[killeno227]

Hi guys, I got the problem that my laptop will slow down or freeze when IDM downloaded files are being rebuilt and also a little bit slow down when winrar is extracting. This problem occur when I did it in my HDD storage. Also, I am using a SSD as my C: drive and I don't know why It can drop my laptop performance even when the SSD is not doing any works beside running Windows 10 OS. Thanks for any help!

p/s: When I tried to run a game in SSD storage with IDM is rebuilding the files It also make that game start very very slow.

why are you using a bug-ridden download manager in the first place? what's in the rar files? how big are they? are they games?

I don't know which one to use beside "that". Yes it is the game file and it size is 15GB

well any pc is going to slow down with sizes that large and many small files to uncompress so that is pretty normal for archive extraction

download managers are nothing but resource hogs to me, never use them, download through a browser I guess.

getting games in winrar archives usually means stolen games anyway so that is all the support you will get from me.
