Windows 10: Slow Windows 11 Boot Time Issue - Need Help!

Hi everyone,I recently upgraded from Windows 10 to Windows 11 through a clean installation. I formatted my C drive completely, leaving the files on my D drive untouched. However, since the upgrade, I've been experiencing a significant issue with the booting time. It takes almost 1 minute 50 seconds to 2 minutes or more for the Windows login screen to appear. During this time, I can only see the loading indicator. This is in stark contrast to my previous boot time of 10-15 seconds on Windows 10.Here are some additional details about my laptop:Model: Asus Vivobook 14 D415UACPU: Ryzen 5500URAM: 1

Win10 Slow boot time. Help debug with Windows Performance Analyzer

Hi,

I think that the issue is caused by the "Generic HDD SCSI Disk Device" driver





you have 8 disk drive attached to your computer:

1. Samsung SSD 860 EVO 500GB
2. Samsung SSD 850 EVO 250GB
3. ST4000DM004-2CV104
4. TOSHIBA DT01ACA200
5. WDC WD20EARX-008FB0
6. Generic HDD SCSI Disk Device
7. Seagate BUP BK SCSI Disk Device
8. Kingston DT Elite G2 USB Device

I would suggest you uninstall the Generic driver from the device manager;

• Open device manager and display the hidden devices;
• Generic "HDD SCSI Disk Device" under disk driver and uninstall it.

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.
