Pages load extremely slow and stick, and nothing listed in my startup menu when I open task manager
Good morning, afternoon, evening all. I have an Acer - Aspire - Desktop XC - 704G, running Windows 10. The problem started a few months ago every time I booted up my computer and clicked on Google Chrome, Mozilla, or Internet Explorer, it seems like it takes an eternity for the page(s) to load (whereas before they would load very quickly). I have tried (and continue) antimalware programs, running my antivirus, I haven't downloaded anything new recently, I just don't understand. I have plenty of hard drive space. I'm out of my league on this now and my warranty expired, so I can't get professional help that way. I also tried checking my task manager for startup programs, which brings me to the next problem...it doesn't list anything. It's completely blank! What happened to all the startup programs that were there the last time I looked?
