Windows 10: win 10 slow start and shut down

I hope I'm in the right forum

I have a win 10 pc with a hhd and ssd. Win 10 OS is installed on the ssd. both bootup and shut down (from the time I clicked shut down to the lite on the pc going off for shut down) would take something less than 5 or 6 seconds.

Then shut down started to last 4 to 5 minutes. The bootup time was ok, then it also started to take a long time also.

At the same time Edge would not come up full screen but automatedly minimize in the tool tray and couldn't get it to full screen.

I went thru the win 10 sys. maintenance-ok, power trouble shooter-ok, a registry fix-ok, win 10 defender scan-ok, sfc and chkdsk scan-ok, dism scan-ok, I used "Ccleaner+malware scan-minor stuff found.

With all of those things, times improved but not to where they were.

Shut down is still more than a minute vs a healthy few seconds and bootup is over 40 seconds vs

a few seconds also. Edge seems to have corrected itself.


I would appreciate any suggestions to me help in getting my solid state back to functioning the way its suppose too.


thank you

win 10 will not shut down properly

Hi Richard,

Usually, this issue occur due to outdated or corrupted device drivers, services or processes which are not shutting down properly, or third-party programs that prevents your computer to shut down properly. For better assistance, we'll be needing additional
information:

• Have you made any recent changes on your computer prior to the issue?
• Is this an error message Explorer\windows\settingsync\BackgroundUploadTask? If yes, where are you getting this message?

Meanwhile, we suggest that you run the Power troubleshooter as an initial troubleshooting step. To run the Power troubleshooter, follow the steps below:

• Press Windows key + X and select Settings.
• Choose Update & Security from the list.
• Click Troubleshoot in the left pane of the window.

We'll keep an eye out for your response.
