Windows pushed me to upgrade to the latest 20H2 version, so I did. When I started the computer, it ran slowly without any programs running and the storage usage was high (around 80-100%). Is there a way to revert to an older version? I own a decent old machine.

Check the disk activity in Resource Monitor under the Disk tab, selecting Organize by Total (B/sec). Review the full system specifications to identify the cause.

It seems the system froze unexpectedly, though animations and dragging work fine. Your setup includes an Asus H81M-PLUS with an I5 4590, 16GB RAM, and an RX 570 GPU.

When you launch Task Manager, look at the left-hand column in the Performance section for any odd activity. Then click the GPU option to expand the graphs view. Verify this while you're just sitting at your computer. I recommend a DDU reset of your display drivers and reinstalling them.

Sure thing. I restarted the PC and everything looked normal at first (though I still thought it was the GPU). Thanks for your time, Rickeo!

I'm shocked I didn't think of turning it on and off earlier. This is the first time I'm trying it, but it seems to be working now.
