    When was the last time you did some serious maintenance, including full patching and anti virus scan ?

    Hi DERICKGREEN,

    This is Makarand P from Dell Social Media and Communities team,

    With regards to your question, I would recommend you clearing junk files from the computer and run a virus check using a antivirus and ensure the antivirus you use is uptodate. Furthermore, please check in task manager if there is any particular process taking up a lot of memory on the computer. In such cases where there are processes taking up huge amount of memory, it would indicate a virus problem thus slowing down the computer.

    To clear cache and junk files, you could use a freeware like Ccleaner. To download Ccleaner, please click on the following link.
    Thank you for downloading CCleaner from CNET Download.com.

    Also check if you face the same problem when the computer is in safe mode with networking mode to eliminate the possibility of a virus.

    Kindly revert for further clarifications,

    Thanks and regards,
