Five ways to speed up your windows 10 booting time.


Welcome my dear readers, today am going to be writing on how to fix a slow booting windows 10 system. During the cause of long term of usage PCs get choked up with too many apps. There are numerous ways to speed up your Windows 10 system, but today we are focusing on the slow booting aspect of it, and we have 5 ways to fix a slow booting Windows 10 system.

  1- Fresh Updates 

Most at times a dodgy driver or a bug in an update can cause a Windows10 systems to slow down, so its worth making sure Windows, drivers and programs are up to date. To check for any available Windows updates press the Windows key+I and then select Update & Security.

In here you will see an option to either check for updates or install ones that are available. Do this, reboot your machine, and see if there are any improvements. For drivers, it can be worth installing a driver updater program which will help you identify all drivers that needs to be updated and download them for you, most of this software are in paid version while some are free with limited operation.

Otherwise you'll have to check manually for all your hardware, from a printer, to your graphics card and other hardware attached to your PC. To get a driver updater just search for Windows10 driver updater and choose any one you deem fit.

  2- Stop programs loading at startup

 When you install new programs, many will want to launch automatically when you start up your PC. This can be a good thing, especially for the likes of Google Drive, anti-virus packages, OneDrive, graphics packages etc. The problem is that as more apps join this list, the time it takes your system to boot becomes more long and annoying, multiply this by a year or two and your PC can take ages to be usable when you turn it on.

Fixing this issue can be done in-house and it relatively easy, because Windows 10 provides controls over which apps are allowed to run at launch. To access these settings hold down CTRL+ALT+DEL and then select Task Manager from the menu that appears.

 >>>>> If this is the first time you using this program you will need to click the ' More details' option at the bottom of the window. Now you should see a list of all the programs running on your system. 

>>>>>>> Select the Start-up tab and youll now be able to disable any apps that you think could do without when you first turn on your PC.

  NOTE: You're not removing the programs from your PC. You can still use them, but they won't automatically start up. And it's probably only worth disabling those that have a High or Medium impact. Also if you disable something and a crucial feature or function stops working, simply re-enable the app in the Task Manager. TIP: You can usually disable 'updater' or 'helper' programs.

  3- Installing a SSDM

 You can also take into consideration your hardware components, cause over time most hardware also need a quick upgrade to make the system function properly as it grows. So swapping your old hard drive for a new superfast SSD is an easy and quick upgrade that often increases the speed of your older system making it look like new.

  4 - Reset Windows

Well it is worth reinstalling Windows every 18-24 months, as this should keep your system in a lively state, and before this you must ensure that you have backed up your data to a safe location either on an external hardware or any storage location of your choice. So with all your data safely kept away you can now begin.

Press Windows key+I, select Update & Security, then choose Recovery from the list in the left hand column.

 >>>>>> At the top of the page you will see the option to Reset this PC.

 >>>>>Click Get started and you will then see a blue box appear with two choices Keep my files and Remove everything.

 >>>>>>> Choose the former if you want your data left in place, or the latter for a completely fresh version of Windows 10. Your PC will now reinstall Windows and leave you with a much faster boot time when it is finished.

  5 - Check for malware and viruses

 Another way is to run a full scan on your system to see if any nasty agents are lurking in your system code. Malware is a regular cause of performance drops in Windows, so you should regularly give your PC a health check. Either use the antivirus software that's installed on your PC already, or if you're using Windows Defender then press Windows key+I, select Update & Security, then click on the Windows Defender section on the left column.

 In the Windows that appears you will see the top option is

>>>>> Open Windows Defender.

 >>>>>Click this then choose Full in the Scan options section and click Scan now.

 The process takes a good while, so its best to begin a scan before you go to bed and let it run overnight. If you use another security package like an external anti-virus that is not windows Defender then youll need to launch it and look for similar options, just make sure you perform a full scan or deep scan.
