I have a 2012 laptop it was always fast suddenly it is so slow that it hangs every time it takes about 1 minute for the Windows key to respond
More information please.
Which laptop is it?
Maybe forget updates

that helps a little
I would strongly suggest that some application (task) is running in the background that eats enormous resources. Check it out via the task manager. If necessary, save your data and simply reset the box to ^^
Toshiba Satellite C670D - 126
So far all updates installed.
I will do that do you think if I go back to Windows 8 it will get better and which applications could it be what should I watch in TaskManager which program it can be?
Simply sort in the detailed view according to workload and observe what is always at the top when executing programs.
But is not a panacea.
In the end, this can be anything (except the idle process ^^). I would not go back.
Yes, it is at least a nice start.
