Surface Laptop 3 Started Running Slow
Hi:
This past Monday this Surface Laptop 3 starting running slow, delay when opening programs, etc.
Already tried:
Disabled Antivirus
Ran Windows Updates and rebooted but still running slow.
Rolled back Wi-Fi driver to earlier version but still running slow.
Used Surface Tool to update firmware but still running slow.
Other devices on same network are running normal/fast.
Reset machine to factory image but still running slow.
Task Manager shows CPU, memory and disk is normal, i.e. none of them running at 100%.
Any suggestions/ideas greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Bob H.

Since a few days I experienced that my Surface 3 Laptop was also running slow.
I just updated the Qualcomm Atheros Wireless Driver for Windows 11. (https://support.lenovo.com/lu/en/downloads/DS502501)
After updating everything opens much faster. Opening e webpage in my browser and downloading programs is now much faster.
