That's a dead giveaway (pardon the pun) that one of your drives is ready to be taken out and thrown in the trash. Time to replace it and restore the back-up of your data there.

In the last 2 days my pc got much slower and i don't know why, and i don't know how to fix it.

Windows 10 boots up much slower now, fomr 15 sec to 6-8 minutes, opening games takes much longer.

I really don't know what to do

 

EDIT: the error is in dutch though'G:\VIDEOS isn't reacheble. The parameter isn't correct'

EDIT 2: i lost all my photos and videos of the last 10 years on that disk,it was my photo storage disk

Your disk is probably dead. What kind of disk do you have? Have you installed any new software?

Check for newly installed software by windows if you are running Windows 10. If you are running Windows 10 reboot 2-3 times and if that helps windows pushed something to your PC in the background. 

 

Also a simple check of task manager should show you what is running and taking up resources. (CTRL+SHIFT+ESCAPE)

 

Edit: so uninstall itch.io from yesterday and see if that fixes it.

Thanks!

If it was dead, then it wouldn't boot at all.

Run Crystaldiskinfo and upload the screenshot here for your G drive. I'm guessing it's kicked the bucket. A broken hard drive can bring a system to its knees, response time wise.

Disconnect both your HDDs and test if system still slow. Connect one drive after that.

Dying, but not dead.

 

If a drive is on its way out, then it'll be acting slow like that. If it's completely dead, then you won't get anything from it at all. That was my point.
