Windows 10 takes too long to boot.
I know this is a holiday weekend, but I'm set to start a new job working from home. Just as I'm about to go live I'm suddenly noticing that Windows 10 is taking 5 minutes or from turning it on to when I can actually use it. I've already done the basics by looking for malware, Trojans, spyware, ect. System is already set to check for disk errors nightly, with a complete defrag and optimize done once a week. The only software I've installed recently has been Chrome as that's required by the company I work for.
Since I'll be using this computer for work now, I've migrated most of my personal stuff off the system. The only one left that loads at boot is Steam. Personal, yet business related I have the freelance website Upwork load on boot as well. I do run System Mechanic Pro running both at boot and in background. That seems to have helped keep my registry from getting to out of hand, because it defrags and compacts it every hard boot. (I do this at least once every other day, during the day so I can keep an eye on things.)
Any help I can get would be greatly appreciated!
Merry Christmas!
