It didn&#8217;t work very well when I first got it, but then had its good times. In mid December it went from working like a top to barely at all. Yet, I couldn&#8217;t forsake it &#8211; what to do?<\/p>\n<p>I read that, with Windows 10, you can restart the computer while pressing Shift, then get some troubleshooting options. With apprehension I did so.<\/p>\n<p>This isn&#8217;t an exact recall, but I remember perhaps a troubleshooting menu that eventually offered to re-install Windows 10. I took the option to keep my files. Next it offered to reinstall Windows 10 from online or from the the computer itself. I tried to do it from online &#8211; no luck. Next I tried to reload from this computer itself, which worked. It took nearly the whole day &#8211; I would check it every hour or so to see its progress.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes it didn&#8217;t give fresh news, but after many hours of seeming frozen, sometimes seeming to do something, or restarting, the computer woke up. Since then it&#8217;s worked as well as ever, maybe even better.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve more to say about this and will follow up.
