Why is my Windows 10 slow? I have a laptop with 16 GB RAM and core i7 2.4. I did everything written on the internet, but it is still slow and has a lot of bugs.
I have a laptop with nearly identical specs, specifically a Dell 5559. It was excruciatingly slow at times. When I opened Task Manager, the 1 TB hard disk was nearly always thrashing at 100% but the processor and memory were seldom running above 50% capacity - and usually much less. That’s a pretty good clue of where the bottleneck was. I replaced the spinning drive with a good Samsung SSD and now the little machine runs lightning fast.Task Manager is an excellent built-in tool for troubleshooting performance problems. Open it up in detail view and run some programs while watching activities under the Perfomance tab to see which component is the bottleneck. Also open the Process tab and see if there are any programs hogging resources.Since you have an i7 processor and 16 gigs, I would bet that your hard drive is the problem.If not, and you find some resource-hogging program processes under the Process tab, kill them and and see if that helps. Don’t kill any Microsoft processes that you are not sure of; they may be essential to the OS. But, if you do cause a crash, a restart will also start up the essential processes once again, fixing your error.

Is there anyway to get internet to windows 8 apps other than using FIddler?
It's the proxy problem. I read somewhere something called netsh might help. It didnt work for me. I tried openvpn, it worked for me. It creates a new network with no proxy requirement. Use vpnbook with openvpn. Speed is little slow but gets the job done
Will Windows 10 slow down my PC?
Oh God yes it absolutely will! 2 GB RAM and i3 processor-based system is not something you want to run Windows 10 on. My system is an i3 5th gen processor and has 4 GB RAM, and my laptop was slower than a snail with Windows 10. Had to revert back to the good ol’ Windows 8.1, and it’s now blazing fast as it was.Windows 10 has countless processes that keep running in the background, so it will devour both your system resources and internet data even if your system is kept idle.
Windows 8 factory reset going extremely slow?
Let it finish. Depending on your hard drive size and the method that Windows 8 uses for Fully Cleaning the Drive, it could take a whole day to finish. At your stated progress, you need 18 -20 more hours. Calculating Time While times will vary based on the factors listed above, a consumer grade, 20 gigabyte IDE hard drive, being wiped with a single pass of zeros being written to the drive, will take about an hour to complete. Using a DoD-approved level of data eradication, one which utilizes nine passes of random writes, that same 20 gigabyte hard drive will require the better part of a day to complete. In cases where a drive with a capacity of a terabyte will be wiped using the DoD-approved nine passes of randomly written ones and zeros, it is very likely that this process will take in excess of one month of 24 hours per day processing to finish this wiping procedure. http://www.ehow.com/how-does_5183376_long-wipe-hard-drive_.html *Next time choose REFRESH, unless you are selling or recycling the laptop. ☻☺☻☺☻☺☻☺☻☺☻☺☻☺☻☺ WHAT HAPPENED?? It is one day later. Did it finish the Reset?
