  1. Slow boot time on Windows 10


    Hi everyone!From the past few days, I've noticed my startup has increased from 7-8 seconds to 17-18 seconds.I've disabled almost all of the startup programs except for an Audio program.I suspected that the problem might be with my antivirus softwareKaspersky IS as it was not available in the startup tab of task manager.After I disabled auto-startup in antivirus settings,my boot time seemed normal as earlier.So,my question:is there any way I can delay the startup of my antivirus,like,starting after a few minutes of booting my PC?Thank you

    :)

    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.

    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.

    Slow boot time on Windows 10

    Windows 10 Boot times issue

    The two are linked as you've observed and as I mentioned.

    What puzzles me is the change after the power outage, which would suggest some form of corruption, which does not seem the case.

    The other thing that can cause slow boot times are certain updates. For example this update:
    KB4100347 Intel microcode updates for Windows 10 v1803 - September 13 - Page 9 - Windows 10 Forums

    So I'm now wondering if the change in boot time is actually unrelated to your power outage. Using WPR as @zinou suggests is then the next step.
