    Hi,
    Yesterday, my booting times slowed down considerably and it takes ten minutes plus to boot into windows.
    Closing down and restarting also seems slower and programmes feel sluggish.

    I have run through the steps and attached the logs.

    I would be very grateful if you could rule out any malware/viruses as the issue.

    Many Thanks.

    Not seeing any malware, but you need to attach the MGLogs.ZIP

    Thanks Tim

    I thought I had, (MGLOGS.rar) For some reason it never appears on my desktop even though I set that as the destination. I had to retrieve it from search.
    Are you saying that a rar file is no good or that the file is no good?
    I'm running the programme again to see if that helps.

    I don't possess the ability to read rar files. Main reason we ask for a Zip extension.

    If you look at the MGLogs.zip - hijack this log...note all 04 items are start up programs.

    This is also seen in the runkeys log:

    You also are in need of emptying your temp files.

    So I would suggest you post in the software forum to control your start ups and remove your temp files if you are unsure about doing any of that.

    Otherwise, this is not a malware issue.

    Okay cool. Thanks Tim.
    Yes I know how to disable a startup and I will empty my temporary files.

    Thanks for your help. Much appreciated.
