It might be some kind of app running in the background that's slowing down
your system, but it really shouldn’t' be Defender ora ny of the Microsoft
programmes, which should work pretty smoothly together.
I have had big system slowdowns sometimes after a huge amount of disk
activity, but it happens maybe once every few months or less and a restart
always sets everything right.
The problem you are experiencing must be specific to your system.
Perhaps if you give some stats about the machine, someone might have a
comment.
Maybe also go into task manager and take a look at startup items; see if
you can get rid of anything.
Maybe the manufacturer put some bloatware on the system that is messing
with it.

Subject: [nvda] Problems With NVDA and Windows10

Hello:
I've come to discover since I upgraded my laptop from windows7 to 10, that
the computer has not been responding to commands instantly.
When I launch a program or a website, it takes a very long time for it to
start. Even when I am typing it sometimes takes some seconds for the
characters to appear.
I don't know if this is a problem with the NVDA screen reader or it is a
problem with the operating system windows10.
I don't understand why this is happening. I didn't have this problem at any
time with windows7 or even XP.
I suspected at a time that the various security installations were causing
the problem, and I disabled windows defender. But this has still not solved
the problem.
So, what can I do. Has anyone had this problem before?
Thanking you in advance for your help in this regard.
Ibrahim.
