W10 really sluggish
I don't know what is left to try.
- raised pagefile to recommended values
- scanned for malware/viruses
- cpu/gpu usage normal
- did windows built-in performance and memory diagnostics - no problems
- did CCleanup
- Made sure startup doesn't run anything out of the ordinary
Windows is very sluggish. Everything takes forever to start. It feels like instead of an i7, 16gb ram, I have a DOS-era pc.
I had that same issue before and it seemed to go away for a while when I reinstalled it all from scratch. One week later its back in full-force.
I did have an issue one time when I ran Dell Diagnostics, the PC Doctor complained about low memory and having to close some apps to initialize the scan but it made no sense to me because while that prompt was hanging, the taskbar showed memory utilization was normal and even windows performance said there are no problems so I suspect the Dell application itself simply malfunctioned or something because I have no other explanation to this.
Anyone?
