Slow System Performance on Windows 10 PC

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand that your PC is running slow. We appreciate your efforts in providing us the detailed information.

To check which updates were installed recently go to
Settings > Update & Security >

Meanwhile, you may want to try the following troubleshooting steps mentioned below:

Method 1:

If the issue persist, I suggest you refer and follow the suggestions from the article on how to
Improve PC Performance.

Note:
Modifying BIOS/ complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) settings incorrectly can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from booting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that any problems resulting from the configuring of BIOS/CMOS
settings can be solved. Modifications of the settings are at your own risk.

Note: Resetting the computer to factory setting will remove all hard drive data and reinstall the original operating system. I suggest you all you backup
important files and data before performing a factory reset.
