    Thanks. I just checked this and ticked the hibernate box which was not ticked. This however has made no difference to the restart time.

    It won't on Restart, because windows has to shut all the way down. Also if you use win+x to shut down it will not work, you have to shut down by either using start screen or through the Charms bar then boot. Go to this tutorial: Fast Startup - Turn On or Off in Windows 10

    I also noticed the slower boot times.
    Old Windows 7: ~40 seconds
    New Windows 10: ~70 seconds
    (And Windows 8 was the same as Windows 7.)

    Same hardware, same HDD. I tried many times and it's always this slow.
    At first I thought it was because of the upgrade, but then I did a clean install and it was the same.
    I also have W10 in a VM and it's slow to boot there as well.

    Windows 8.1 boot faster than Windows 10 on my pc with SSD, on Windows 8.1 I never see login screen because it's fast( I set it straight to desktop) it just flashed and straight to desktop. Windows 10, I can see the circle on login screen, it takes 5-10 sec to go to desktop and a lot of disk activity after that. Restart and Shutdown takes longer time too on Windows 10. This is on clean install.

    I'm using Kaspersky Security on both OS too.

    BTW I disabled fast startup and hibernation on both Windows.

    I found turning off fast startup in power options settings help my boot up speed
    I would get to the screen with my picture and freeze

    @Littlejohn56 are you using a SSD? I found it faster with it off too.
