Windows 10: Windows 10 takes 20 minutes to load (stuck on spinning circle)

Hi All

My windows 10 PC takes 20 minutes to load (stuck on spinning circle). I went in to Eventviewer, Application and service logs -> windows-> microsoft->Diagnostic performance -> operational and saw the only error criticla is Microsoft Software Protection Platform Service which is causing a 1223275ms second boot time.

Now, windows is activated, legit copy.
I did SFC scan now, checkdisk, DISM, Fixmbr, couldnt do fixboot as access is denied. Any ideas ?
I tried to disable the sppsvc.exe but still same boot time. Any ideas?


Speccy is attached with windows version

:)

Hi, did you know you've included a Windows license key in your uploaded information?

Omitted: required and prompted info- v. important:

- clarification- do you mean it takes 20 minutes for a cold boot to lock screen display? If not, please expand.

History please:

When did your Win 10 Pro last boot more quickly?
With which build of Win 10 was that?
What happened after that that led to the slow boot?

Once you have booted is performance normal?

Just as a basic check please download and run
Hard Disk Sentinel (trial) - SSDs too - gives the best instant commentary on each disk I know.

Slow booting has been reported by some in the context of 2004 and 20H2, and with after the installation of the new Edge (Chromium) browser.

Otherwise, boot delays can be analysed (technical!) using the WPA Windows Performance Analyser free from MS.
Tutorial available.

Search the forum for
Windows Performance Analyser
and you will find example threads with screenshots.

Causes are more likely to be driver incompatibilty or device enumeration.

Is your BIOS current?

Looks like the computer is joined to a Domain, so is it a work computer?

Also, Speccy is showing you are not connected to the Internet, so the Microsoft Software Protection Platform Service cannot validate your license information on boot.
