Windows 10 takes a few minutes to load
Hello everyone,
Sometime last year (I think after a Windows 10 update), my boot time for my PC became very slow. My OS is running on a SSD and in the past only took about 15-20 seconds to start up but now it takes forever. When I get to the black windows screen the spinning wheel is very slow for about 50 seconds, then it finally speeds up and everything loads quickly.
I've tried unplugging everything but it doesn't seem to help.
Version 20H2 (OS Build 19042.804)
I did a boot trace and from the screenshot below it appears the process "Idle (0)" is just... idling and taking the majority of the boot time. If I need to upload the complete boot trace let me know.
