Thank you for posting in the HP Support Community, @sarika31 

Please, follow the steps below, they may take a while to complete. I hope your system performance is improved eventually.

Ensure your Windows 10 is updated

Click on the Start button -> Go to Settings -> Updates & Security

Ensure that there are no updates running or pending installation

Restart your device the correct way

Please, check this article and restart it >> https://www.digitalcitizen.life/7-ways-shut-down-or-restart-windows-10-pc-or-device

Back to Windows:

1. Optimize

- de-fragment your Hard Disk Drive (if you have hard disk drive) > https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/8933-optimize-defrag-drives-windows-10-a.html

- run Disk Clean Up - cleanmgr.exe > https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/3012-disk-cleanup-open-use-windows-10-a.html

2. Remove unneeded and temporary files.
Download and run BleachBit with the extra options checked. Here are instructions

3. Scan your PC for threats, viruses, malware...

3.1.... Run the free ESET Online Scanner >> http://download.eset.com/special/eos/esetonlinescanner_enu.exe

Scan your PC for viruses, threats and unwanted/unsafe applications - remove if anything found.

3.2.... Run AdwCleaner >>https://www.malwarebytes.com/adwcleaner/

Let me know in details if they found something and what it was....

4. Uninstall any programs you definitely do not use but you think might be a bit high on resources. You can uninstall them from Control Panel > Programs and features

5. Give me information about your PC

Download and run the free Speccy  > http://www.piriform.com/speccy

Install and run the app

When it is ready, click on File > Save a snapshot

A file with .speccy extension will be generated. Please, upload it somewhere (e.g. in your Google Drive, Dropbox, ICloud or OneDrive storage) and give me URL to download/see
