    Windows 7 & Windows 10 Dual Boot


    Okay I am not sure where this post should be so here goes.
    I am running a Windows 7 & Windows 10 Dual Boot on 2 seperate 250 GB Hard Drives I am not using boot manager like easybcd or windows boot manager to link them under a common bootloader I am going into the bios very rebbot and selecting which O.S I am wanting to use there are less problems for me doing it that way.
    I know I am still using the Win-10-1709 version and I DON'T want to upgrade to the currnet version I am fine with what it is doing except for one thing.

    When I boot into windows 10 and work for a while I am having to take ownership and resetting file and folder permissions in both operating systems every time I reboot as well as just working in Windows 10 normally and it is getting really annoying as I am needing to have access to the Windows 7 hard drive frequently so disconnecting it is not an option not to mention that I have an additional 4 X 2 TB drives connected for extra data storage only.

    I am having to take ownership and reset file and folder permissions on ALL of my hard drives on a regular basis and it is getting really annoying and I am wanting to know if there is any way to stop windows 10 from doing this repetitively and just leave things alone,windows 7 doesnt' do that and is not any issue of concern in this matter.
    It is hard to get any work done when I am having to take ownership all the time!! *Smile

    Windows 7 & Windows 10 Dual Boot

    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.
