I’ve noticed lately that my Windows 10 PC takes ages to start up, and it’s really frustrating, especially when I’m in a hurry. I don’t want to install any third-party applications to manage startup programs or optimize the boot process. Is there a built-in way in Windows to speed up the startup?

I’ve already checked Task Manager to disable unnecessary startup items, but I feel like there might be other settings or tricks that can help. Maybe something with the system configuration or tweaks in the BIOS related to fast boot? Also, is enabling Fast Startup from power options actually beneficial, or does it cause more problems down the line?

Any advice from people who manage to keep their Windows startup times short using only native Windows features would be really appreciated. I prefer sticking with what Windows offers natively to avoid extra software clutter. Thanks!
