Windows 10 Boot hanging on welcome screen
I upgraded from windows 7 to windows 10 last night and the boot time has gotten significantly slower. I have an Samsung 840 Pro SSD and with windows 7 the welcome screen would only flash up for a second then I would be logged in. With Windows 10 it hangs for around 8-10 seconds. I've removed every startup program except for the nvidia display driver (which I had startup in win 7 too) and made sure no extra services were starting up along with the task scheduler. I then went through the event viewer to see if anything was coming up and I'm only getting this error.
Event ID: 7001
Source: Service Control Manager
The Net.Tcp Listener Adapter service depends on the Net.Tcp Port Sharing Service service which failed to start because of the following error:
The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.
* I was able to fix the Event ID: 7001 by following these directions
I started up "services.msc" and in that console "Net.Tcp Port Sharing Service" was disabled. I changed this startup type to "Automatic" and it solved the problem after a reboot.
After I fixed the Event ID7001 and shut off the computer and then started it up again it booted even faster than with Windows 7 at around 7 seconds. For anyone who's having slow boot times check the Windows Event Viewer / Task Scheduler for potential issues. There still is a large discrepancy between the startup time from when my computer is off 7 seconds to rebooting around 20 seconds.
