    Resetting my PC will that help speeding up my slow and freezing computer?


    My PC is running slow and very ackward. Tried cleaning disk and etc. Did not help. Also no malware from what I can see. Would backing up my files to one drive and resetting my computer would help? I want to increase the speed of my computer but also do not want to lose my files! I am not very computer literate but need help! Thank you!

    :)

    Slow Internet speed on only one computer.

    Hi Cody,

    Slow internet speed on one of your computer could be due to the following:

    • Outdated network adapter driver
    • Different Wi-Fi chipset
    • Computer processing speed

    Make sure that the network driver of your computer(s) are always updated.

    We also suggest you to contact your internet service provider for them to check your internet connection speed and give you more information.

    Feel free to post back if you have other concerns.
     
  3. Slow Download Speed

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft forums.

    • I would suggest you to test the speed using any of the speed test website or app to confirm the upload and download speed.
    • I also suggest you to reset the wireless router to check if that helps.
    • You may plug in the Ethernet cable if available and check the speed.


    Hope the information is helpful. Feel free to write to us for any other assistance with Windows, we’ll be glad to assist you

    freezing or slowing of the HP computer

    I have freezing or very slow performance of my computer. Sometimes restart make a difference. I am thinking the strength of the internet signal might be a reason. Wi-Fi properties do not show the strength as Microsoft suggested. Or speed might be the other
    reason. I might need to talk with internet provider regarding the strength and speed of the signal. But maybe it has something to do with Windows 10?
