Slow startup, SFC question
With SSD, my Lenovo has usually started up super fast. But recently I have had problems. I get to the log-in screen quickly, but once desktop comes up, things slow down:
- it is taking longer for wifi to connect
- once connected, nothing works for quite a long time - sometimes over 5 min.
- Hitting Ctrl/Alt/DEl does nothing - sometimes later screen does come up, but too late to see what might be running
- Sometimes have to shut down using ON button or pulling battery.
- Eventually after a slow start, thing get back to normal.
I eliminated some startup items. Googledrive sync?(2 entries), Skype and something that just said default
Seems better. I always had Skype in there. Recently Google said to upgrade Googledrive. Don't know what default is but after deleting it, it just comes back. It is in HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run and there is just blank line.
That is where I am.
Decided to run SFC /verifyonly - Received this message:
Tried to access that log but get message: Access denied! How do I overcome that? I was able to run SFC with administrator rights, but not read the log? Tried opening it from cmd with admin rights - still no luck.Verification 100% complete.

Decided to run SFC /Scannow
