New Windows 10 update making everything slow

sfc scan now, dude!    isn't that the answer for everything on here?  or the other popular one is that it's your fault man.   you are doing everything wrong.    

do what the rest of us have already done.   WIPE YOUR DRIVE AND DUMP WINDOWS 10 AND INSTALL LINUX MINT.

5 months and counting for me and i haven't had one single issue since!   the best part is coming back on this "expert" site and seeing the mounting complaints about what is the worst os of all time.  

just get rid of it dude.    linux mint is a thousand times less hassle.    do it!   your life will be so much happier!

Pardon my language, but what a ROYAL PAIN IN THE *** Microsoft screws up our machines and then we have to fix it. Microsoft should test all these updates before releasing them or I should say forcing them down our throats. My machine loaded super fast and last night it updated and today it just hangs the in the load up screen until it gets good and ready to advance. This is ****, I'm so pissed, the last dang update did the same thing to  me and I haven't yet recovered from that one, meaning I have not full reinstalled all software into my machine only to be hit with another ******* update. Why doesn't Microsoft run these updates for a month or two, before shoving them down our throat?

The last time this ****** happened I ended up having to wipe my machine, and start all over with a clean slate. It looks like I'm going to have to wipe it again, I just ran System Recovery, which it did remove the bulk of the update, but what ever it changed maybe at the SSD level or creating containers, it did not correct it. In other words even after running recovery, it's still taking an awful long time to startup/load.

So even after running Recovery Mode, it does not fix it!!

I can’t do most if not all of these tips if I can’t get out the stupidly long startup menu. (I’m sill waiting for about 40 minutes).

ALSO, even if I finally get out of startup. I’m still waiting on Desktop to finish loading (I disabled all startup apps btw).

Hi Koopuh. I'm Greg, an installation specialist, 10 year Windows MVP, and Volunteer Moderator here to help you.

1. If this was caused by Windows Update(s) then you can check which were installed at Settings>Update & Security>Windows Update under Update History, then uninstall them from the link there, and immediately check for these again and hide with the Hide Updates tool explained here: https://www.howtogeek.com/223864/how-to-uninsta...

You can also use System Restore from within Windows to get back before the problem began, then check for Updates with the Hide Update tool and hide them: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-use-system-r...

2. Update your drivers and BIOS/UEFI firmware from PC or motherboard maker's Support Downloads web page, using the full model number, Serial Number or Dell Service Tag on sticker. Compare the latest drivers available for download with the ones presently installed in Device Manager reached by right clicking the Start Menu. Make sure you have the latest BIOS or UEFI firmware, Chipset, Display (Video), Sound, USB3, Bluetooth, Network and all other drivers, or else download and install the latest now.

Updating drivers from the Device Manager or Windows Update is rarely enough. The most basic thing we need to learn to maintain a PC is keep the latest manufacturer's drivers installed from their Support Downloads web page.

3. Go over this checklist to make sure the install is set up correctly, optimized for best performance, and any needed repairs get done: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki...

Start with Step 4 to turn off Startup freeloaders which can conflict and cause issues, then Step 7 to check for infection the most thorough way, then step 10 to check for damaged System Files, and also Step 16 to test a new Local Admin account. Then continue with the other steps to go over your install most thoroughly.

4. If nothing else works then do a Repair Install, by installing Media Creation Tool, open tool and choose to Upgrade Now. This reinstalls Windows while keeping files, programs and most settings in place, and is also the most stable method to advance to the latest version. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/m...

I hope this helps. Feel free to ask back any questions and keep me posted. I will keep working with you until it's resolved.
