Every Windows user wants their computer to boot quickly. Windows OS tends to slow down the booting process if more apps or desktop are installed into the system. Each time you boot your computer, the startup process slows down. To overcome this issue, Windows 10 offers a startup application manager that applies to any Windows user. It also shows which programs are slowing down during the startup process.

In this guide, we will take you through the steps of making Windows 10 boot faster. Here are two methods that you can follow to speed up Windows 10 at startup:

Using the Startup Manager

Startup manager is found in the Task Manager of Windows. You can change startup apps that are affecting Windows 10’s boot speed.

  1. To open ‘Task Manager,’ right-click the taskbar and select Task Manager. You can also press Ctrl + Shift + Escape keys at once to open ‘Task Manager’ directly, or Ctrl+ Alt + Delete and click ‘Task Manager.’
  2. If Task Manager opens with a programs list then you have to click on ‘More details’ otherwise, find “Startup” tab.
  3. In the “Startup” tab you’ll find all the programs that are affecting startup speed. Click on any of these programs you want to disable by right clicking it and click ‘Disable.’
  4. Once you’ve done the process of disabling programs, your Windows 10 is ready to boot faster.

It will change the startup time of the operating system, and hopefully, your system will boot faster.

Enabling fast Startup

Another method of booting Windows 10 faster is by enabling a fast Startup with the power settings.

  1. Go to ‘Start’ menu and click on ‘Settings’ then click on ‘Systems.’ Then click on ‘Power & sleep.’ 
  2. Click on ‘Additional power settings’ on the top right-hand corner.
  3. Open it and click on ‘Choose what the power buttons do’ and you will see ‘Define Power Buttons and Turn on Password Protection.’
  4. Click on ‘Change settings that are currently unavailable’ (indicated in blue).
  5. Under ‘Shutdown Settings’ enable ‘Fast Startup for Windows 10’. Then tick the button for ‘Turn on Fast Startup’ box and click ‘Save.’
  6. Your startups are ready to boost faster.

These were two simple methods of booting your Windows 10 faster. If you have any issues regarding this, feel free to drop a comment. Do let us know if you know another method of booting Windows 10 faster.

How to choose the default user account to log in to Windows 10

The Microsoft operating system allows you to create a user account so that each person using the same computer has their own account. These accounts can be of different types depending on the permissions that we want them to have, being able to be an administrator account or a standard account. Anyway, when starting the computer, we will see that by default one of the accounts selected to log in to the system appears, although from the Windows 10 login screen it is possible to choose, manually, the account with the one we want to log in to the system. Next, we will show how to select the user account that we want to be selected by default when you log in to Windows 10. On the login page, we see how in the lower left part a list appears with each and every one of the users accounts available in our system.
