Windows 10: Windows is horribly slow when right clicking/loading windows/log-in

Hi there, I've been a macbook user for a few years and I just got a windows PC that feels horribly slow. I know it's not right because I had windows 10 on a crappy laptop and felt just right. Any ideas on how to solve it? This is a list of my problems:

- Right click takes about 5-10 seconds

- When at the login screen right after power on it takes another 20-30 seconds to respond to my keys and introduce the password

- When opening folders it takes about 5-10 seconds

- Sometimes the screen just freezes and become unresponsive for a few seconds



I've tried Ccleaner for cleaning odd registry entries, tronscript, adwcleaner, AIO toolkit ( https://paul.is-a-geek.org/aio-srt/aio-srt-lite/) and I still have the same problems..

These are my PC's specs:

i5 3470 3.20 GHz

16Gb RAM

GTX 1050 4Gb

Windows 10 Pro with an original license key



Any help will be much appreciated, I wouldn't like to reinstall everything again since it took me 3 days to get all stuff I need

Feature suggestion: Add right-click menu

Suggestion: Please add a Windows 7 Jump-List and/or right-click menu to the GPU-Z icon in the Windows taskbar. Possible menus in it would be "Exit" and "About GPU-Z...".
Maybe also "Switch to tab 1/Switch to tab 2/Switch to videocard 1/Switch to videocard 2" too.
Examples of programs that have such menus are ICQ, Skype, AIM.

NOTE: It seems for a right-click menu, Windows 7 is not needed - it works on WinXP and Vista too.
But even a Windows 7 Jump-list may be good enough.
What do you think?

 

Help! Windows Loads Too Slow.

well apart from all the usual stuff here like ccleaner and msconfig, defrag...

guess what mine issue was a while back?

inside the eventlog of windows 7 you can find some red marked allerts like "dll" that didn't load properly on startup.

you have to look inside your "event log" from windows:
The Windows System Event Log can be found through right clicking the My Computer icon and left clicking Manage. Next, click Event Viewer in the tree on the left and click System.


with that info you can atleast take away some bricks from the startup process *Big Grin

EDIT:

why would this board not support his cpu? according to gigabyte it takes from rev 3.1 up to 5.0 some bulldozer and rare a vishera cpu?

 

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
