Pay close attention because today we are going to teach you how to solve slow boot times in Windows 10 and 11, so pay close attention.
It is something that many of us have probably experienced, sometimes when turning on our PC, we can notice that it takes a long time to start and this is quite annoying.
Is your PC taking forever to boot up? Here are some ways to diagnose and fix slow startup times in Windows 10 and 11:
How to Fix Slow Boot Times in Windows 10 and 11
1. Check Fast Startup (if available):
- This feature speeds up startup by pre-loading information before shutting down.
- Search for "control panel" and open it.
- Look for "Power Options" and navigate to "Choose what the power buttons do".
- If you see "Turn on fast startup" (enabled by default), try disabling it.
- Note: Disabling might require hibernation to be enabled (see below if Fast Startup isn't an option).
2. Adjust Paging File Settings:
- The paging file acts like extra RAM on your storage drive.
- Search for "performance" in the Start Menu and choose "Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows".
- Go to the "Advanced" tab and click "Change" under "Virtual memory".
- Here, you can adjust the paging file size based on your RAM and recommendations.
3. Additional Solutions:
- Turn off Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) if not in use. Search for "turn windows features on or off" and uncheck WSL.
- Update Graphics Drivers. Outdated drivers can slow down boot. Update through Device Manager or the manufacturer's website.
- Disable Unnecessary Startup Programs. Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager and go to the "Startup" tab. Disable programs you don't need at startup.
- Run an SFC Scan. This checks for corrupted system files. Open Command Prompt (Admin) and type sfc /scannow.
- Upgrade to an SSD (or New PC). Solid-state drives significantly improve boot times compared to traditional hard drives.
Remember:
- These are all potential solutions. Try them one by one to see what works for your system.
- Upgrading your hardware (RAM or SSD) can be a big improvement if your computer is older.
