New Windows 10 update making everything slow

Hi John,

I have Just re-imaged my SSD and am happy to say that my Laptop is performing at lightning speed.

Takes about 10-15 secs to boot.

If it starts to slow down I will just re-image my SSD.

Again I save all my data onto a separate removable disk for safe keeping, thus I have no issues re-imaging the SSD.

All the Best

Cheers NT

Hi koophu

Please read this https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-performance/some-apps-very-slow-to-load/ca93263d-1ff4-4461-9925-ebc8871de69d?messageId=902fdd30-a67e-46f1-8dd4-2a922ac283e0

Further to the above,

WIN 10 Pro 64 Bit

Office 2016

Internet wired running at 54 Mbps. Cable or broadband call it what you will.

System was slow at startup and when opening/closing apps like Excel or word Access or PP (Lets not go there)

AV - Trend Micro Maximum.

For all intentional purposes it appears that since I had the M2 SSD installed my system now literally flys.

Lets see in say 3-6 months time what effect it has.

I do have a "Virgin" copy of the install when I received my PC back together with Office AV and a couple of other programs that I tend to use.

To Date nothing has changed and I yet have to doctor my Lenovo, I will get round to that shortly and hopefully I will see similar results.

Hi John D The specs above are for my Lenovo ideapad 300.

My PC has similar specs mainly 8th Gen i7, 16Gb DDR4 2600 RAM (2x8)

I run all Samsung SSD from 120Gb up to 2Tb and recently upgraded to a 500Gb M2 SSD

I had a mishap with power at home and took my PC......keep reading below so I do not repeat myself as I have replied to Richard

Hi Richard

Took my system to get checked out. Had a power spike knocked out all power to my home.

Thought PC had gone since it would not boot.

Power supply got hit - Was replaced all good.

Techie who worked on my PC suggested that Win 7 was out of Date to which I agreed and related my story.

He replaced my Power Supply and suggested that I use the full capability of my MB (Gigabyte Z370- HD3) by installing an SSD directly onto the M2 socket on my MB, an Samsung 860 EVO M.2 500GB, V-NAND, (2280), SATA III 6GB/s, R/W(Max). (cost me $140 AUD and $140 to install The Best $280 I ever spent). and to run the lastest WIN 10.

Since I have WIN 7 and a Copy of WIN 10 backed onto separate bootable hard drives, I save all my data onto a separate SSD removable disk, therefore I was able to risk it.

After I collected my PC and turned it on I cannot believe the speed, it literally boots up in 10 seconds flat (really) and all updates are done behind the scene and if they do become intrusive, a message pops up telling me that I can use my PC while the updates are installing.

I cannot believe the transformation to my PC , I am happy again but that does not excuse Microsoft for wanting to know how many hairs I have up my nose. I just block all the intrusive Bull***t out.

May I suggest that you give this a go if your MB supports the M2 or has an M2 Socket, or perhaps change to a MOBO that has the M2 Socket.
