Problems with Windows 10 performance Issues may affect stability and functionality Check system updates regularly
So when Windows 10 first came out I was one of the few people who told everybody and their dog to install it because it was sooo great. Fast forward a year or so and I feel betrayed. All PCs below run Windows 10 and every PC runs it differently. My laptop, which has a 120GB 850 EVO and a Core i7 in it runs smooth as butter. Laptop 1 with an i5 and a HDD also runs good considering it is a HDD. Laptop 2, a bit weaker processor + HDD runs terrible. So unresponsive that it is unusable. Desktop 1 - i5 + HDD runs okay, intermittent unresponsiveness. Desktop 2 - AMD Phenom X4 9550 + (cheap chinese) SSD, somethimes ok, somethimes 10 min boot times + unresponsive Desktop 3 - AMD APU + HDD, unresponsive Now that is what I call inconsistency. Also these systems are not too old, and the hardware in most of them is more than capable. My question is what the hell is going on? Windows 7s performance was reflected on the underlying hardware. Windows 10 just seems to do a dice roll regarding its behavior. Also, most of the time disk usage is in unreal territory when idle. Any suggestions? Edit: I would also like to note that, Prefetch-Superfetch and Indexing is disabled. Windows Defender is disabled. Show me tips about Windows is disabled. Many background services are also disabled.

Everyone in the family uses these computers. Unfortunately, I performed a complete reset on all of them, and it didn’t help.
