Windows 10: how to prevent windows performance analyser trace files from being created

Win 10 Pro

Winver: 20H2 19042.746


I was searching through my temp folder and noticed windows performance analyser trace files eg C6343454-8859-4525-8795-51BDF661A408.Diagnose.0.etl


I want to stop these files from being created.


Would running the network diagnostic tool create them?


I have investigated this solution-:

Traces

Trace malware is a detection which typically indicates harmless pieces of leftovers also known
as remnants (registry keys, file fragments, folders) generally found after cleaning a previous malware infection. Traces are typically useless and not dangerous since the primary malicious file(s) has been removed. A
Malware.Trace detection is just another name used by Malwarebytes, SUPERAntiSpyware and other security vendors for trace malware.

Performing the scans suggested by
José Antonio Pontón Posada CEO should remove most of them.

 

Cannot perform backup...Windows asks to create a folder

I am having problems with the back up files, and every time i get a back up i get this message ( Create the missing folder "
C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\OneDrive\CATS 6A", as listed in the error message). Create a missing folder was suggested by one of the community members, Pls let me know the steps to follow in order to create a missing folder.

Thanks,

Start-up and After sleep takes forever along with software

Ok,

I suggest you doing two things:

1. take a boot trace, to see what's happen in the post boot phase
2. Take a trace to measure the startup time of chrome

1. The boot trace:

1. Open a command line as an Administrator (Run As Administrator)
2. Type the following command in the command line Windows: cd %programfiles(x86)%\Windows Kits\10\Windows Performance Toolkit
3. Type the following command to start recording the boot trace: wpr -start GeneralProfile -start CPU -onoffscenario Boot -onoffresultspath c:\wpr -numiterations 1 -filemode
4. Compress the .ETL file generated under the C:\WPR path (very important)

2. Measure the Chrome startup time:

After the boot trace ended, process the following steps:

• Type this command "wpr -start generalprofile -start CPU"; this will start trace recording.
• While recording the trace, open Chrome
• After chrome is started, type this command to stop trace recording "wpr -stop %userprofile%\desktop\MyTrace.etl". The trace file will be created on your desktop.
• Compress the resulting file (Important)
