Hi Everybody, as I only use my Win10 pc to keep a record of my personal details, I will leave it as it is. I also have a Chromebook which is lightning fast but only use it to read forums and emails.

I did notice there was a large amount of 'System Files' that could be deleted but not sure if I might need some of them in the future.
This my restart time using that script on a Laptop rather similar to yours. Standard 1 TB 5400 rpm laptop HDD also has an optical drive and Optimus dual graphics.
Never had a clean install for 6 years, only Windows version updates to Windows 10 1909.
I'm careful to go thru Windows 10 settings, and also when installing applications. Looking for potential startup items and selecting accordingly. No use of 'system sabotage' methods.
Not so sure about the usefulness of such scripts - compare post #20 a desktops with a load more hardware and higher speed HDDs, even an Nvme M.2 SSD boot drive. Much more extensive UEFI/BIOSes than you get on a Laptop.

Used Avast Clear to remove it all and installed Kaspersky Cloud Free Anti Virus. Now I get:-
I use Windows Defender and Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware.
