    Long boot up time after joining domain


    I've been running Windows 10 x64 Pro (Threshold 2 compilation). I used to run it independently from the domain for a couple of weeks and it was fast as a hurricane

    However my company finally decided to put us all into a domain. I have no technical details, but my best guess is they are using Office 365 services to do so, as we certainly have no own network infrastructure of that kind.

    My problem is that after joining the domain my boot time tripled! I have checked the group policy to see if there are any strange entries, but found only three items - network folders mapping, printers mapping and "My Documents" mapping into OneDrive for Business. I've run the Process Monitor but log examination revealed no time gaps or significant delays.

    I've read at this and other forums that typically such delay is caused by the domain controller situated outside the local network, but I'm not sure of that. My problem occurs both when in local network and outside it (no network access).

    Can anyone advise me how to investigate this issue? What can cause such a huge delay?

    :)

    You mention domain a couple of times - is it a domain joined PC? I've experienced random issues renaming a domain joined PC in the past, although it's a little more long winded I've always removed the PC from the domain, renamed it then re-joined the Domain
    under the new name. This has always worked for me. Of course you will need a domain admin account too.

    Windows 10 Technical Preview has expired.

    Or you could set the time and date in the bios back to September sometime, boot up as normal and then back up your data somewhere safe like an external drive before formatting the hard drive and doing a fresh install.

    I had exactly the same problem and this simple method allowed me to get my data without too much trouble. If it is a domain joined account you will most likely have to login to the local administrator account as time sync etc would stop you logging on to
    the domain.
