  1. Please help a poor noob such as myself with slow windows 10 after updates


    So I just got a new computer about a month ago or a little less than a month. It is an HP and it was cheap but it’s a decent computer and has good ratings. I know the computer itself is OK but I’ve been reading about updating Windows 10 and it’s slowing computers down.

    I got it and it had windows S mode. The one I had before this was the exact same computer and actually had this really random thing happened to it where it basically just died and I had to return it but it was working up to speed and was doing well. Now I have this one and I updated windows and got rid of S mode and all of a sudden my computer is just slow and shitty.

    Can someone please help me fix the situation or give me a simple way of doing this because I am totally ignorant in this field. If I need to provide more information I will happily do so thank you

    Honestly I almost wish I had spent the extra hundreds of dollars to get a Mac because I never would’ve had this problem on a Mac this is why I hate PCs because they’re more complicated for fools like myself
