Windows 10: Windows 10 performance continues to degrade

I am a web developer and I rely heavily on my Windows 10 computer when using tools like Visual Studio and SQL Server Management studio and Outlook. I have been using the same developer related tools for the past several years. In the past 6-10 months I have noticed and increase in the frequency of the "Not Responding" message across all of my apps. I keep my OS current with all windows updates but according to the note in Windows Updates, my processor will not support Windows 11.I suspect that Microsoft is intentionally degrading the performance of Windows 10 in an effort to force people

GPS performance degraded ol of a sudden.

It's not even a month when i got lumia 920, its gps isn't able to catch direction as it used to when it's new, its performance degraded ol of a sudden since 2 days, wat can be the reason, please suggest as GPS is very important for me.

 

Startup performance degradation...

There's an app on my system that causes startup performance degradation:





The file name in the event viewer is "Devic" and in details tab, the folder name displayed as "C:\Devic". This performance degradation does not happen every day and presumably, during the other days the start up is normal.

The issue is that there's no such file or folder name on my system. Neither the file search with Windows Explorer/TreeSize, nor registry search, running both standard and admin account could find it.

Windows Explorer is set to show hidden items, but beyond that, I don't know how to find these files and folders. Are there other ways to find these items on the system?

TIA...

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
