Windows 10: sluggish pc for no reason

Over the years my PC which is 9 years old now has started to get sluggish after installing Windows 10 a while ago. a while later I changed the MBR to GPT and gave it secure boot after that my PC started to act weird when I went to advanced options to find the only option being UEFI firmware settings and then boot times got slower from 2mins to 4mins and when I try to dual boot win11 with win10 it wouldn't, saying the boot configuration data cannot be found so after that I wanted to reset the pc but it said "Could not find recovery environment" so I found a youtube tutorial on how to fix it by

PC Sluggish After Waking From Sleep

Thank you for the update.

"Could it be that their drivers are not compatible with my current Windows build?" - Yes, there's a possibility that's why you're experiencing some performance issue.

Another thing, some users have reported that the possible reason why their computers are sluggish is fast startup (enabled by default). We may try disabling the fast startup, then check if the issue will still occur. To do so, please follow the steps below:

• Open Power Options.
  
• Click Choose what the power buttons do.
  
• Under Shutdown settings, uncheck Turn on fast startup (recommended).
  
• Click Save changes.
  

And we also suggest checking the Processes and Performance in Task Manager if you feel your computer is sluggish.

We would appreciate an update about how it went.
