Windows is booting slow

Pasgui9

For a couple of days Windows 10 has been booting very slow. It is on my main drive which is an SSD and it used to boot in under 30 seconds but now after the motherboard splash screen, the Windows loading screen appears followed by a dark backround with nothing that takes about half a minute to disappear only then to be met by the lockscreen. My start-up programs are minimal and only things that are necessary such as sound and mouse drivers and clearing my BIOS settings doesn't help.
