Product: HP ProBook 450 G5
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
I just received and setup a brand new HP ProBook 450 5G (i5-8250U, 500GB HDD, 20G RAM) on 10/20/2018. The startup time is extremely slow (slower than my 7 year old PC running Windows 7). It takes a while to get to the login screen and then, once the fingure is swipped still time to get to the actual desktop (sometimes with a black screen in the process). Even after the desktop has been reached, there's significant drag.
What gives? What's causing this and how do fix it?
Thank you for any assistance you may have
