    I have to use Windows at work and by early afternoon if I’m not forced to reboot for an update I have to reboot because the machine has basically ground to a halt.

    Why does Windows slow down the longer it’s been booted?

      Something is wrong. My Windows machine at work will run smoothly for weeks, only rebooting for updates. Have you tried closing everything but explorer?

        The machine doesn’t belong to me. I’ve had this experience on other computers running Windows.

      It doesn’t, that seems to be just your device.

      Most likely some third party software that is causing it.
