Oh, the joys of system upgrades! I feel your pain with the sluggish performance post-upgrade to Windows 11. It seems like a common theme many users have experienced. Here are a couple of steps you might want to try out to optimize your system performance:
Check for Background Apps: Sometimes, the issue can stem from too many apps running in the background. You can manage these by going into Settings > Privacy & security > Background apps and toggle off the ones you don't need running all the time.
System File Checker Tool: This is a handy tool for fixing corrupted files that might be slowing down your system. Just open Command Prompt as an administrator and type sfc /scannow. This will scan your system for issues and fix them automatically.
Adjust for Best Performance: You can tweak your system settings for better performance by going to System Properties > Advanced System Settings > Performance Settings and selecting 'Adjust for best performance'. This will change visual effects that could be bogging down speed.
Disk Cleanup and Defragmentation: Sometimes mature files and fragmented data can slow things down significantly. Running a disk cleanup and defragmenter can help tidy up your drive and improve speed.
Reset or Fresh Install: If nothing else seems to work, considering a reset or a fresh installation might be the last resort. It’s drastic but sometimes starts you off on a cleaner, quicker footing.
Hopefully, some of these suggestions help out! Let us know how it goes or if you find another solution that works wonders!
