Quick Fix Guide 08 Slow computer

Start here

The computer is suddenly slow.

A slow computer is not always a dying computer. First we check whether something is stuck, updating, or quietly asking for attention.

Likely cause

Too many apps are open, the computer needs a restart, storage is nearly full, or an update is waiting.

Restart, close extras, then update.

First things to try.

  1. 01

    Save your work, then restart the computer.

  2. 02

    Close apps you are not using, especially ones that open at the top of the screen or near the clock.
