### **Windows 10 Slow? Common Causes and Quick Fixes**  

#### **Causes of Slowness**  
1. **Insufficient Hardware**: Low RAM, HDD instead of SSD, outdated CPU/GPU.  
2. **Too Many Startup Apps**: Unnecessary programs slowing boot times.  
3. **Background Processes**: Apps consuming resources silently.

5. **Outdated Software or Drivers**: Causes compatibility issues.  
6. **Full Storage**: Limited space slows system performance.

unnecessary programs.  
2. **Upgrade Hardware**: Install an SSD and add more RAM.  
3. **Check for Malware**: Scan using Windows Defender or antivirus tools.  
4. **Update Software/Drivers**: Keep everything updated via **Settings > Update
& Security**.  
5. **Free Up Space**: Use **Disk Cleanup** or uninstall unused programs.  
6. **Adjust Visuals**: Turn off animations in **System > Advanced Settings**.  
7. **Switch to High-Performance Mode**: Change power settings in **Control
Panel > Power Options**.  
8. **Clean Boot**: Use **msconfig** to start Windows with minimal processes.
