Computer Taking Too Long to Start?  Here's The Fix!

I know all about computers being slow to start, or just hanging in mid-air when I'm trying to do something.  This article will help you fix that problem.  Read more . . . .

When the computer takes much longer to start than it used to, the problem is usually caused by too many programs trying to auto-start.  I suggest considering uninstalling any programs you don't really use.

You can use Windows Defender to prevent unnecessary programs from starting automatically.

Many things that prevent a computer from starting have nothing to do with Windows Vista.  It often takes even seasoned pros many hours to diagnose and repair startup problems.  But before you resort to the repair shop, here are some other things you can try.

Restore system files to an earlier time

If you can get the computer to start in Safe Mode, try restoring your files to an earlier time.  In Safe Mode, click the start button, type restore on the start menu.  Follow the onscreen instructions to restore system files from a date prior to when the problem began.  Choose the most recent date.  For example, if the problem started today, restore files from yesterday or the day before.

Hopefully your problem will be corrected.  If not, use the comment section below and let me know what your problem is.  Be specific, so I can answer you correctly.  If you have any comments or suggestions I would love to hear from you.  Use the comment section below.  Thank you for your time today.
