- Restart it. Choose Restart, not Shut down: Windows can keep things running after a shut down. This fixes more than you’d think.
- Let updates finish. If Windows is installing updates, leave it to finish and restart when it asks.
- Close what you’re not using, especially browser tabs and programs you’ve left open.
- Check your storage. In Settings → System → Storage, see if your drive is nearly full. Empty the recycle bin and clear your Downloads folder.
- Note when it happens. Slow all the time, or only with one program? It helps us find the cause.
Still slow?
