Windows 10: My Windows is having long boot and slowing down

Hello


Good day


I have been working with my system for quite a while now and it has been fine.


It started slowing down of recent and taking very long to boot. Apps also slowed down and started hanging. Chrome pages also took time to load


Microsoft not responding began to pop-up.


Most times. I just have to forcefully shut down the system.


When I try turning it on, it shows a blank screen for a very long while over 5 minutes before coming on. And then it shows fixing disk for another long time.


After then, it still continues to slow down

:)

 

windows 10 slow boot

I was having a slow boot issue on my Windows 7 install a little while back. It would take about 30 - 40 extra seconds to boot up for whatever reason.

I would try following these steps, while this didn't solve my issue, it did increase Read/Write to where it should be.

In the end, I had to reinstall my Windows 7 entirely to fix the booting issue. It was taking around 35 seconds to boot, and after the fresh install it takes about 7 seconds to boot.

 

Slow boot

Hi Craig,

Boot performance may slow can be due to corruptions. To assist you better, kindly answer the following questions:

• Have you made any recent changes before this issue occur?
• Have you tried booting up your laptop in Safe Mode and check if the issue still persist?
• What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

We're looking forward to your response.

 

Extremely long and incomplete boot

This may be a long shot. My PC hung at boot yesterday after typing the password - see Can't Login - Further Troubleshooting Steps?

I ran chkdsk c: /spotfix and all is now fine. Someone has also suggested running chkdsk c: /r.
