1:16 to 1:21. This also resolves common problems with getting a storage drive that you use as an external plug n play storage drive between Windows and a LInux distro not normally showing up/auto mounting in Linux too ( I keep those types of drives formatted to exFat for ultimate plug n play usage)
Omg, thanks so much. I bought my pc like 5 months ago and like 2 months ago it started to slowly start up. Now it takes like 5sec. You deserve way more subscribers! ;)
Two things I feel missing from this, a mention of a Windows 10 debloat script and (to a lesser extent) setting certain services to be automatic delayed. Other than that, the prime things to speed up Win 10 booting is to remove non essential programs from the startup and adding an SSD (those two things you do mention).
@@kaidenmartinez7727, My issue was I only had 4GB of RAM. I upgraded to 8GB, and my laptop became usable again under Windows. Although, it is a dual-boot machine and I spend 90% of my time in Debian 10 Linux.
As things look right now, there is absolutely no fix for Win10 slow boot. Many say that the only thing that works is to throw out your HDD hard disk and get an SSD. However, in the meantime, many people with SSD also get that problem. After hundreds of MS updates, every computer/laptop is brought to its knees. So it seems only a fresh install with the latest Win10 version produces relief.
thank you thank you thank you. my machine started so slow that often my monitor wouldn't start. i've watched only half of you video on the subject and my machine (and monitor) starts right up. did I say, thank you thank you thank you
I'm the laziest Windows user possible. I've literally done in-place upgrade with my current desktop since Windows 8.0 . Amazingly it hasn't slowed down much if at all over the years. That might be partially because I've also just been cloning my C drive when it gets full, I started with a 256GB SSD and now I'm on a 1 TB drive. The larger drives always benchmark much faster than the smaller sizes. I use Macrium Reflect usually but I've also used the Samsung cloning utility which is also effective and free. I feel like I should update but my old Intel 3820 i7 still runs fine albeit a bit loud. Is it worth upgrading? Light gaming and photo editing works fine. Besides I have a lifetime licence to Malwarebytes which is no long available, and obviously I'm cheap. I also use Sysinternals Autoruns to edit my startup programs.
The big problem which is largely glossed over in this video is that in Startup items, the average user doesn't know which items can be disabled and which are important.
Thank you so much the 2nd option worked! I thought I am about to throw my daughter's old laptop for school after boot time took forever! More power to you!
Guys, do not disable fast boot. When I have it enabled, my last bios time is 7 seconds. Disabling fast boot puts it over 20 seconds. Only have fast boot disabled if you need to go into your BIOS regularly.
Thanks for this tipps! But on my system the biggest "slow boot" problem are the hard drives. Windows is running on a SSD but all the rest of data is on regular hard drives via SATA III. If I unplug all the hard drives except the Windows SSD, the boot time is about 20-30 sec but with the hard drives its about 2-3 minutes. Do you know a setting which boot the hard drives right after the start from Windows? Thanks for your help!
Thank you for the helpful video but I have a question. 5:24 When I looked up my 'Last BIOS time', under Task Manager-Start Up tab, it said 0, 0 seconds. Is that normal? I tried googling it but got nowhere.
Question about hibernate on/off somebody said that is only for loptops and not desktops? Also a question about the ryzen 5 2600 I feel that it needs a better cooler for slight overclock, or should I go for 2600X? Thank you
As an old timer, I just have my LENOVO ThinkCentre M58 desktop PC, which is 13 years old now. It takes 32 seconds to reach the windows 10 Pro 20H2 password entry point after power up, and 5 seconds to power down. But this antique can still run RU-vid videos at 1080p 60 fps without any frame loss. Is that any good for a 13 year old cheap computer ?
Someone help me, every time I turn on my pc it always has to update, but it ends up failing so I have to wait once more, I try update it on the main settings but it just doesn’t work, and on top of all of that, booting is slow, it’s installed on my ssd and it had 20gb free
please make a video to fix these 4 different kinds of install errors in windows 10. 1)Runtime Error (at 180:321); SWbemLocator: The executable program that this service is configured to run does not implement the service. 2)process id-0xb24(2852) click ok to terminate the application. click cancel to debug the application. 3)unable to create a temporary file.setup aborted. Error 123:the filename, directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect. 4)Runtime error 216 at 00419321 5)installed malwarebytes antimalware and when run gives the error "unable to connect the service" if sfc/scannow and chkdsk aren not able to fix them.
Good ole Windows 10 has taken away my ability to change the advanced settings for these options. it says "Some settings are managed by your system administrator" but I'm the only account on the PC and I'm the administrator. :( Nothing I do fixes this issue. Not a clean wipe and re-install, not third party programs, not scripts, it's like Microsoft knows what they are doing to their customers and what their customers are doing to stop them, and then with every new update, they take away more and more of a users privileges.
Thanks for the video but it doesn't help my case. I use a 970 EVO Plus 500GB nvme. Everything was fine, used to boot in a couple of seconds. I could barely see the windows logo, but suddenly it started taking 25-30 seconds after bios loading (windows loads for 25-30 sec). Everything else is fine, all mechanical drives at 100% health and working as intended, even the nvme ssd is as responsive as before. Just the boot is taking very long. Any ideas to resolve this hideous issue? Thanks.
I could from a time when you used to turn the computer on and go a make a cup of tea because the pc used to take that long to boot, so 20 seconds or less is not to bad.

My Win 10 (on two systems) has gone from reasonable to 40 MINUTES yesterday and 50 minutes today! Any thoughts? (I'm now concerned about shutting the current PC off at all!)
I have 1905 mb as virtual memory recommended. My specs are 8gn ram , i5 (9th gen), nvidia gtx 1650 , 1tb hdd. What should i enter ?? I just bought new lappy( lenovo l340) yesterday but it takes more than 2 min to boot
@@frost8687 Toshiba should have a free Tool to test that hard drive and it will find and hopefully repair the bad sectors and other possible issues. But you are 100% right about backing up your files.
My bootup time is 8.7 seconds. Is that even possible? I dont even know how I got to this video but hey I learned something new and realized I dont have a problem with my boot time so im not touching anything. 😆 Man this laptop impresses me with something new everyday, I swear. Im glad I got it now.
@@salalajko1 Damn that's fast. It really is nice isnt it? I remember waiting minutes than having to dial up internet on aol in the 90's. Haha We def came a long way!
@@CantTreadOnMe bro few months ago i had my 9year old pc which was booting like 3minutes atleast it was usable xD ..so im glad i have this machine now haha im glad you got one too 😊
Strange, before win 10 I had win 8.1 and my start-up only was 20 - 30 seconds if so on a Samsung HDD from like years ago, hope this tips help me out, now it takes 5 minutes or more, it's never constant either
Bro just to explain 4.1 seconds is the time that your BIOS takes to acionate your HDD/SDD and then start the operating system the boot time is not the BIOS is windows 10 itself.
So I have a new computer build (3950X) with a PCIE 4.0 m.2 SSD that runs my OS and about 3 video editor apps. My boot times are averaging between 20-23 seconds even after doing everything you stated. Is this fast? Because with the hardware I have, I would've expected faster boot times.
My Virtual Memory settings are as followed: Minimum allowed: 16 MB Recommended: 2937 MB Currently allocated: 10752 MB This is default or whatever, so you're telling me to change it? Will this mess me up in any way? What is virtual memory?
Virtual Memory just helps you run multiple apps at once. The more memory you have, the more apps it can run at once. If you add any more VM, it won't do anything. My virtual memory is 32GB. You should take your RAM, and times that by 3, and thats the amount of GB you should use in your virtual memory.
windows 10 is just shit. I had win7 on my old computer, and i had a usable desktop within 30 seconds of hitting the power button. this new build uses win10, and has much faster hardware. it takes 2 minutes to get to a usable desktop. i've already done a bunch or tweaks. stupid bit is that i shouldn't have to tweak anthing, i didn't need to jump through hoops to get 7 to move it's ass.
I bought a new Lenovo laptop having i3 processor, 4GB RAM, 1TB HDD, and most of the times it takes 5 minutes to boot up. It has 860+ GB free in it but customer care is saying me to upgrade RAM, insert SSD. This booting times is so much and my laptop hangs also. Will these methods help me?
That does not make sense. I have a 13 year old LENOVO ThinkCentre M58 desktop PC, and it boots up in 32 seconds, and shuts down in 5 seconds. It has an antique Q9500 QUAD INTEL processor, 8GB RAM, and 256GB SSD. I am currently using the "Windows 10 Pro version 20H2" operating system. But let it be noted, that all h e l l was happening in timing when I still was using an HDD instead of an SSD. You might also want to down load a free version of CCLEANER and check for any "Registry" problems, and of course perform the usual "Custom Cleaning".
@@supreetsingh3347 Well look at it this way. Just for you I removed one of the two 4GB memory strips, and thus I was now running on 4GB RAM only. Here are the bootup and shut down results. 34 seconds bootup, and 4 seconds power down. Only minor changes overall. On my LENOVO, running at 8GB was virtually the same as with 4GB, when dealing with bootup and shut down timings.
