    WDADesktop Service - could it be causing Windows 10 & Window 11 Slowing then Freezing?


    Started having bluescreen issues with my Surface Pro6 last year about the same time as this WDADesktopService.exe began to ghost on my tablet. Tried all sorts to diagnose the issue especially after a few disastrous losses of data. This year I decided to upgrade reluctantly to Windows 11 and it has only gotten worse - 3-4 crashes daily. Grateful for any help.

    :)

    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

    WDADesktop Service - could it be causing Windows 10 & Window 11 Slowing then Freezing?

    windows 10 slow boot

    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.

    Looks to be similar to this: https://www.back2gaming.com/focus-story/ssd-optimization-for-windows-10-windows-8-and-8-1/


    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.
