Windows 10 takes 20 minutes to boot

I have a three-year-old MSI laptop running Windows 10. Recently, it has taken forever to boot. Initially, the slow down was a "mere" 2-3 minutes, but now it's about 20 minutes to go from POST to the Windows 10 login.

I found this answer in my search:

Redirecting. Unfortunately, it didn't help. Here is everything I've tried:

• Disable fast book
  Ran SFC scan - no errors found
  Cleared up space on my booting drive
  "Clean boot" - disable all the startup apps (as described on the linked page)
  Ram test using mdsched.exe - no errors found
  Set the PC to best performance (text looks quite ugly now)
  

The last solution I can find is to reset Windows 10. I'd rather avoid that if I can. Any final suggestions?

 

Wifi connection cutting off every 20 minutes

My internet is turning itself off about every 20 minutes, and I have to go to the network and sharing center and run troubleshoot wifi connection 3 a several times before it goes back to normal.

What I've checked:

• The internet works without fail on my phone. The problem is surely on this device.
  
• The wifi connection 3 thing on network and sharing center is the thing that always goes offline (has a red cross next to it)
  
• My intelligence... I'm pretty bad at computing so please explain this in steps.
  

I'd really appreciate it if someone could tell me how to stop this inconvenience from occurring every 10-20 minutes, its really frustrating. I need to answer questions and get more reputation on writers SE .

Thanks. By the way, I ran a scan. Its not a virus or malware, whatever else it could be.

 

OS update caused Windows-10 to lock up after 20-30 minutes

An OS update from about a week or two ago caused headphone audio out to go dead (even though the control panel does see the signal) AND Windows-10 locks up after 20-30 minutes, regardless of activity. Need suggestions for resolving these issues.
