The usual causes are a bad hard disk or malware. Why do you think it's "probably full of viruses"? Don't you use an antivirus? And waht exactly did you do when you "tried to clean it up".
Apart from answering this question, please include in your answer:
1. Link to a Speccy. https://www.ccleaner.com/docs/speccy/using-speccy/publishing-a-speccy-profile-to-the-web tells how to make it after you downloaded the program.
2. The top-5 of running processes in Task Manager (after sorting on CPU-usage).
Hi all,
I hope I am posting on the right place, if not, please let me know. I have some kind of problem with my laptop: it is super slow.
I don't use much (almost never) and I feel it's getting slower and slower. It's probably full of viruses or something but I tried to clean it up but I have been unsuccessful.
Can someone help me out?
Thanks ![]()
