Turn off applications that start with Windows
Many software that automatically run when the machine is turned on will increase the boot time.
How to do it: Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager → Select the Startup apps tab → Turn off unnecessary applications by selecting Disable.
Clean hard drive capacity
Near full hard drives can reduce Windows boot performance.
How to do it: Open Settings → System → Storage → Delete unnecessary files or use Disk Cleanup to free up space.
Check hard drive usage
A hard drive that operates at 100% for a long time can cause the machine to start slowly.
How to do it: Open Task Manager → Select the Processes tab → Check Disk column → Close applications that use multiple resources if not necessary.
Scan for viruses and malware
Viruses or malware can slow down the operating system from the start.
How to do it: Open Windows Security → Select Virus & threat protection → Perform a full system scan.
Update Windows and drivers
Updates can fix system errors and improve boot performance.
How to do it: Open Settings → Windows Update → Select Check for updates → Install new updates if available.
Upgrade from HDD to SSD
If the computer still uses a HDD, upgrading to a SSD can significantly improve the boot speed.
How to do it: Back up data → Replace HDD with SSD → Reinstall Windows or copy the operating system to SSD.
When is it necessary to take the machine for inspection?
If you have tried the above methods but the computer still starts slowly, the reason may be due to:
1: Hard drive is broken or has many bad sectors.
2: RAM is not enough to meet usage needs.
3: Windows operating system error.
4: Mainboard or hardware components operate unstablely.
Users should bring the device to a warranty center or reputable repair facility for inspection.
