Windows 10: my windows 10 laptop suddenly got super slow during the 23rd of december 2024 and is still...

i have tried defragging the hard drive, optimizing windows 10, using a registry cleaner ccleaner switching power options, disabling services and the best i could get was an unstable 30 fps on fortnite at lowest settings compared to before when it had like 120-180 fps, also my pc doesnt have the supported cpu to get windows 11 either, i have also tried letting the laptop cool off and using it in an air conditioned environment and it still was really bad. i have did sfc /scannow already and a lot of other things which fix corrupted registry files, but there are no corrupted registry files acco

Lenovo laptop suddenly slow

I have a new Lenovo E580 laptop (bought January 2019) which suddenly started to run very slow. I have especially noticed it with build times in Visual Studio and loading times for a local website in IIS.

I have tried to reinstall Windows 10 Pro by formatting the entire computer but it’s still slow.

Laptop spec:

• Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
  
• CPU: i7-8550U 2.00GHz
  
• 16 GB RAM
  
• 512 SSD
  

Software where I really notice the slowness:

• Visual Studio Community 2019 Version 16.3.9
  
• IIS to Windows 10
  

I have tried to setup an older laptop with the same software installed as the new laptop, to compare the loading times. The old laptop has a very similar spec. (i7-4700MQ 2.40GHz, 16GB RAM, 256 SSD). The load time for a local website on the new laptop is 78 seconds where on the old is 30 seconds. On the new laptop it used to be around 30 seconds as well.

It’s not just Visual Studio and IIS that is slow it’s the entire laptop. I thought it would be fixed by reinstalling Windows but there were no improvements. I suspect it’s a hardware issue, but I don’t get any errors, and everything looks fine.

Does anyone have suggestions to what I can try to pinpoint this issue or is it better to contact Lenovo support, as the new laptop is still under warranty?
