Before this, 6 ~ 10 minutes, after this less than a minute... I'm a developer and use the computer a lot.

Scheduled task "Collection of usage data for Windows" Category: Non-recommended scheduled task Main program: Windows SQM Consolidator Manufacturer: Microsoft Once you agree to take part in the "Windows program to improve user friendliness", a scheduled task is created that collects data about how you use your system. This data is then sent to Microsoft. Unfortunately, even if you say no to participation, the scheduled task is still created; it just does not do any data collection. Recommendation Is recommended that is cancelled this scheduled task. The system does not need it and it does not make sense to run it every time the system starts up. Solution As administrator, start the cmd.exe, type and press enter: schtasks /Change /TN "\Microsoft\Windows\Customer Experience Improvement Program\Consolidator" /DISABLE schtasks /Change /TN "\Microsoft\Windows\Customer Experience Improvement Program\KernelCeipTask" /DISABLE schtasks /Change /TN "\Microsoft\Windows\Customer Experience Improvement Program\UsbCeip" /DISABLE Overwrite the page file at shutdown At shutdown, Windows can overwrite the page file with zeroes to prevent unauthorized access to private information such as passwords. However, this process significantly adds to shutdown time. Recommendation Turn this option off if you have no urgent need for it. Overwriting the page file slows down shutdown and does not fully protect data stored on computer. For effective protection from unauthorized access, is recommended to enable encrypt of entire hard disk. Solution On regedit.exe, go to key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management on ClearPageFileAtShutdown, change the value from 1 to 0.
