    SetX slow on Windows 10


    Hello,


    We are using a batch file with a lot of setx command in it, needed for some apps.


    The problem is lately, some of brand new computers have the command SetX run very slowly : every SetX made would take up to 45 sec, while usually more likely 2 sec only.


    The thing is the .bat is taking like 1 hour to execute now, when it took like 5 mn in the past, making my coworker work 1/2 of his day.


    Here is what have been tried :


    - Disabled Kaspersky

    - Tried under another account, admin or not

    - Make myself owner of setx.exe

    - Tried with an older version of setx (as this one we had was pre installed with windows)

    - Tried on another computer (but same install of windows)

    - Updated Windows with lastests updates

    - Updated bios

    - Tried at startup, we did not launch any other app (but some like Skype launched, of course, and i killed some like that)


    Google Chrome isn't launched when we use that


    The computer i have the problem is on Windows 10 latest release (1803).


    Have you ever had the problem, is there a way to fix it ? I'm starting to believe the only way would be to change totally the scripts and turn them into powershell, but that would be a lot of work and we are not the one making the scripts at first.


    Thank you for your reply

    :)

    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

    windows 10 slow boot

    I was having a slow boot issue on my Windows 7 install a little while back. It would take about 30 - 40 extra seconds to boot up for whatever reason.

    I would try following these steps, while this didn't solve my issue, it did increase Read/Write to where it should be.

    Looks to be similar to this: https://www.back2gaming.com/focus-story/ssd-optimization-for-windows-10-windows-8-and-8-1/


    In the end, I had to reinstall my Windows 7 entirely to fix the booting issue. It was taking around 35 seconds to boot, and after the fresh install it takes about 7 seconds to boot.
