Just got this computer, and hardly have anything running but the disc space is at 100%, 71% memory, and 22% CPU with only task manager running. The computer is super slow, like 2001 dial up slow. How do I fix this.

Also, the community Win10 Forums has the following suggestions:

In addition, I have found the utility Cleanmgr+ to have LOTS of options for removing Windows junk, including log files. I use it practically every day. You can get it from here:

Also, there is a freeware app known as Wise Disk Cleaner. I use it every day to get rid of junk files: https://www.wisecleaner.com/wise-disk-cleaner.html
