Laptop slow on startup

Hi there,

I have a new laptop with a high spec. However, for the first hour each day, it runs as slowly as an old 486 machine, then suddenly it catches up with itself and runs superbly all day.

I've checked everything:
Programs in the Start menu
ESET and OneDrive behaviour
Updates behaviour
BIOS settings
Everything I can think of and a hundred things I've learned about...

I've uninstalled some of the programs, but now I'm thinking I should uninstall everything and reinstall Windows 10.

Any ideas before I try the Windows 10 reinstall?

NOTES (1) I did try the upgrade to Windows 11 when I first got the machine, however, I didn't like it and went back to Windows 10; it was slow in the short time that I ran Windows 11 too, so I don't konw if that means something, like maybe it's a hardware issue? (2) It was a demo machine in the store where I bought it.

Cドライブの空き容量を増やすにはどうすればいいですか?

お世話になります。
私の使用している機種は、デル製 Insupiron 5490 AIO、デバイス名 DELL2021、プロセッサ  Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-10210U CPU @ 1.60GHz 2.11 GHz、実装RAM:8GB、Windous 10 Homeの21H です。
旧機種からの移行時、アプリを多くコピーしたため、Cドライブの空きが少なくなり、自分なりに不要なアプリをアンインストール、大きなデータをDドライブに移しました。しかしながら、容量221GBに対し、空きが14GBと少なくなりました。どのような作業業をすれば、空き容量を多くできるのでしょうか?

Time for new laptop?

My laptop is a Lenovo Ideapad 110 (about 8 years old?), and has been upgraded to Win10. About 2 years I thought the WiFI adapter was intermittently giving me problems, so I installed a D-Link USB adapter. It seemed to work ok, althought my laptop gradually got increasingly and painfully slow. So, I installed Auslogic Software several months ago and achieved a marginal, but not great improvement. The WifI speed tests I run are fairly low, around 30Mbps. I do have a new desktop PC in my house and it runs just fine, and it's WiFI speedtest shows a download speed of about 150Mbps.

Today my internet provider was down, so I decided to connect my laptap via Bluetooth to my cell phone hotspot. This is the first time I have done this. I couldn't believe the performance improvement that this resulted in. But he Wifi speed test was only in the 30Mbps range.

So, I have considered buying a new WiFI adapter for my laptop, but was concerned that if it didn't improve things, I just wasted the money and I might be better off just buying a new laptop.

But I like the current of performance that I get with the laptop connected to my cell phone hotspot.

I would be interested in hearing your comments and recommendations.
Thanks,
Brian

ANTI-MALWARE PROGRAM CONFLICT W/NORTON SECURITY

Hello - I have your Auslogics Anti-Maleware program and recently added Norton Security. Norton security runs scans in the backgound and for some reason goes after the anti-malware prgram, esentially erasing it. However it leaves my Auslogics BoosSpeed & Auslogics Driver Update prgrams alone, so they continue to run fine. Now every day I have to re-load the anti-malwar program.
I went into Norton checking the Virus & Firewall settings which are set to "allow" your anti-malway program , but it still continues to erase the entire anti-malware application. Do you have any ideas on how to fix this in Norton..?

BoostSpeed удаляет профили печати принтера HP

Здравствуйте

программа - отличная, спасибо.

Единственное, что хотел отметить - после сканирования уничтожаются настроенные профили печати на принтере НР (или последние использованные параметры). Перед печатью пять их делать приходится

С уважением
Дмитрий

Boost Speed doesn't recognize SSD

Hey guys,

Boost Speed doesn't recognize SSD and claims that it is HDD. Yes, I am sure it is SSD, all other software recognizes it as SSD (programs like Speccy, etc.).

How can this be fixed?

Thanks.

Windows 10 not updating from 1909 to 22H2

Follow up on not being able to update to Windows 10 22H2 from 1909.
I have gone through all the suggestions. Update assistant ,Media creation tool,Update troubleshooter , resetting windows update components and still get the error: initiation failed during First-Boot phase at Migrate-Data.
USB bootable disk also did not succeed. I have disabled all periferals , ran fksdsk, restore health, checked that all drivers are up to date etc.. and still get the same error.
Error messages from windows logs : Error Essent 455 Loggin/Recovery. Error Security center 17 None. Error Application error 1000 Application crashing Events. Error Security-SPP 16385 None. These occur multiple times in the log file.
I also disabled Firewall and anti virus software, all to no avail.
Any idea what else I might try ?

BoostSpeed ライセンスは最新のアップデートでも機能しますか?

現在バージョン14.0.1.3を使っています。
ライセンスは340日ほど残っておりますが、今日時点で14.1.0.0がリリースされました。
新しいバージョンのソフトウエアを使いたいとは思いますが、14.0.1.3購入時のライセンスで問題なく動くでしょうか?
それとも14.1.0.0を使うにあたって、また新にライセンスを購入する必要があるでしょうか?
教えてくださいませ。
