    Why does windows 10 take so long to load?


    Why does windows 10 take so long to load?First I should say that this computer is about 9 years old . The welcome screen appears pretty quickly. After I put in my password, It might take 10-15 minutes for the desktop icons to populate. pressing control+alt+delete and then canceling that, helps speed up the process a little but not much. Also browsers get stuck occasionally. I don't know if that is related. Below are all the things I have tried to remedy the problem:1 check RAM memory original 4 gb ok2 plenty of unused space on 1 terrabyte hard drive3
