Windows 10: Poor performance Windows 10

Of late my computer Lenovo all-in-one with Windows 10 has started performing very slow. It takes a while for the system to respond to commands clicking on a program to start it, or going to a site .... I have just looked at the task manager and it shows 79 !!! instances of svchost, with most saying "not allowed" or "disabled" and 7 instances of runbroker "disabled. I use Firefox and task manager showed 4 instances of firefox I only have one running at any one time and who knows I'm not a technician what other program is there and misbehaving? I'm just a home user, don't do gaming or any graphics or anything that needs extra power, so I don't know what's going on. I have not done anything to the computer myself and throwing the computer against the wall in anger for some reason doesn't seem to help .

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
