Hi everyone! As some of you read, yesterday without permission my computer updated windows 10. I had shut off updates but it went along and did it anyways, right as I ran to the store for a minute. It was stuck for about 11 hours stopping me from getting my work done.
I have 5G internet, it's rocket fast. Never had a problem with my computer which cost me a fortune last May, other than a little glitch when it goes into sleep mode where I have to power boot it to get it to turn back on. Otherwise, it's a great system.
Well after the update yesterday, everything got REALLY slow. I mean snail speed. Takes me about 5 minutes to load a simple Facebook page. Sharing something takes equal time. In some cases, when I share a post on Facebook it suddenly shares like 10 times for some reason. As I'm writing this, the text is lagging about a sentence behind my actual typing here on Steemit.
Along with everything being deadly slow and some things not opening at ALL when I click on them, program codecs are suddenly glitched out. I can't open a couple of programs including my Skype recorder which I use for my interviews which of course are incredibly important to my job.
Something similar to this happened to my old computer and it absolutely destroyed it earlier in 2017. Now it doesn't even work when it's not plugged in and when it is plugged in it takes about 25 minutes to load anything.
I'm not sure what to do at this point. I need this computer for my work. For my living. I can't afford to constantly be going out and buying extremely expensive computers twice a year as well as paying HUGE internet bills to make things fast only for everything to get deadly slow regardless.
Are there any proper fixes? I don't want to have to buy a new laptop.
Also, I know many are going to tell me to get Linux. Okay, I will, but I need to solve THIS problem right now as I have a lot of work to get done.
