My wife has had a Windows 8 laptop (basic spec for internet and other light use) for just over a year.
Recently it appears a little sluggish and not as "sharp" as it was when it was new.
I have done some basic maintenance (used CCleaner, clear temp files & dedrag'd he disk) but it still seems a little slow when starting programs or with just general browsing. Further I have checked what programs run at startup which is not excessive and nothing there gives in too much concern.
The only change I have made to the laptop in the last few months was to add a separate account for another family member. There now being two accounts on the laptop. My wife connects the slowing running to this other account although I am unsure.
Is there anything else I can do to investigate this and return the laptop to smoother running?
Thank you
