  1. several minutes for file to open


    Hello,

    I have an ssd, Samsung 980 pro.


    The thing I have observed is that sometimes the system works just fine, but at random times when I open any Folderdoesn't mater how many files are in it, it takes up to 5-7 minutes to open.


    I have surfed the web, but haven't come across any answers/solutions.


    Can you advice something ?

    :)

    PowerPoint file crashes PowerPoint upon opening

    since this happens in some of the computers only, suggest that you open the file on working computer and copy everything and paste to a new powerpoint file.
    most of the time it works to me. *Smile several minutes for file to open :)
