    Windows slows down comparing when it was fresh installation


    Hi I am using windows 10 64 bit I dont know if I should believe myth that says do a fresh windows installation every 4 or 5 years as it gets clogged and I feel windows slows down comparing when it was fresh installation Although I use utility Revo Uninstaller (there are others) that is supposed not to leave a leftover in windows registry when you uninstall a program I do not let unnecessary program to run in the background Code: https://imgur.com/a/mMfp5zV Only I have ESET and MalwareBytes running when windows start In past I used many utilities that check and tweak windows OS but it didnt restore windows to its origin state when it was freshly installed Is this true myth Is there a trust program that check windows 10 health and advise accordingly ? Am I missing some important steps? What are most trusted programs worth to have / buy it ? Thx

    :)

    Windows slows down comparing when it was fresh installation

    AMD phenom 995BE 3.6GHZ running extremely slow

    A lot of things can cause a slow startup, most common would be drivers. It will take a *long* time for us to go through all the options, so i'll just list the steps i do for a fresh windows install that is problem free, you can let us know if you missed any of it.


    1. Format the drive - clean windows install from DVD
    2. install all drivers you can from windows update first, except video card. Make sure to install and update .Net, as modern video card drivers require that.
    3. install any missing drivers (check device manager), including video card manually, with downloads from their respective websites. never install from the motherboard DVD/website unless you have to.
