Windows 10: Very slow boot (even after replacing ssd)

So I had this problem for a while now, boot takes very long time.

I thought it was my SSD starting to die out, So I bought a new one, NVME this time Samsung 970 EVO Plus,
I cloned my old ssd to the new one, and now using the new one instead for operation system, and still the boot is slow

I'm not sure at this point what could be the cause, by slow boot I mean the circular loader that shows when windows is loading up,

v3.Boot_1.rar - Google Drive
download for my WPR log.

My computer has 64gb ram
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz, 3600 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)
Nvidia 1070 GTX
+ the new NVME ssd driver I just mentioned, why is this happening?

slow ssd

Hi,

Slow SSD performance can be caused by several factors like Hybernation mode and Superfetch service.

As an initial troubleshooting step, try disabling Hibernate mode since it is unnecessary for the SSD system as it takes too much time to boot from it.

• Open Command Prompt (Admin).
• Enter the administrator credentials once prompted.
• In the Command Prompt window, type or copy and paste this command:
  
  powercfg -h off
• Press Enter.

Note: Once Hibernate is already disabled, you can also free up some space to improve its performance.

We also recommenddisabing Superfetch as one way to optimize the SSD performance:

• Press Windows key + R to open the Run
  dialog box.
• Type services.msc and press Enter.
• Scroll down and right-click on Superfetch.
• Select Stop.

Update us with the outcome so we can provide further assistance.

Windows could be booting up slow if there is more application to startup when Windows boot for the first time, below are few of the steps you can try.



Method 1:

1. Try to
   boot your computer into Safe Mode and check if it still take time.
   
2. If the system boots fine then it’s the third party service or application that is causing the slow boot issue.

Slow Boot With W10, Samsung SSD

I have a Gigabyte P-35x v4 with an i7 5700HQ, 16 gbs of RAM and a Samsung 850 EVO ssd.

Initially, doing a clean install of the latest Windows 10 iso, it booted in less than ten seconds. After fully booting and installing updates, it now takes about a minute and forty seconds, with most of the time spend sitting at the Gigabyte splash screen.
I have been unable to find the culprit.

I have tried doing a clean boot and it takes just as long, so it's not any third party services.

I have taken out every other drive, so it's not trying to boot off of another type of media.

I have reformatted, repartitioned and reinstalled Windows multiple times as well.

The ssd performs great otherwise, it's just very slow to boot.

Any suggestions?
