I think i shoul start by saying i havent used my pc in a few months but even so downloading a game like rainbow six siege shouldnt be taking days to download i feel like everything slow and this has happened before where my games just stutter and glitch i dont know whats wrong with it because i still have tons of storage left so my download speed shouldnt be so slow same with my connection any help would be so grateful

Also if you need any info on what ram or cpu etc i have i can tell you but its been way to slow lately and use to have no problems

    Hello S.name, welcome to the Microsoft community, I'll be happy to help you today;

    I understand that the PC is slow after spending a few months without using it;

    First of all I need you to answer the questions below;

    What exactly is the model and manufacturer of your graphics card?

    What exactly is your PC model and manufacturer?

    If it's a desktop, what exactly is the model and manufacturer of the motherboard?

    Before answering the question I suggest you try the following;

    Check if you are updated with the latest version of Windows 10;

    Press Windows key + i and go to Update and Security;

    Click Check for updates and do ALL pending updates;

    Update apps from the store;

    Open Microsoft Store and click Library;

    Click Get Updates and wait until all apps are updated;

    run a disk cleanup;

    Press WIndows key + R and type: cleanmgr press Enter;

    Click Clean System Files and wait for the files to load;

    Select all items and click Ok to delete them;

    Do a clean boot;

    Press the keys: Ctrl+Shift+Esc to access the task manager;

    Click Startup and disable all programs that start with Windows;

    Restart the PC and check if the behavior persists;

    See you soon!
