    I had been suspecting for a while now that something may be wrong with my computer (or Windows 10), and I could never quite put my finger on it.



    The laptop hasn't gone through much wear and tear, especially in the last two years since I've barely used it.



    Basic things like typing, and clicking (and getting a reasonable response time) just take forever. Opening a folder just makes the system freeze and I just recently did a reset and a refresh.



    Playing games isn't a problem but everything else is
