Windows 10: Laptop running slow all of a sudden

I was using my laptop normally then the fan suddenly went full speed. I restarted the laptop, but the fan still ran in high speed and it was really slow. I checked Task manager and saw Antimalware Service Executable running on high RAM 150-200MB. I tried all the tricks I could find on Google but nothing changed. I installed a clean Windows 10 Twice and now I'm on Windows 11, I also tried to swap the NvMe SSD but nothing changed. Laptop goes slow, Fan still runs high, Antimalware Service Executable still eats all of the RAM. Hope someone can find a solution.ASUS A512DRyzen 7 3700U8GB 6GB Rec

Laptop is running very slow

Hi Thomas,

What all troubleshooting steps have you performed?

As an initial troubleshooting step, I would request you to execute the System Maintenance troubleshooter and check if there is any improvement in the speed of laptop.

To perform common maintenance tasks in Windows, such as cleaning up unused files and shortcuts, try using the System Maintenance troubleshooter to automatically find and fix problems. For example, the System Maintenance troubleshooter looks for unused files
and shortcuts that you can clean up or remove so that your computer can run faster.

Please follow the steps to run System Maintenance troubleshooter
on the computer:

• 
  Type “Control Panel” on the search box.
  
• 
  Click on Troubleshooting.
  
• 
  Click on View all option on the left side of the Windows.
  
• 
  Click on System Maintenance option.
  
• 
  Click on Next and follow the onscreen instructions to troubleshoot the issue.
  

Please revert if you face any issues with slow speed of laptop.

Thank you.
