  1. Etremely slow system


    Folks, I run Windows 10 on a Dell laptop. Lately, it’s been running very slowly Apps have been “stuttering”—stopping for 30 to 60 seconds—and the response to touchpad inputs often lags by 5 to 10 seconds. Also, my apps Firefox, Microsoft Mahjong, Libre Office—you name it are running so slowly that I could start an app, go to the bathroom, and come back to find the app is still loading!



    Here are the things I’ve done so far:


    • Cleaned out all the junk I could find with four different utilities;


    • Run Microsoft Defender my real-time protection and several others Trend Micro, MalwareBytes, KVRT, Sophos, Spybot, SuperAntiSpyware, IObit Malware Fighter and Glary Malware Hunter once on fast scan and once where the program allowed for a full scan of my computer nothing which made any observable difference was found;


    • Defragged my disk;


    • Run “sfc /scannow” which found nothing;


    • Run “dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth” which also found nothing;


    • Stopped all unnecessary startups;


    • Looked for “processor hogs” none found;


    • Uninstalled unnecessary apps;


    • Made sure all my software is up to date;


    • Checked my power plan Balanced; and


    • Run the System Troubleshooter which also found nothing.



    I haven’t yet tried stopping the visual effects I’m not sure that would be worth the trouble in speed increase, and I’mveryreluctant to reinstall the system I have about 100 different apps I’d need to reinstall. Can anyone suggest anything else I can try or anywhere else I can look?

    :)
