    New laptop purchsased and sometimes runs very slow switching between applications, then...


    Hi,


    About 2 years ago I purchased a new laptop and ever since I bought it, it sometimes runs very slow when switching between applications and watching videos on YouTube. The video doesn't play and it hangs with the timer showing up. Eventually after waiting for 5 or 10 minutes, I notice that the audio icon in my system tray shows the red 'X' icon and then says there are no audio drivers installed. The only way to fix this is to troubleshoot the problem or reboot the computer. After I fix the problem it happens again most days. I am not sure if this is linked to my computer running slowly, but normally when my computer runs so slowly that it becomes unusable, rebooting it normally fixes this as well. I can't seem to put my laptop under hard work without it running slowly.

    I have tried all the problems listed for the audio, but none of them have fixed the problem permanently. I wonder whether it is a Windows 10 issue, or a faulty hardware issue?


    My sound card uses Realtek High Definition audio drivers.


    Thanks for your help,

    :)

    I am trying to cleaning the following steps

    1. temp

    2. %temp%

    3. Recent

    4. Prefetch

    I am cleaning every thing, but booting is taking 3 min time. and running applications is very slow.

    I have a PC in my office, it is Pentium Processer, It is running very fast. But I am using original OS, original ms office and tally only, there is no other software using in my laptop.

    Laptop Windows 10 is updated up to July 2019. But booting and opening applications is still slow.

    kindly suggest me how to open windows 10 with min 30 seconds

    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.
