Windows 10 slow boot

corebela · 19 Mar 2019

Hello my Windows 10 PC has been booting oddly slow for a long time now. Every time I try to figure out why I cannot. I started to think there is no way to find out and I could only solve it by luck. This time I came across some threads here that look promising using WIndows performance analyzer and was hoping someone here could help me by looking at the results of a boot trace. I do not know how to make that file available so need to be told that as well. Thank you so much for your help anyone who does indeed help me out.

Hi corebela.

Here is the tutorial on uploading screen shots and files.

How to Upload and Post Screenshots and Files at Ten Forums

This way you can get the file up and be ready.

In several instances of slow boot that I've followed a disk is the cause. Have you booted with only your boot disk attached, all other disk disconnected, and does it display same behaviour?

If it still boots slowly with only boot disk have you run chkdsk on the drive?

What are you using as a boot disk.

Hi,
Compress the ".ETL" file and the corresponding ".NGENPDB" folder and upload them on google drive or on https://www.transfernow.net
