Windows 10: Windows 10 Version 21H1 Slows Down Computer

A couple of months ago I installed version 21H1 on my laptop. This new version causes laptop to run dreadfully slow making it almost unusable. I reverted back to version 1909 which does not cause me any problem. Does anyone know of any issues with 21H1 that were identified like this that may have been fixed. I'm perfectly willing to upgrade but now if it causes my pc to run that slow.

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
