    computer takes 8 minutes to boot  

    Hi, I did those 5 steps and no luck. There is not much going on at startup. I reformatted my computer 5 days ago. Even after I installed windows, I didn't download anything and just rebooted and it took 8 minutes.

    In your Windows Performance Analyzer result "Winlogon Init" is taking too much time. 1. In "Task Manager > Startup" disable unneeded items 2. Empty "Recycle Bin" 3. Run Disk Cleanup
    • Select Clean up system files
    • Check categories in "Files to delete" and click OK
    4. Check these temp folders and delete any files
    • C:\Windows\Temp
    • C:\Users\<your-user>\AppData\Local
    5. Clear browser data including history and cookies
