Windows 10 has dramatically slowed my pc to a crawl

catloverplayer

I upgraded from 8.1 and since I have when I'm typing it will just stop and freeze and I'm getting twitter is not responding. This never happened before I upgraded. I'm using windows 10 new browser but when your typing is freezing that's more related to your processing speed dropping to near zero. I have 3 or 4 processors on this desktop.

Which desktop are you using - your GTX 660 or your GT 120?

Have you tried on a different browser? If it is still slow, try doing this:


Right click on start menu and open up control panel
Search for performance in the top right
Click on adjust appearance and performance
open advanced tab and click change
Uncheck automatic
Click the drive system is installed on select custom size
set initial and maximum size to the value recommended by windows
click set and then restart

Did you do the thing I posted?

Check to see if you have all the important updates for your desktop CLP. Because it sounds to me like you don't.

One other thing CLP, when did this start? Was it over the weekend? If it did start last weekend, it's probably the Internet. Because the Internet has been a bit screwy since last Friday.

I would say that the slow down on your pc is do to the internet CLP if you are seeing this slowdown online. I say this because it's now after 2 AM, and I have noticed a large increase in net speed now.

How much RAM does your computer have? Windows 10 can be a bit of a memory hog.

As I forgot about this thread...

People are having a couple issues with the anniversary update. If you have installed the anniversary update, the only solution that works is rolling back to the previous Windows version.
