My husband and I picked out a laptop for my father for his birthday a month ago. It has 6 gbs for RAM And I think 700 gbs or 1 tbs of storage. Come to find out it has always ran slow. Slower than my 8 year old pink laptop he had been using. It is almost completely clean.
Added (1). No pictures, files, programs, or videos are on it yet. Just the WebRoot virus protection the Geek Squad installed (and there's no viruses). Disk drive is at 99%. Can someone tell by pictures from the task manager what could be the problem? Startup has few items to."

A quick google of it shows that is common problem to:/ I'm not sure how to get the update to go through though
