Windows 10: win 10 very slow load time when cold

Repeat the command again. Sometimes the first time there is that error.
If that did not help, try this:
Navigate to C:\windows\performance\winsat\datastore and delete all xml files.
Next, type in a elevated command prompt : Winsat Formal -Clean
Reboot

 

thank you it did work the second time, Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.14393]

C:\WINDOWS\system32>LODCTR /R

will see what the boot is like in the morning, thank you again, john

 

Do you have Latest BIOS installed? It is a "must" have.

You could try the WinSAT that I told you above, it is not doing any harm to PC, at worst scenario, it stays like it is now, but it could be the "solution".

 

LODCTR /R did not help, so today I do the WinSAT and see if that helps, yes I updated the bios last week that did not help, thank you

 

OK. Do that with WinSAT and see.

Now, that only happens if you disconnect completely from mains? If you let it connected to mains but Powered off, that does not happens?
Is that right?
How old is you Mainboard?

 

hi, I don't normally turn off at the mains, just the off switch, although I did switch off at mains when I went on hols it took just as long when I came back, my main board is about 4 years old, Manufacturer Gigabyte Technology Co. Ltd.

thanks john

 

OK.
If you RESTART (without Power Off PC), does it take so long or is much quicker?

 

hi, I don't normally turn off at the mains, just the off switch, although I did switch off at mains when I went on hols it took just as long when I came back, my main board is about 4 years old,

 

If you RESTART Windows, not Shut Down just restarting, does it take such long time to Boot?

 

no if I do a restart normally or update it starts in 1 -2 mins, its only overnight, and in the morning it takes 10 to 20 mins

 

OK. Probably you have a Hardware issue.

You could Test Memory modules : Open an elevated Command Prompt and Type - mdsched.exe and press enter.
Restart
Windows Memory Test will start automatically

Try to swap memory modules, or change to other slots , or put it as "Single-Channel".

 

hi done a Windows Memory Test no problems were detected, jb

 

Well, If you have CPU/Memory/Graphics Overclocked, then put it to "Normal".
Remove / Disconnect all not strictly necessary Cards/Drives from Motherboard and see it the issue persists.

Just as a random thought, what USB devices are plugged in?
