    Sluggish PC after the anniversary update


    First post here so hello to everyone out there *Smile
    I have a budget tablet with low end specs which was working fine, even with its limitations. It's a Chuwi Hi12 Tablet (windows 10 and Android 5.1 dual boot). Since the update it's sluggish, frame dropping, Edge freezes, etc. I did the update a week ago on my home PC (much more powerful) and didn't notice any drop in performance I decided to delete the old windows version to save space on my tablet, since it only has 64gb storage.
    Is there a way to fix this or, even better, will a future windows update fix it automatically or am I being too optimistic?

    Cheers

    :)

  2. Windows 10 Anniversary Edition Upgrade Problems

    After the Win 10 anniversary update, my pc is running so slow that it is not fun anymore. There is a hesitation of about 2 seconds with every click of the mouse and the pc in general is very sluggish. I tried to turn Cortana off to free up resources but
    can't get rid of it. Tried to roll back to the prior build but system restore will not let me.

    Sluggish PC after the anniversary update

    Hi, freezing issues and problems have been reported by a number (just search the internet) and MS is said to be working on some of these issues. Many people are not experiencing them.

    You have 10 days to roll back; your best option may be to do that and defer the upgrade if you have '10 pro.

    Thanks but as I said "I deleted the previous windows version" so that's not an option.

    Hello, unless you can fix the issue, you have the following options:
    1. Clean install of the previous version
    2. If you are in the strongly recommended habit of creating disk images (which everyone really should.. so many advantages.. you can restore a previously created disk image
    3. Wait and hope MS fixes it

    Fix? You will need to try to diagnose the problem with no guarantee of a successful outcome.
    1. How is it in Safe Mode?
    2. After a clean boot?
