Multiple Issues After Resetting Laptop

Hi,

I recently reset my laptop and since then I've been experiencing a whole host of issues:

• Windows search bar doesn't work
• Shop app won't open
• Won't allow me to change location settings
• Clock/calendar on my toolbar is unresponsive when I click on it

Any ideas what the problem might be, please? Advice / suggestions are very much appreciated!

Cheers,

 

Win 10 - HDD is unbearably slow

Since the upgrade from Win8.1 to Win10, the HDD of my laptop became unbearably slow. Please look at these transfer speeds:





0.3MB/sec????? Floppy drives had such a transfer rate.

The laptop is 6 months old, a Lenovo Yoga core i5. The HDD is Western Digital Blue UltraSlim 500GB (WD5000MPCK) type.
All drivers are up to date (according to Device Manager).
I have ESET Nod32 virus scanner installed.

I turned off Windows write-cache buffer flushing as recommended here, but that did not help. Do you have any advice?

UPDATE:

Symptoms: After upgrade to Win10, the laptop became unbearably slow using 100% HDD all the time. After restart, I have to leave the laptop unattended for approx 5-10 minutes, until the HDD catches up and have some breath.

Tried (and failed) treatments:
I turned off indexing service to lower HDD load, I did de-fragmenting, none helped.

Measurable issues: The laptop is unable to play back HD videos taken by mobile phone (6 min = 1.2GB) because of HDD starvation. Pendrive transfer rate of huge video files is steady 6MB/sec (same pendrive on other laptop showed 23MB/s).
