Windows 10: Windows 10 randomly starts lagging

Hi, recently I have been experiencing an annoying issue with Windows. It seems whenever I play a game the OS starts lagging and the audio starts to lag/glitch. I have never experienced this issue before. With Assetto Corsa, the audio and OS starts lagging after 5 - 10 seconds and when playing any other game around a minute. It is very annoying as the games are unplayable while this is happening and I'm too scared to play any longer after the lag starts as I might have a driver crash, etc. However, another person in my family who is the Administrator doesn't have this issue.PC specs:AMD Ryzen 7

Computer starts randomly lagging

Sorry to clarify, the internet is not lagging. By lagging I mean the computer is freezing (not completely) and it takes like a couple of second for each action to go through. For example clicking on the window icon > power > shut down, these steps could take up like a minute.

I've ran ESET OnlineScan and it found no malware. I'm also using malwarebyte and windows security and scheduled to scan everyday so I don't think I have a virus. (I never download anything phishy either).

I've ran all these as well:
DISM /Online /CLEANUP-IMAGE /CheckHealth
DISM /Online /CLEANUP-IMAGE /RestoreHealth
SFC /scannow

I tried using Driver Easy to update my drivers. The thing with this is it's so random. It hasn't happened since I last posted in this thread then just now it happened again randomly *Sad

I don't remember when it started happening because it's been a while and I've just lived with it whenever it happens I just restart my pc. Is there some kind of error logging I can view as soon as it happens after I restart my pc?

Anyone have idea? *Sad

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
