Why Browsing Speed Extremely Slow After Update

Oct 23, 2015

I have had windows 10 for about a month now and have had no problems. Today some updates were installed and straight after that my browsing speed became pretty much unusable. I have 160mbps download speed and have no problem browsing on other devices.

I cant watch a simple youtube video or download anything and am a bit lost.

Web Browsing Extremely Slow

Sep 14, 2015

I have recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10.  My web browsing is extremely slow,  I somehow feel that this started before the upgrade and may not be related to the upgrade.  I have to refresh some pages as many as 10 times before the page will load and overall web browsing is extremely slow.

Internet Speed Slow Only On One Computer After Update

Aug 4, 2015

After downloading Windows 10, my internet speed went significantly down, from 35 mbps to 4 mbps. I recovered my original Windows 8.1, hoping it was the new Windows that was causing the problem, but my computer is still very slow compared to what it used to be. I know the problem is in my computer because the three other PC's in my house are all working at normal speeds. I ran a virus scan with no luck. Could the Windows 10 upgrade have installed something that's still slowing down my internet?

Internet Speed Is Fine But Download Speed Is Slow

Oct 19, 2015

I do not know why, but ever since (thats when I started downloading again) I have upgraded from windows 8.1 to windows 10, downloading is really difficult. when I was still using 8.1, I used Orbit downloader to download my files, but since I have upgraded to windows 10, all apps were lost, and for some reason I cant download Orbit again.

Now I have been switching from on Download manager to the other, from Eagle Get, IDM, Jdownloader. still my download speed SUCK, it is slow as a turtle. but when I am playing online games it is fine, my ping is good, when I am streaming videos it is also fast. but when it comes to downloading IT IS SLOW. why ? is it because of the download manager ? I remember updating my Battlefield 4 and the speed is good. but now, it so slow.

Computer Extremely Slow?

Feb 12, 2016

Upon start up my computer is extremely slow and I get this message "cannot connect to Windows service". I can't open any of my documents or connect to google chrome. If I let it sit for about 10 minutes I can access google chrome and my files. I have taken the computer into the local computer fix it shop and they said there were a couple of broken registry paths, no malware and everything ran fine for them. The first couple of time I used the computer after getting it back home it worked great but now I'm back to square one. This is extremely frustrating.

Extremely Slow Boot - Over 1 Minute

Mar 14, 2016

I have windows 10 installed on a ssd drive and my boot time is around 2 minutes. I've tried everything that I could find online, such as: disable startup programs, enable fast boot etc. . I had some corrupt image files, but I repaired them using DISM and now 'sfc /scannow' is not returning any errors.

I want to mention that I did a clean install of windows 10(I did not upgrade it, I removed what I had before completely).

I had windows 7 which was booting really fast.

My system model is z97x-gaming 3 and I have 16GB RAM.

Extremely Slow Windows Explorer

Oct 5, 2015

My Windows 10 laptop, which previously had Windows 7 (I upgraded through Windows Update) is now having problems with the file explorer.It all started last night, when I was listening to some music with the windows media player, then it froze, a windows popped up asking me if I wanted to end the process and I said yes. From there, it all went downhill. My File Explorer is now EXTREMELY slow, I open a folder and it takes 1 or 2 minute for a new window to even open. Then it takes like 2 more minutes for the new window to even show things. When it does load i can't even scroll up or down or open another subfolder because it freezes and shows "Not responding" at least 3 time before even doing something.

At first I thought it was a performance Issue, but Steam, Task Manager and even games work perfectly fine. Maybe it's worth to mention that my task manager sometimes displays as if my disk was being completely 100% used, but then it goes back to 98%, then back to 100% again, and after a while it calms down and displays the actual percentage. My HDD is more than half free.

Also, when I first installed Windows 10 I had a BSOD Issue. Managed to solve my issue through dump files provided by the W7F Diagnostic Tool. I am trying to back up my most important files to my external hard disk right now in case I have to reset/format my PC, but since the File Explorer is extremely slow, the estimated copy time is more than a day.

Google Chrome won't open and using the Windows 10 search tool at the bottom left makes File Explorer crash sometimes.

File Explorer Extremely Slow And Unstable

Jun 12, 2015

So I just took part in the Windows 10 Insider Preview a couple of days ago, and I have to say, Windows 10 is a great step up from Windows 8, they did an excellent job so far. There's just one problem: File Explorer is extremely hard to use. Not only does the file explorer freeze all the time (even on folders with almost nothing in them), when it does freeze, it goes back to the top of the folder when it unfreezes.

What I mean is that I can be half-way down a 260-count file folder, like this:

Then it will freeze, and after it unfreezes, it goes back to the top of the folder, like so:

Doing simple tasks such as moving, copying, renaming, deleting and even scrolling and clicking causes File Explorer to freeze, sometimes even when it's idle!

And what's weirder is that the glitch doesn't happen when your opening a file for a specific program (say you click 'open' in Word and you get the 'Open' dialog box where you can pick a file).

I posted this over to Windows Feedback too, but I don't think it supports user comments, so I'm posting here to see if there's any fix. If there's any fix for this, let me know. It's been annoying me for a while now.

Why Is Firefox Extremely Slow - Even Lags When Try To Open A New Blank Tab

Apr 6, 2016

I switched from chrome to firefox since chrome was draining the battery of my xps 13 (i5, 4GB). Battery life after switching to firefox is significantly better, but performance wise, everything is so sluggish while using firefox. It even lags when I tried to open a new blank tab- took like have a second after I clicked the "plus" sign to open new tab, then opens the tab in segments. The lag also happens to almost every command I have for firefox.

Firefox Extremely Slow When Using YouTube And It Comes To Loading Videos

Computer Running Extremely Slow After Windows Defender Download?

Dec 30, 2015

Windows 10 Home (1511)
64-BitOS
 
I've had Windows for a few months now and never really had an issue until the past few days. Overall CPU performance/speed is way down. Firefox freezes then recoops every 2-3 minutes, adobe plugin constantly crashing, even to do things offline is crazy slow.
 
I downloaded Windows Defender probably a week or 2 ago and that is the only big change that I know of done on this computer. I used to run Malewarebytes, SuperAnti-Spyware and Advanced Windows SystemCare. But was told that Advanced Windows SystemCare was the devil and to try TFC (temp file cleaner) & MyDefrag instead. So now i'm running;
 
Windows Defender
MalewareBytes (free)
SuperAnti-Spyware(free)
TFC
MyDefrag
 
Is this combination making my computer un usable? Or something else?

Browser/Email :: Upgrade - Browsing Slow

Dec 13, 2015

Upgraded my Windows machine to 10 last week. I didn't want to take any chances so I did a totally clean install. I haven't made any tweaks or installed any programs. My laptop is an ASUS dual core AMD with 4GB of memory and a 750GB hard drive.

When I use Microsoft Edge it takes 3 seconds to open the browser and then when I type a website address it takes 7 seconds to fully load. I installed Chrome and while it's faster, it's not by much.

I have another laptop running Windows 7 on the same network. It opens websites almost instantly. It does have better hardware - Intel i7, quad core, 8gb of ram, 500gb ssd. However, web browsing isn't a resource intensive activity so I would suspect hardware differences would not have a material impact.

Browser/Email :: Microsoft Edge Extremely Slow In Opening Applications Or Loading Web Pages

Aug 3, 2015

Noticed that Microsoft Edge being extremely slow in opening applications or loading web pages or is it just me? Sometimes it takes ten to thirty seconds to open webpages with the dreaded spinning circle. It would be a while before I could clean install due to lack of funds but I wonder if it's my 25/25 internet or just edge being the culprit?

Internet Download Speed Really Slow On One Device

Dec 10, 2015

I got an aorus x5 about 1 week ago which came with windows 8.1 which I immediatly upgraded to windows 10, but the internet dowload speeds are incredibly slow purely on that laptop, I have tested the internet speeds using speedtest.net and on my old laptop (an msi gp60 2pe) I am getting 40.23 mbps download and 7.67 mpbs upload with a ping of 17ms on firefox, on my phone (a sony xperia z3) I am getting ping 20ms, download of 26.96mbps and upload of 8.84mbps on their app, and on my aorus I am getting anything from 0.01mbps to 4.36 mbps dowload and 8.67mbps to 8.92mbps upload with a ping of 9-14ms, having tested with edge, ie, firefox, chrome and opera. I am not running any amd hardware and I have disabled bandwith control through killer network manager, however at the time of writing when I test through killer I got 4.98 and through firefox I get 1.42 (both use speedtest.net), so I would assume it is a regulator of some sort, but I can't find one anywhere. I also get reasonable speeds through steam (around 11mbps) but it is quite a way off the 35 mbps down and 7mbps up I am supposed to get

Internal File Transfer Slow Down Download Speed?

Feb 10, 2016

If I tranfere big files and lots of them internally in my HDD Drive, I have noticed that if I play a videofile at the same time it will lag. I understand this is because the internal write and read speed is overloaded because of the file transfere.

What I want to know is, will the file transfere also slow down my download to the same drive, since the filetransfere is using almost all of the write speed?

Browser/Email :: YouTube Slow Connection Speed IE11?

Feb 10, 2016

I've been noticing a slower than normal connection/download speeds for youtube videos. All other file and video streaming sites and file downloads use my full bandwidth speed while youtube sometimes streams at half or less my full bandwidth speed. I use youtube's stats for nerds connection speed and task manager for my readings.

Things I've noticed with youtube:

1. The more youtube videos I watch the slower/lower the connection speed is for youtube videos. I don't have this problem with other sites.

2. Deleting the cookies for google.com and youtube.com along with the temporary internet files doesn't restore full connection speed.

3. A larger file cache is used when you select your quality manually vs auto with the same quality.

Things I have changed in windows:

1. Change Maximum Download Connections per Server Limit in Internet Explorer is set to 16 in group policy.

2. Limit reserved bandwidth is set to On and 0% in group policy.

3. Internet explorer data space to use is set to 1024MB.

Networking :: Internet Speed Slow On One Computer But Fine On The Rest Of Computers

Nov 2, 2015

I just updated to Windows 10 but I think the problem was with Windows 8 too, Sometimes my internet is out on my PC while the internet is still up on my brothers PC, tho this problem happens about 3 times a very few days.. We have 5+ computers in the house and 4 are on daily while 3 is being used daily the 4th one is not very used daily and sometimes off most of the time. So the 2 computers have Windows 10 and 3rd computer has Windows 7 while the 4th computer has Windows 10 also. I read on an article which says that Windows 10 uses bandwidth without you know and I checked task manager and on windows 8 my CPU and Memory was just fine and when I upgraded to Windows 10 my CPU spiked to about 20% and Memory spiked to about 72% and sometimes random numbers appear on all 4 sections( CPU, Memory, Disk, Network).

Performance :: How To Limit Update Download Speed

Sep 3, 2015

I did a search and only found hits referring to a metered and/or WiFi connection, neither of which applies to me.

I have only a (nominal) 2Mbps connection -- which is the fastest available in my neighborhood. This has been a problem with Windows updates all along, but since I've upgraded to Win10, the trouble is exacerbated to the point that the internet is sometimes unusable when I'm getting an update from MS. This is especially problematic in that my spouse works online for a living, so MS eating up the bandwidth affects her job directly.

So, my question is in two parts:

1. Is there any setting whereby I can limit the download speed of the Windows updates? I don't wish to defer or stop any, just make them very low priority for bandwidth.

2. Is there any setting/switch I can toggle that will show (like the old flag icon in Win7) that there are Windows Updates downloading, so that I can tell whether any internet sluggishness is because of Windows or just the connection itself (which, living here the Third World, is far from constant). I'm hoping to document these fluctuations for an ongoing attempt to get better service from our ISP.

I realize this isn't really the place to lodge a complaint with Microsoft, but it sure would be nice if they (and other international software companies) would consider those of us who do not live in Redmond, Chattanooga, or other places with light-speed internet connections when they set things up.

After Update PC Is Very Slow With Disk Always 100%

Sep 13, 2015

My son's PC upgraded to W10 and was running fine for 1 month. After an update 2 weeks ago, it slowed to a crawl taking 30-60 min to finish startup and 10 min to launch apps. Rolling back to Windows 8 didn't work. Malwarebytes didn't find anything but Chrome/Firefox stopped loading so I am limited in doing further scans. The only thing that works in real time is the mouse cursor. Based on the task manager, the CPU use is low but the C: disk is always at 100%. I don't want to wipe all stuff with a reset.

Specs
Intel I7-4770 3.4Ghz
8 GB DDR3
Nvidia Geforce GTX 760 2gb
1TB SATA
