My laptop taking too much time once its gone to sleep mode. Even after pressing the keyboard buttons its reluctant to start up for many minutes. It almost taking 10 min to get the screen to on condition. Is it any hard drive issue.
Its just 1 year 5 months old .

Fast Startup is a hybrid form of hibernation/sleep who's intention is to make rebooting very fast. It has nothing to do whatsoever with the real-time performance of the machine.

Win10 has enabled a new hibernation process known as Fast Startup -- which is enabled BY DEFAULT. This is different from Fast Boot, which is a BIOS/UEFI option.
Fast Startup is supposed to dramatically speed up the booting process, but in some PCs, it actually slows it down or causes it to hang. It's also a new form of hibernation known as hybrid sleep -- and this causes battery drain to maintain the state of the PC while turned off. In some rare cases, it can also cause a laptop to overheat because the processor is still running and still generating heat, as this has been reported when the laptop was turned off and put inside a case.
Disabling Fast Startup might fix booting and shutdown problems.
There are two ways to disable FastStartup in Win10: (1) through the Control Panel, and (2) through an elevated command prompt.
Control Panel - Open Control Panel --> Power Options.
Select "Choose what the power buttons do"
Select "Change settings that are currently unavailable"
At the bottom of the Window, under Shutdown settings, uncheck the box regarding fast startup
Elevated command prompt - run the following command:
REG ADD "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Power" /V HiberbootEnabled /T REG_dWORD /D 0 /F
In both cases, reboot Windows.
NOW, Fast Startup is disabled.
See if that helps.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I had changed the setting and it worked now. Initial booting is little slow but that's okay.
As we removed the recommended option from windows is there any chance that this will reduce overall system performance speed.
