Hi
for a few days my laptop is running so slowly. For example, things just load everything!
is that probably because I have many pictures and videos on it?
Do you have ideas what could be?
Look how much space is left on the hard disk.
Check how much space you have left. What could help is that you delete unnecessary files (even programs). If that does not help, make a backup of important files, e.g. On a USB stick and then reset the Complete PC. The Windows license remains saved.
But it loads so slowly
I can't do anything! He is so slow that it does not seem to work!
The number of files on the disk does not reduce the startup time because the files are not opened.
If Windows is taken over by parasites, the computing time for you can easily go to zero.
Look in the manual, how Win can be reinstalled.
If you want to save your files in advance, then boot the computer (call boot menu is in the manual and the first start screen) from a Linux DVD (for example, mint free of linuxmint.com) from a Linux magazine. With the file manager, all data to be saved can now be copied to a USB disk.
If no optical drive is installed, then use a USB-DVD-LW or insert the plate (from the laptop) in an ICY box for 8 euro and connect to another computer - so the data elegantly save, without that corrupt win is needed on the source disk.
If in the future your computer should remain permanently fast and virus-free, Mint can be installed easily and free of charge. The free operating system Mint is the most popular on this planet, but thanks to the GNU / GPL license has no restrictions or user deficiencies or espionage as the payment operating systems built.
Mint and the other Linux are absolutely beginner-fit.
That's why you'll have to see how full the hard disk really is.
