Adapter and click on
    Update driver software.
    

If that does not helps, I would suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the Display driver.

Please follow the steps mentioned below to uninstall the display driver.

• 
  Right click on start screen.
  
• 
  Select Device manager.
  
• 
  Expand Display adapters.
  
• 
  Right-click the display card driver and click
  Uninstall.
  
• 
  Windows will prompt you to confirm the device’s removal. Click
  OK to remove the driver.
  
• 
  After the un-installation is complete, reboot your computer as soon as possible.
  

Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.

Thank you.
