New Windows 10 update making everything slow

So apparently Windows decided to automatically update itself while I was away from the PC. When I’m trying to log in, it takes ridiculously long (around 30-40 minutes). So I tried restarting, but startup is SUPER slow to the point that I’m stuck waiting for a black screen of death. Why is my PC slow after this recent update?

    I’m not computer savy and my computer is only 2 years old!  I use it in my insurance business. Did the upgrade today and it took half my day. Then when it finally finished it took forever to boot up. Takes ten minutes to load my Google Gmail. I typically have two emails, my rater, my CRM and carriers open during the day. I CANNOT operate this way. Is there a simple way a non-coder can fix her laptop???  Costing my business and angry customers because I cannot access their policies. This forum is way over my head. Thanks MS for screwing up my business
