Slow Start-Up

Post by Percy Vere »

Hello, the first time I started my laptop today, it was it's usual slow self. It had not received any updates, it shuts down when I close the lid. When it was started the second time, I got this:-

Check your startup programs using Task Manager or Autoruns or WhatInStartup.

Also, please supply specifics about your hardware configuration.

That is not much in startup. What are your hardware specs?

Two things to try:

1. Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files

2. How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk) to repair a hard drive – Which Computing Helpdesk

Finally, and from personal experience, I find that if I have Windows updates pending, that can have a detrimental effect on performance times.

Do you have any devices mapped in File Explorer that are not available when you boot?
