Windows 10 Windows 10 seems to struggle with too many windows, where Windows 7 went strong

While moving files accross hard drives, and doing some backups, my system almost crashed, and was lagging tremendously. I do much more hard core multi tasking usually, and Windows 7 handled it fine

Hoping there's a fix!

How long has Windows 10 been installed? I only ask as there have been several updates addressing a few issues and just wondered if you have these yet..

I have had it installed a week

Another problem I keep having is Windows File Explorer saying 'Working on it" when I try to look at a hard drive or folder!
It's SO frustrating!
Every other version of windows, 'my computer' has been instant.. but this file explorer keeps getting stuck on 'working on it'

The more you use the machine the faster it should get as stuff like superfetch kicks in. Try running something like Ccleaner as well as this can often help.
CCleaner - Download
