Question Slow boot and unresponsiveness after update, windows 10

[ethan.crabtree45648]

After the latest windows 10 update my pc takes forever to boot and is really unresponsive and slow. I know this is the cause of it cause that is the only thing that changed recently and it was working perfectly a day ago.

During the update it also seemed to take all night and reset instead of shutting down after even though i clicked update and shutdown

Any idea what is wrong and how to fix this?

Would help if we actually knew what the PC is made up of. Provide full system specs please, up to and including PSU make and model and PC and PSU age.

Apparently some newly released Windows 10 updates have been causing some problems. Yes, your problems might be due to that. Did you by any chance make a Restore Point prior to these updates some time ago? If so restoring the system to that point before the updates might be helpful.

Microsoft would probably fix these issue caused by latest updates soon.

If you still have the box or by looking inside the case on the side of the PSU exact make and model could help. A 6 years old PSU if of low quality can be bad news.

So im not actually at home rn and i wont be for a bit (went back to my dorm for the week). I heard MS wont let you roll back after like 10 days. Id this true? If they put out another update will this "override" the current one and fix these issues or will this be lasting if i dont do something about it?

That 10 days limit I think is for 'major builds'. Note sure, I don't think these recent updates were to a major build, were they? The typical updates can be rolled back and I'm not aware of any time limits for those.

If your problem was actually caused by the updates yes they'd probably patch things up with forthcoming updates.

Ah ok, thank you so much!
