Windows 10 very slow to boot after backup
I backup every Sunday leaving TI to turn off when complete. Next time I start PC the desktop background shows but no icons appear. After a few minutes the taskbar appears and up to 17 minutes later the icons appear and I can use the PC. Any help very much appreciated.

Hi Steve,
It normally takes about a minute to boot. I recently upgraded from TI 2012 to TI 2020 and never had this problem before.
Thanks for your reply.

Tony, the 2012 to 2020 upgrade is a big gap. If you installed ATI 2020 over the prior installation, that could easily introduce some incompatibility with services/drivers. To quote from Acronis KB:
In case you are upgrading from an earlier version of Acronis True Image: If your current version of Acronis True Image is Acronis True Image 2019 or Acronis True Image 2018, the new version will simply update it; there is no need to remove the old version and reinstall the software. If your current version is older, we recommend that you remove the current version before installing Acronis True Image 2020.
Even if you uninstalled ATI 2012 first, there could still be some residue. It might be best to uninstall ATI 2020 and then use the Acronis Cleanup utility to remove all traces of the prior application before reinstalling ATI 2020.

Tony, I just read about Microsoft's Windows 10 update KB4532695 which has caused problems for some, including slow boot issues. Any chance you had it installed the other day? If so, see if you can uninstall that update.

Definitely a possibility. I suspect it is behind problems I am having with one of my PCs - almost BSOD, everything but the blue screen, it just jams and stops working.

It would be worth uninstalling KB4532695 and see if it fixes the problem.

I have KB4532695 installed with no obvious issues that I am aware of? The link shows it was made available on Jan 28th but wasn't installed on my computer till Feb 1st.

Came across webpage: Windows 10 KB4532695 causes BSOD error for some users that mentions slow boot as one symptom.
