It may be that I've done enough to shorten the time it takes to drop...
I use one for business and the other for personal.
But, so what? I've been using 2 browsers for years on this machine and my desktop without a problem.

I could have posted 15 different cases with disk at 100% and most would not have been a result of Firefox.
Mostly, it's SYSTEM and Avast.
But, my question remains: what level of MB activity across...
More than 20 minutes after wakeup from sleep, I'm still seeing 100% disk utilization which is slowing me to a crawl.
Here's a screen grab of Task Manager, showing what is often the case: SYSTEM and...
I can but I've been watching it closely during boot up and it changes every second.
Mostly
Avast Installer

I'm sure that the disk speed on the 2 PCs is different, but i have trouble believing that one would take 10 minutes to boot and the other less than 1. The discrepancy seems too large to me.

complicated.
I'm going to prevent Avast from launching at startup and see if that makes a difference.
5-10 minutes
neither skype or onedrive are opening on startup
My laptop, when it boots up, is very slow.
Looking at Task Manager, DISK is at 100% for a very long time.
Is this normal?
No single process is dominating usage and the top task changes over...
Had the same problem with a brand new laptop (HP Envy) upgraded from W8.1 (not a pain in the ass)
Found a bunch of potential solutions, but none were feasible until you were logged in and I was hung...
Thanks, WhyMe...I've once again cleared everything on the laptop and turned everything on, on the printer, and IT WORKED

Feedback loop.
Yes, I'll post here when I have questions, but I'm hoping to find a dedicated Outlook forum.
And, was hoping someone else from this forum would know of one.
Nope. But, now the printer is showing as offline and I can't get it online.
So, I removed all the HP printer objects that showed up under the list of printers.
Then, I scanned for NEW PRINTER and...
Yes, 2013..
New laptop. Upgraded to Windows 10.
Can't print to an HP 7520 which is on wifi.

BUT, when I call up the PROPERTIES for the printer, I CAN PRINT...
I know I can ask Outlook questions here, but does anyone know of a good forum just for Outlook or Office?

Impressed already by this Forum!!
Thanks!
I just moved from W7 to W10 and haven't been able to figure out how to create a desktop app icon for file explorer.
