Windows 10: Windows 10 superfetch?

And with 4GB of ram, good luck with that.

 

Hello.

I have a laptop with 4 Gigs of RAM, i started to use Windows 10 10240 Build (Switched From anniversary update). then i noticed all my games like Fortnite/GTA V stopped stuttering, whenever i use any other version of windows 10 other than 10240, my games starts to lag crazyly. i noticed in 10240 Build, whenever i play high end games, The 'system' process uses 500MB-ish while the game is at 800-ish. In other versions of Windows 10 though, The 'system' Process is always at 0.1 MB while the game takes entire RAM. so i noticed its the superfetch service. whenever i disable it, even the 10240 Build runs the system process at 0.1mb and the games starts to lag crazy. then i enabled superfetch in other versions of windows 10 other than 10240, but they all still lag. so what is it thats special about superfetch in this 10240 version that no other windows 10 version got?

:)

 

Windows 10 Unexpected shutdown on start up

OK, so i figured it out myself

Found the logfile in "C:\Windows\Minidump".

You need the Windows Development Kit to open it and a bit of googling to understand it.

Found out that a Daemon driver caused an error. Removed Daemon but this didn't solve it. (ps: Daemon itself worked normally).

I let hibernate my computer again and found another error with sptd2.sys: SCSI Pass Through Direct layer

More google and ended up on the duplexsecure site. Downloaded the W10 version and voila: problem fixed.

For the Windows support team: It would be really helpfull if you could pass problems to a more skilled helpdesk who can do more than proposing the standard solutions in case those won't work.

Cheers

 

Windows 10 Unexpected shutdown on start up

OK, so I also found out that this occurs when sleepmode (for me after 3 hours) changes into hibernate mode.

Seems like the going into hibernate and/or starting up from HIbernate results in a shutdown. In safeboot it works perfectly.

Anyone any idea how I can figure out where it goes wrong. Is there a way to log this (I couldn't find it in bootlog)

 

You really should not be using 10240 as it has not been supported for a long time (neither is AU version).

 

I don't know if this issue is what you have, but from build 1703 and onwards the standby memory and superfetch has been broken for some users. Games stutter because Windows fail to release and swap cached memory data properly. It should be known by now by Microsoft (I contacted them a few months ago), but don't hold your breath for a fix anytime soon. Maybe build 1803 will fix it, but it's not officially out yet.

 

I usually have superfetch on mine off by default.

 

This is not a great idea, and should only be done as a last resort.

 

You might think it is. But I have it turned off since then and haven't got any problems at all.

If anything, turning it off solved my problem of Windows 10 torturing my hard drive to a halt.

 

Since you're on a hard drive, I'd have left it on.
