My PC is being slow as fuck

[Joshcanread]

My pc is just being a complete shithole at the moment

Whenever I turn it on all the bull shit that I left open especially google chrome is like oh shit i should lock up his boot drive with my bs.

Sometimes if I turn it on and dont log in you can hear a youtube video playing and I havent even logged in yet (from shutdown state).

Also task manager lags which is like pretty embarrassing.

Nothing about your specs should be slow by any means, if you reboot in safe mode is it fast or slow still?

 

If it's still slow in safe mode, than you have a hardware issue, I would try downloading CrystalDiskInfo and check for failing drives, a failing drive will use all system resources trying to run it though bad sectors causing your computer to basically be completely unusable.

 

If it's fast in safe mode, than you have something software related slowing it down. Which in that case I would try disabling everything at start up and slowly reactivating one at a time rebooting each time to check if said re-enabled application is causing the slow down issues.

 

You can also try disabling hibernate if it's enabled, and then shut down completely, unplug your power cable, push the power button to clear residual power, plug it back in, and turn it back on from that state, that will at least guarantee it's not pulling start up program states from cache.
