Windows 10: How to fix PC randomly slowing down?

My pc will randomly start lagging to the point where it takes several seconds for file explorer to pop up with no other programs running. It feels that I’ve tried everything from repairing corrupt files to memory diagnostics, clean booting, updating drivers, updating windows and restarting/ shutting down my pc. The most bizarre thing is that I’ll leave it over night and it will be fine in the morning and work for about a week or 2 before it does it again. The only thing i can think of that I haven’t tried is wiping the whole computer which i really don’t want to do.
