not exactly bsod

[newbee_4]

but worrisome behavior. If I delete a (any size, 2mb - 2gb) file or folder.... it takes a full 1-2 minutes to show up in the recycle bin?

Some background -- this system started to fail about a year ago --

-----my thread from a year ago before C D E were replaced -- BSOD - file manipulations, dropbox hang? in case that is useful to see what was failing back then ------

eventually I sent it back, but without the drives which I kept at my house, to Velocity Micro. Got it back with new empty C , D, and E drives other than fresh install of Windows 10 Pro. Supposedly same mobo and everything else.




I restored C from a backup and everything was ok for several months, only within the past 2 weeks got around to re-loading everything onto D and E. Which -- I did from the supposedly troubled old drives, now in enclosures. Maybe that was a bad move?

So basically only within the last week did I finish downloading everything from the old failing D drive, to the replaced new D drive, and wondering if I propagated an error... but ... this happens even on desktop which should be just C drive right? unless a bad drive can mess up the file system elsewhere??



I literally deleted 1 kb file from the desktop and it is a full 2 minutes plus for it to show up in the Recycle Bin. Which is otherwise empty. Then when I delete, the Recycle Bin icon doesn't show it as gone, for 4 full minutes.



Everything else seems basically ok. It's just really weird that deleting a tiny file, right off the desktop, doesn't just get it straight into the recycle bin.




System is
Velocity Micro desktop
Windows 10 Pro which is what it came with v22H2 x64, Velocity Micro installed it
Hardware is around 4-5 years old except the drives which are in theory about a year old

Sorry I do not know what "age of OS installation" means, I have not reinstalled it but it should be fully updated. Velocity Micro reinstalled it onto the C drive so that would be around a year ago.
Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19060.1000.0 and OS build 19045.5131

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7800X CPU @ 3.50GHz 3.50 GHz

Video card NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070

Sorry I cannot figure out how to look up the motherboard and power supply but maybe the System Information I am attaching below will give the info needed?

I am not aware of using Driver Verifier-----> I will wait for your instructions before I try to run it.

I use Windows Defender plus Malwarebytes Premium. No proxy vpn etc but this doesnt seem to be a web issue. No Disk Image tools, no over or under clocking. Everything was normal until I reloaded the info onto D and E.

This isn't a BSOD problem, despite an earlier BSOD problem you had, and IMO it shouldn't be in this forum.

Was the OS ever re-installed, if so, when?

Do not run it. If installed, uninstall lit. These kinds of programs are notorious for causing more problems than they solve.

It might be on an invoice from Velocity Micro. The motherboard will show in Speccy. The PSU if not on an invoice will have to be found out by opening the PC case.

In the Admin Command prompt run this: rd /s /q C:\$Recycle.bin Then run for other drives changing drive letter. Always a good idea to back up Registry first.
