    Slow windows 10 on PC


    Hi everyone, so I built a gaming PC about 4 months ago and I have had issues with windows 10. Every time I try to open google chrome, volume mixer, Bluetooth settings, or basically anything else it takes like ten seconds to open, as you can imagine its really annoying especially for the amount of money that I paid for this PC.

    I tried everything with chrome but nothing worked except for the first time when I turned off hardware acceleration, it was opening super quick and even the volume mixer and everything else was super quick, but then I restarted my PC and now everything is slow again even when I turn hardware acceleration off.



    PC specs:

    GPU: Asus RTX 2070 super

    CPU: Intel i7-9700K

    Ram: 16 GB

    Storage: 1 TB Samsung 970 EVO

    MB: ASUS Z390-E Gaming

    PS: Corsair RM 750X (had an Asus but it broke)

    Cooler: Be quit Dark Rock Pro 4

    Case: NZXT H710

    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

    Hi,

    To assist you with your concern, we suggest you to run the System Maintenance Troubleshooter to check and see why your PC is running slow and unresponsive. Here are the steps:

    • Press Windows Key + X.
    • Click on Control Panel.
    • Select Troubleshooting. If you cant find the option, click View By and select Large Icons.
    • On the left pane, click on View All.
    • Click on System Maintenance to run the troubleshooter.

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
