[QUOTE="ssaurabh2008, post: 887834, member: 87589"] Due to the corona lockdown, I started using my old desktop PC again, just to keep it updated and running. After using it for couple of days, I realized that it is exceptionally faster than my new laptop. My old desktop has AMD Phenom ii X4 840, 4GB RAM, Windows 7, Kaspersky Security Cloud And my new laptop has Intel i5 8250U, 8GB RAM, Windows 10 1909, Kaspersky Security Cloud It's not that I don't know how to 'maintain' a system. I have performed all the basic troubleshooting steps that I could, like defragmanting the disk, clearing temp files, running chkdsk, sfc, uninstalling the softwares that I don't use, removing everything from the startup, disabling (or turning manual) unnecessary services, updating the drivers etc... The only thing that is remaining to do now, is to format and do a fresh Windows 10 install again. But I don't want to lose all my installed softwares and their settings. So formatting doesn't seem a practical solution to me. Can you think of any particular reason, why my new laptop is sooooooo slow? Do you guys have any other solution apart from the ones that I mentioned above? Any help or pointers would be much appriciated. Thank you. [/QUOTE]
