Windows 10: Optimize Performance of Windows 10

It works just fine for me in Chrome using the same skin as you.

As a test, see how it works in Internet Explorer.

 

Here Brink is this what you want

 

I've fixed your settings, it should be there now.

 

if that is in reply to me thank you it now works

 

maybe you should consider adding update speed in task manager to your list i find it seems to make a big difference

 

Yep, I have priority order on a long list of to dos for a tutorial. *Smile

 

I ran the Change Maximum Download Connections per Server Limit in Internet Explorer Reg file and it set them as 22 Decimal. I changed them manually to 16.

Brink, what is your opinion on the turn off reserved bandwidth trick?

I'd say that it was misunderstood in that article, and not really needed to be set. See this below instead. *Smile

QoS Bandwidth Reserve Limit

 

After reading threw the thread I set it to 0%. I only use video streaming(youtube) in IE11, browser downloads and uTorrent.

 

Thanks for author post.

 

I had a problem lately, in that, my installers folder(see window shot) I keep in Downloads, which contains ALL my current & updated installers was loading verrrrrry slowly, and that instance of File Explorer would remain unresponsive for a couple of minutes, even though I use 2 Samsung SSDs.



Even after right clicking something, it would take quite a while to get the context menu.

I figured out, it had started after I re-downloaded the GIMP installer for saving(which has a new installer for the same version, because of Corrupt Windows Installer Warnings). It's almost 1GB large.

Knowing installers are very compressed folders, I figured out that when opening the Installers folder with unzipped installers, Windows was trying to read all the files and find the icons for them too.

So today I zipped(just using the built in compressor) all the larger installers, and now the folder loads fast again.
It seems that zipping them tells windows not to try to read them, until you're ready to extract, so it kind of "sandboxes" the installer.

I hope this helps anyone else that has this problem.

***Note: if it's a data folder that you use often, then you might just have to create separate folders for the larger files, and re-link any programs using them to it***

 

Good info Cliff. Who would have ever thought? *Thumbs

 

where is the tutorial of "Enable or Disable Energy Saver Mode"?

 

Hello evildog1, *Smile

Sorry about that. That older tutorial had gotten replaced by the one below now.

Ha I finally found the thread/tut where this actually belongs*Smile

A while ago, I made an Event Viewer custom view to see boot times and posted it here: Boot Time with SSD and Win 10 is 90 sec. - Windows 10 Forums
I now have made a better version, that also shows you what program was slowing a specific boot time down.
Sometimes it happens that a program is PendingFileRename, another words, it needs to update files when it's service is not running, or it's .dll's/shared .dll's are not in use, so it updates at boot or restart, and that can cause a one time slow down.




If, on the other hand, you see the same program repeatedly causing a serious slow down, configure Startup Delay.

Then unzip it
Unblock it in properties, by right clicking the zip file, select Properties, then select "Unblock" in the bottom right hand corner.
Then import it into Event Viewer:
