I am Adelani Adekunle. I have installed Windows 10 on my system but it made my system slow. Is it not compatible with my system requirements?

Windows 10 shouldn't be slower than what you used to have. But you didn't tell what that was (Windows 95 maybe?). And you don't tell anything about your hardware. And you didn't tell how you installed Windows 10 (as an upgrade of Windows 7 or Windows 8.1 or as a clean install). So that makes it impossible ti give any meaningful answer.

My experience is that it's faster.

But I'm installing on supported hardware. The best example I have is some 2009 Sony Core2Duo with 4GB RAM. We were just about to move it out when the W10 offer came down. It's very usable now. Well done Microsoft.

As to what's going on with your system? You didn't tell much so folk can't guess what's up.
