PC suddenly weird (many problems)

[BetteBalterZen]

Hello everyone 

Today I started having multiple problems I've never had before. Was wondering if anyone else are experiencing new problem now? 

Started with my Edge(chrome version) browser began starting really slow, like it took 3-4 seconds for it to show. Tried reinstalling it and that did not help. 
Then I wanted to play Forza Horizon 4 and it crashes after 3 seconds ingame driving around (never crashed before)
Then I updated my Nvidia drivers to the newest one, also updated Windows to 2004. 
Now Edge needs 20 seconds to start, Nvidia overlay (shadowplay) can't be enabled, I can't open the friendstap from Steam, Discord now either crashes when I maximize it or it takes 5-10 seconds to open. 

I'm like what the hell happened? 

My temps are good, my PC's startup time is still the same. 

Do I really have to format my PC? I almost just did it...

ok, then check the health of your drives.

Typically a good overview can be provided with crystalDiskInfo

Report back if CDI says anything is less than perfect.

Ehm mine is Danish but it says "God" on all drives which means "Good", where "Perfect" in English would be "Perfekt" in Danish

All good, I speak a little (grew up in Copenhagen, a few blocks from the Little Mermaid)

Ok, so drives are good, malware is absent, next up is Event Viewer.

Under Control Panel, then Admin Tools, then Event Viewer, Window logs

List (in full detail please) all Red X error messages, especially under System and Application

Oh right, that's cool. 

Good to know my drives are okay. 

I will check the event viewer now. Thanks for all help so far.

Man, there is a lot of errors and warnings... Can I somehow export these? It's going to be a pain in the *** to write it all down 

[BetteBalterZen]

I have exported my application and system logs

But are these in Danish for you? 
 

applications.evtx System.evtx

You know what, I think I'll just format my PC before I go to bed. Then I'll download Forza Horizon while I'm sleeping. 

But anyway, thanks for all help - I'll report back after format on how my PC runs. 

[BetteBalterZen]

PC is formatted now and Edge does run normally again. Will now start downloading and installing all needed drivers and apps. 

[BetteBalterZen]

Steam runs normally again 

[BetteBalterZen]

Discord runs normally again 

[BetteBalterZen]

Can confirm the format of my PC fixed the problem(s)
