PC startup takes too long
If I have to restart, it takes 20 minutes or more to load completely. I have basically nothing in startup and can't figure out what is making this take so long. It's the same whether a restart or new start. The hard drive is only a little over half full with lots of pictures. Logically it has to be in either ASUS or windows (10). It's very frustrating and because it takes so long to load, I leave it running. For quite a few years I paid for a service that cleaned the system once a month and helped with any problem. I am no longer using it as it was expensive and even though I stressed the startup time issue, they never improved it.
You can see a lot about the machine, but it doesn't say it's an ASUS 15" laptop, purchased in September of 2014, model R510LAVS51 with core i5
I didn't know if you needed this, but I'd rather give you unnecessary information than have you come back to me.
thanks so much

Windows search very slow
Hi there,
Windows search indexer seems to be taking forever to finish.
I have restarted the process, limited the number of files to index and even disable the AV to allow indexer to index faster.
But after a while it comes back and keeps eating away between 60% to 24% of CPU
Any fix for that? runing on (win11 64 bits.

Eliminar una partición creada por Windows
Mi laptop HP tiene una memoria de 120GB. De los cuales hay una partición llamada HP_RECOVERY (G) que ocupa 21GB.
Cuando adquirí la laptop traía el Windows 7, ahora tiene el Windows 10.
Todo el disco duro lo uso para instalar software, no hay archivos de ningún tipo almacenados excepto los del sistema y de las aplicaciones que tengo instaladas.
Todos los datos de otro tipo (básicamente imagenes),los manejo a través de discos duros externos.
Deseo eliminar la partición (G) con el fin de abrir más espacio en el disco duro de la laptop, ¿Es posible?
Microsoft Office Formulas not working correctly
when formulating a two page expression, the first page is not reading the second expression. I have given you the two formulas - I would hopefully like to have this sorted; if possible.
the first one should denote the year: In this case 2020
=IF(MONTH($A$5)<>MONTH($A$5-(WEEKDAY($A$5,1)-($I$2-1))-IF((WEEKDAY($A$5,1)-($I$2-1))<=0,7,0)+(ROW(A7)-ROW($A$7))*7+(COLUMN(A7)-COLUMN($A$7)+1)),"",$A$5-(WEEKDAY($A$5,1)-($I$2-1))-IF((WEEKDAY($A$5,1)-($I$2-1))<=0,7,0)+(ROW(A7)-ROW($A$7))*7+(COLUMN(A7)-COLUMN($A$7)+1))
The second shouldgive me the first day of the year:
=IF(MONTH($A$5)<>MONTH($A$5-(WEEKDAY($A$5,1)-($I$2-1))-IF((WEEKDAY($A$5,1)-($I$2-1))<=0,7,0)+(ROW(A7)-ROW($A$7))*7+(COLUMN(A7)-COLUMN($A$7)+1)),"",$A$5-(WEEKDAY($A$5,1)-($I$2-1))-IF((WEEKDAY($A$5,1)-($I$2-1))<=0,7,0)+(ROW(A7)-ROW($A$7))*7+(COLUMN(A7)-COLUMN($A$7)+1))
Question, is this even possible?
