Windows 11 started taking a lot longer to start up.
Windows 11 started taking a lot longer to start up.
I bought an Acer Aspire 7 A715-41G with a powerful R5 chip and a GTX card. My hard drive has a Kingston SSD that works fine until now. When I turn the laptop on, it used to take only ten or fifteen seconds. But today, it takes two minutes just to start Windows. I checked the official sites for AMD and Nvidia drivers, but nothing changed. The SSD is still working fast. I don't know why this slow down happened all at once in one day.
Welcome to the forums! Check if your laptop needs any BIOS updates. You should also check if your computer's OS has pending updates. A bad update can make your computer slow down or cause it to fail. Also, an SSD might be breaking down. I'd keep a USB drive with Windows 11 installation tools handy in case you need to reinstall the system. But first, back up all your most important data just in case. You could also try restoring your computer's settings from before the problem started.
