I'm experiencing significant slowdowns on my PC lately. It feels like the overall system performance is degraded, and I've noticed it particularly when certain applications are running. The machine is noticeably sluggish, taking longer to load programs, and multitasking isn't as smooth as it used to be. I suspect some of the installed software might be the root cause, but I haven't been able to pinpoint exactly which ones. Could we investigate what's causing these performance issues?
