Windows 10: Windows 10 slow down over time.

Hi. Im using Windows 10 build 17134.765

The first time I use it, it's not smooth. By the time goes, it become slower and slower. By now it's often not responding even though just open windows explorer and Microsoft word.


I'm using Asus A442UR, so specification shouldn't be problem.


Process explorer didn't show any strange process


So far these are troubleshooting I tried.


Antivirus scan (kaspersky last month, g data last week)

Defrag

Checkdisk

Delete prefectch and temp content


I need further assistance and thank you

:)

 

Is it time for Windows 10 already?

Here's a good step by step guide on doing a fresh install.

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

windows 10 slow boot

I was having a slow boot issue on my Windows 7 install a little while back. It would take about 30 - 40 extra seconds to boot up for whatever reason.

I would try following these steps, while this didn't solve my issue, it did increase Read/Write to where it should be.

In the end, I had to reinstall my Windows 7 entirely to fix the booting issue. It was taking around 35 seconds to boot, and after the fresh install it takes about 7 seconds to boot.
