Windows 10: PC slow after update

I use my pc for gaming and it did an update when I shut it down. After I turned it back on I noticed it was extremely laggy when I was playing again. I haven't noticed it being slow while doing anything else, but obviously running a game takes a lot more. I tried some troubleshooting tips online but I still haven't figured out how to fix it since I'm not too good with this kind of stuff. Scans can't find anything wrong and the drivers seem to be working. It's also not overheating, which wasn't a problem before anyway. Can anyone help?
