Hello,

I'm not at all a win10 specialist,
so, I need some help with this case ...

I use win10 x64 - 16GB ram
Normally when my laptop is in idle state, the cpu use is around 2%
but since a few days, the computer slowed down.
When I open the filemanager I see that the 'system' use is around 17.5%.
How can I return it to 2% ?
I was looking the internet but ...
I also see that win 10 is writing data to my HDD's - D:\$LogFile (NTFS-volumelogboek)

Thanks in advance,
marc

Hello Marc,

First, check with Windows Update that your PC has all the latest updates.
Use utilities such as Adwcleaner, CCleaner, Privazer, ... to check your system and clean it.
Also uses utilities such as Autoruns, Process Explorer, Process Hacker, Process Monitor to check what's running on your PC
On the Start tab of the Task Manager, check which processes are running at the start.
