You can hit control shift escape and organize by the processor usage and memory usage as well as disk usage to see what's bogging it down

If it doesn't look like foreign weird stuff you can go to the startup tab and set the things to not start with Windows, and hold window and hit R and type msconfig, hit ok or enter, go to services, check hide Microsoft services, and get rid of anything you don't especially want starting with your computer there also

If you do that and then go to task scheduler, just click start and type task and it should come up, delete all entries found there, it should work much better and if there's no virus or hardware problems or deeper windows issues it should work great at that point compared to now

If you have never made any improvements to your pc since you have owned it then my guess would be that it’s needs more RAM.
You could take it to your nearest PC technician store and get them to have a look at it for you.

That could be anything from age to a program.

@canusernamebemyusername @littlejenny3 You can download a free program that I have used for years called Speccy to run and list all the details of your computer so that you can answer these questions. You can also download a program called Ccleaner, again which I have used for years. to clean away junk that may be causing issues.

I highly recommend running this program

Also, you should run the Windows Defender scan, assuming you are on Windows.
