This week I was prompted that Windows would end their support for my version of windows and that I had to install 20H2. I found it odd that some people already had that update since way before, but I didn't pay much mind. I did so, and it took forever, after it was done, my computer became quite slow. I saw I still had a couple of updates remaining, so I thought that might help. It did not. I shouldn't have installed this update. I have a Legion Lenovo gaming laptop, y520, which should support heavy games, and barely more than a year old, but now it's slower than my 10 year old Win7 pc. I don't even play games most of the time, if anything DCUO or Gmod, both pretty old games. But my computer now is super slow, and it struggles running something as simple as chrome or Opera. And not even fast tabs. What do I do to go back to my normal speed? Please help this is unbearable. It's almost as if I had a 2gb ram.

Hello @Charles1810,
Suggest you to run System File Checker scan:
1. Search for 'command prompt' using Cortana or Windows Search.
2. From results, right click on Command Prompt and select Run as administrator.
3. Type sfc /scannow command and press Enter key.
4. Let the command complete and then reboot the machine.
If issue still persists, perform clean boot:
