Windows issues after restarting the laptop
Details: Dell g3 3579 i7 8750H GtX 1050ti with 16GB RAM, 1TB HDD and 128GB SSD. Every restart causes major issues in the OS. First incident occurred post League of Legends update; client froze, I closed it and forced a Windows restart. It booted but was sluggish—similar to 1995 HDD performance and no internet access via WiFi or Ethernet (connected, no connection). Second time, Internet Download Manager was outdated; I removed it after use and restarted. It asked to restart again, still slow and no connection. Third incident involved deleting a .dll file from Dark Souls, restarting afterward—pattern emerged. Fourth time, fresh Windows was installed and restarted immediately to verify; confirmed the problem persisted. Overall, recurring performance and connectivity failures.
