View 1 RepliesI've been having trouble the last few weeks with Google Chrome. I click to open Chrome and it takes a solid 10-15 minutes before it opens. It works perfectly fine when up and running and there's no issues with speed once it's opened.

I made the upgrade to windows 10 and am getting annoyed because I am unable to use my chrome browser as default. I have it set as default, but it still won't launch or open at all. I can search using google, but can't get chrome to launch? Ready to go back to windows 8 already.
View 1 RepliesSo after i upgraded to Windows 10 i noticed my Computer was running slower. I hoped it will become better after a while but so far nothing improved, i also noticed that starting the PC up takes forever.
But the real problem is that it keeps Crashing due to overheating when trying to play a game. I used to play the game on Ultra-settings with firefox in the background no problem on Win7 but now it crashes even when nothing else is running and the game is set to low.
so last night I fell asleep at my laptop, my girlfriend took it off me put she didn't shut it down, she just closed it. Now today I opened her up and I knew that it needed to be restarted, so windows froze and I thought, that probably because its been on all night, so I hard shut it down with the power button. However now when I boot it, it boots fine, but windows is horribly slow, so much that it crashes,

View 2 RepliesSince upgrading to Windows 10 my computer won't shut down properly. I use the menu button shutdown and the screen goes blank, but the system does not fully shut down. The only way to get it to shut down is to hold the physical power button down till it shuts down. Then when I restart the system warns me that the last shutdown did not work properly and it gives me a choice to troubleshoot or restart. When I choose restart everything seems to load as normal.
View 53 RepliesI am having an issue right now that my computer won't shutdown the leds and fan still keep running after the screen has turned black. I need to hold the power button in order to shutdown my computer.
I recently installed an SDD and since then I am having the issue.
I have 7 or 8 computers around the house, most dual boot Windows 10 pro x64 and Linux. When you shutdown a Windows machine and start a Linux machine there are errors and Linux won't boot (The HDD's weren't shutdown properly ~ the OS's have there own SSD's && share a data drive, this is the drive that registers the error). You have to boot windows and shutdown from a cmd 'shutdown.exe /s /t 0' or similar. Is there a way to set windows to actually shutdown with the standard gui shutdown routine?
View 3 RepliesAfter the Windows 10 upgrade my laptop cant shutdown fully. When i try to turn off my PC, everything goes well at the beginning, almost everything goes off. The things that remain on looks like to be only the fans and the LED of the power button. I dont know what to do.
View 18 RepliesI have a problem with pop up dialog boxes on Windows 10 not displaying the content fully. Its rather frustrating as I can not see most of the text or the buttons to click on. I have changed my resolutions to different ones and also display size but the problem still persists. It only seems to do this with pop up dialog boxes, such as software installation boxes. My display is a 48" Samsung 4K TV rung HDMI from a Nvidia GTX 980Ti GPU.
View 1 RepliesMy laptop has a battery light which tells me when my laptop is fully charged. When it is fully charged (it is green), Windows still says "05 minutes until fully charged" and then charges for another half hour. In the past the light has been reliable, so I believe that windows 10 is the issue. My laptop has also had significant issues with charging. I can confirm this with two batteries. I have an Asus K55VD which I haven't changed the battery plugs in or anything like that. What could my problem be? Here's what I've tried:
-Disabling and re-enabling Microsoft ACPI-Compliant Control Method Battery (no change)
-Turning power saving off in BIOS (did a bit with the charging problem)
-Fixing the fan (turns out it wasn't spinning, which caused a range of issues. Worked for battery charge issue a bit)
-Keeping the laptop shut down (didn't work)
-Keeping it asleep (didn't work)
-Keeping it on with the screen off (did work it charge)
Yet I can't find a fix for the battery charging percentage and time issue.
I have two computers my laptop has updated to windows 10 with the automatic upgrade with no problems.
But my PC will not start the upgrade I was told to look in the temp folder $Windows.~BT.
The size of this folder was 5.88 GB. And had been like that for a couple of days.
After reading on [URL] .... It said that the upgrade might be corrupt I followed the advice and went to (Windows/ Software Distribution/ Download) and deleted everything in that folder. Then I ran the command prompt as an administrator. Type in "wuauclt.exe /updatenow".en as advised on the website.
Almost straight away the windows upgrade started again but it has gone back to the 5.88 Gb and stopped again
Looking at windows update and view update history I see there are 6 failed attempts to upgrade to windows 10 all with Error details code 80240020....
I have a strange problem in my laptop. Yesterday I charged my laptop to 100% in the night and when I woke up in the morning the laptop was showing red light indicating the low battery. I wonder how the battery drained so quickly overnight while the laptop is shut down?! And this is not the first time its happening, I am facing this problem after I upgraded to Windows 10.
View 24 RepliesI have a strange anomaly with my HP Pavilion dv7-1245dx Entertainment Notebook that had Windows 8.1installed. When I started bootup, it got so far and froze up. I had to do a hard shutdown. On the second try, the laptop starts, but takes an inordinately long time to get to the lock screen.
I thought that when I installed my 240 GB SSD drive and installed Windows 10 that the anomaly would be gone, but it's still happening.
If I shut down, I have to go through the two bootup tries again.
I expected far more better booting times from Win 10 than this, my PC used to boot up in like 15 secs on Win 8.1 and now its 30+
Before the lockscreen I just get black screen for atleast 10 sec,
HP desktop I just put new hard drive in and installed Windows 10. The Windows 7 hard drive was failing, had no backup or image. Tried to access drive with USB but drive too far gone.
Decided to install Windows 10 as an upgrade. After a few minor glitches like no activation, was finally able to install and activate.
Used USB Build 10586, 1511 and was able to activate using the Key on the COA sticker. (Alphanumerical). PC now will take up to 20 minutes before boot.
The black screen, blue Windows flag and spinning dots just sits there. All of a sudden, it continues to boot. I don't have any programs, apps, starting.
In fact, it just booted now to the User name, passed, and now is at Desktop. Had been starting for about 20 minutes as I'm posting this. In the Task Manager, Startup, I don't have anything enabled.
When you do WindowsPowerShutdown,Monitor goes blank immediately, showing no more programs running. However the computer remains on for quite a long time (guess 2~3 mins), before it finally turns off - fan shuts down and everything seems to shut down at that point.
View 15 RepliesSo, I've encountered this issue lately where Windows 10 takes considerably longer to boot than before. (Usually 4 to 5 minutes) It used to boot under 30 seconds before so I don't know what went wrong here.
So, the screen with the Windows logo and loading circle disappears quickly but then it hangs after when a black screen appears with nothing but the mouse cursor(Which can be moved around.) This is the infact main problem, the black screen remains for quite a time before the user screen appears then the desktop. What can cause this problem? Can it be an update, as I never had this issue before neither with Windows 8?
Recently i've updated my Windows 10 Pro x64 with that big November update without any issues except that now searching through registry takes literally forever because it never ends. It still finds entries but eventually it would just get stuck on searching and if i try to cancel it - regedit crashes.
This seems to happen somewhere during the search through HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE entries because i can search fine up to HKLM and past it but not inside it.
I've been wondering what could be causing this?
I've also tried exporting HKLM entries and found out that it's about 230 mb which seems a lot for a registry.
Ever since I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10, I've noticed on many occasions that it takes very long to shut down. Just yesterday, I waited around 4 hours before finally deciding to shut it down by pressing and holding on to the power button. It was just showing the "Shutting Down..." with a blue background throughout the entire time I have waited.
View 1 RepliesSo I have a 200 GB Hard Drive on my computer. A couple of days ago I got a notification mentioning there was not ten GB of space left. I was surprised, but I assumed I just had more on it than I thought. However, since then I have re-installed Windows for my own reasons and was surprised to find despite removing all documents and applications in the re-installation, I only had 90 GB free. This leaves 110 taken up by an unknown cause. I could not find many large files in file explorer when I searched for large files (file:gigantic).
View 6 RepliesHorizontal task bar works just fine but vertical task bar on left side (same problem on right side) is very wide with a small column of task icons in the center. Basically unusable when a vertical task bar is configured. I've tried with and without Classic Start Menu and it does the same thing.
View 2 RepliesI have this problem where after some hours of use (~3, for example) the windows explorer takes up 40-50% of the CPU causing major performance loss. I do not know what is causing this problem, as it does have to do with my activity, since when this happens I am not using the explorer in the means of opening a file or moving data.
