    Browsers and other apps takes too long when open files from disk.


    I have my PC reinstalled Windows 10 Pro (clean install) two days ago.
    I realize that most apps take long time to load file from disk and removable devices, but using explorer to open it is still normal.

    For example when I use IDM and choose location to save files, it take very long to browse to that location, it also happen in all browsers (Chrome 64bits - ver 53, Firefox -ver47, and Opera).

    I got SSD for Windows (C:\ ) and HDD (D:\ )for storage, most files locate in D: (D: was defragged)

    :)

    Browser and Apps taking too long time to open.

    Hi,

    You could face this issue when you to many processes are running in background or if you do not have enough free memory space.

    I suggest you to boot to clean boot state of your computer and then try to open the app.
    You can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This kind of startup is known as a "cleanboot." A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    How to perform a clean boot to troubleshoot a problem in Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista

    Note: Please refer to the section:How to reset the computer to start as usual after troubleshooting with clean boot of the Kb article to boot the computer in normal startup after fixing the
    issue.

    Write to us with the status of the issue. We will assist you further.

    Hi Leo,

    I understand that you have Windows 10, the steps for Windows 10 are same as of Windows 8.1. Only the difference is press
    Window Key + R Key, type msconfig.msc.

    Now you can perform the steps from Steps 3 under Windows 8.1 and Windows 8
    heading.

    Browsers and other apps takes too long when open files from disk.

    I've had problems with Windows Defender causing slow downs like this. As a test, turn off Real Timer Protection in Windows Defender, just to see if that resolves the problem. If yes then try a different AV program perhaps?

    I'm still using Defender but it slows down some activities, like when I open toolbars from the Taskbar, it takes a long time for them to populate. I may switch to another Av program for awhile to do some testing.
