Windows 10: Windows 10 Slowdown Issues

Hi.

My Notebook, with win 10 Installed, often slow down, and occasionally, it stops responding, that now when I type this message, twice I got halted for about 5 mins, waiting for my notebook for a response, before I can resume typing.


Here's my specification, which shouldn't have any real problem when running basic software like a browser for now, or office for example.


Windows 10 64 bit

Intel core i5 Processor

4GB RAM

1TB Harddisk


And here's the troubleshooting I have done already :


Recently fresh recovery, so anything is lost - no need disk cleanup, disk defragment, etc

sfc/scannow - no problem found

chkdsk - no problem found

Check Harddisk with hd sentinel - no problem found

check ram with memtest86 - pass 12 test for 15 hours - no problem found

msconfig - only services related to Intel, Nvidia, Antivirus, bluetooth, and wifi are activated

malwarebytes - no malicious software found


I even brought my notebook to my manufacture 2 weeks ago, they only replace the WIFI cards, and said nothing wrong with another hardware. They also update my recovery files and flash recover from there. It didn't solve anything yet.



For the last 2 months, I had to reinstall my Windows for 5 times already, the last time I reinstall windows is Last week. And it becoming slow again after less than a week

It seems that my laptop can only run smoothly if only Windows 10 installed. But, nobody brought laptop just to see "windows 10"


Is there anything left to do?

Or is it real that some of articles in the internet I read, what Win 10 Spec requirement 2gb of ram etc are just so the laptop can run with windows 10, no any other program at all. So that anybody brought notebook with Windows 10 Installed, either "forced" To upgrade their RAM to 8GB and Harddisk to SSD, otherwise, dump the Win 10, and buy again windows, Win 8/7 ?

Hi Aman,

There are some factors that may cause the computer to slowdown, corrupt Windows system files, is one of the factor that can slow down the computer and cause other problems.

To isolate the issue, we would like to ask some information:

• Did you get any error messages?

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

New install Windows 10 (issue solved)

It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

Heres a couple examples:

It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
