It would stay on that screen for at least 20 minutes before my keyboard and mouse lit up again and then it was just the spinning dots for a few more minutes. I followed a video on fixing an infinite boot through automatic repair and made a backup which fixed my problem for a week, but now it’s back.

I had done an error checking of my drive and it came back with no errors. I’ve had to shutdown my PC twice today after windows froze up and I couldn’t do anything. The first shutdown my PC came back and was running fine even though it took 20 minutes to boot, but then it froze up again after I left it for a few minutes.

Now it’s back up and again running smooth. The Paladin Illustrious Ambassador. Oct 5, 9, 42 41, 2, The Paladin :. SkyBill40 Distinguished. Oct 11, 1, 27 20, Potentially left field question here, but Do you have all of the most recent updates? If your system is playing catch up to install those patches, it will take a while. This has happened with my wife’s laptop a couple of times but now that I’ve got it on a regular cycle to verify if updates are available and installed since she doesn’t use it as much as I use the desktop , it’s just fine now.

All that said, it could end up being a HDD issue for you as previously mentioned. SkyBill40 :. Once you got it started, lets do 2 things Check hard drive for bad sectors and try to repair. Sep 20, 1 0 10 0. I had the same problem: for weeks it took 30 minutes to boot. In my case it was easily solved: the system was trying to do automatic update to my backup on Google drive, but the drive was full.

Boot time was back to normal. I suppose this is a disk issue as proposed earlier, but not a local one. You must log in or register to reply here.

Question windows expolorer taking a long time to load and display things. Post thread. Thanks for that. They work just great and he highly recommends them. However, I have a Toshiba laptop. His son, my nephew, also put a SSD in his Toshiba laptop with the same result.

We are therefore not all that keen to drop a SSD in my Toshiba laptop. We have Windows 10 in these three, but he runs 8. Do you know how to find out how to manipulate the Windows startup stuff? I knew how to find this for years but with 10 I am still struggling to find where they’ve put things. Posted 07 February – PM.

How did you install W10? Otherwise this tends to look similar to many other problems that we’ve seen with W10 being installed on well-used systems. There’s a couple of things to try: 1 Run the following command in a Powershell window that’s run as an Administrator in order to re-register the Windows Store apps:. Posted 08 February – PM. The answer to your question is to start Task Manager and click the Startup tab.

Good luck. Thank you for all that. I will start the tasks tomorrow morning and work my way through. It makes sense that slapping W10 on top of something causes file management systems to have a coronary. Seeing a surgeon tomorrow for my 3-bypass, so work on the laptop will be held up a little – I will only take my phone and tablet into the hospital with me. Posted 09 February – AM. First off, it is almost certainly a program running at startup that is causing your problem, and using the task manager to stop these running processes is not the best way to go.

Or “Startup. Of the two, Autoruns is a slightly more complex program and should always be run as Administrator in use! Incidentally, I have 2 laptops that were upgraded with W10 on top of W8. I use a dual monitor 6 core mhz 64 bit 32 gig ram HD graphics 3 hard drive 1×1 terr, 2×2 terr desktop PC, 2 4 core HP laptops with 16 gig ram all running Window I am a self confessed computer nut I’m afraid there is no hope for me!

OK, I’ve tried both of those. The second one didn’t show anything, just my Canon camera software. The first one shows dozens and dozens of items. The problem now is how do I determine which of these does what? The vast majority of them have code titles, not intuitive descriptions. Do I have to google each item to discover what it does? Some of them are highlighte in different colours but I can’t see what these colours signify.

Is the program alerting me to the fact that I should only concentrate on these? Posted 19 February – AM. It has been for over half an hour, making my system almost unusable. I searched the file and found hundreds of users with the same complaint, and an equal number of suggested fixes, none of which seem to have worked. Incidentally, it is an issue whether Windows 10 was clean installed or not, makes no difference. I don’t want to right click, run as administrator, examine my motherboard or reset any graphics anything.

Have you considered adding more RAM? It’s not very expensive, and it sure helps performance. Could be a good way to go. Posted 10 August – AM. This issue is still going on. Can anyone tell me how I can stop Windows Search Indexer? I have tried from the Command Admin box but typing in a stop command has no effect whatsoever. See this page. I would be very careful if you decide to edit the registry. Export the key you are editing and read all comments on the page.

I have something like GB of music on this machine so I think I’ll move it to one of my backup externals and see what happens if it’s not there. I have the new Anniversary Edition of Windows 10 and from completely off to on and running takes exactly 3 seconds.

A restart takes 8 seconds. Linux User and Windows 10 Lover. Community Forum Software by IP. Sign In Create Account. Javascript Disabled Detected You currently have javascript disabled.

After that, restart the computer and check. Cancel Submit. Auto-hide for the taskbar requires an additional action to view Start, access Cortana, or other items in the taskbar, which will make Windows 10 slow to login or boot up. Was this reply helpful?
