Browser/Email :: Mail App So Slow?

Feb 10, 2016

When I upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10, I started using the built-in Windows 10 Mail app. It's got a nice user interface. However, I'm finding that it takes FOREVER to sync. Well... around 10 minutes. I have 3 Gmail accounts and one Time Warner Cable account. All IMAP based. Any other mail client I've used, including on my mobile phone syncs up in seconds.I'll probably go back to using Thunderbird (which syncs quickly) unless there's a solution to the performance issue.

Browser/Email :: Windows Live Mail Suddenly Very Slow To Change Between Email Folders

Oct 20, 2015

I have been using Windows Live Mail for years and have 3 email accounts synced in it. After some recent changes to my PC, the program is suddenly very slow to change between email folders. What I mean specifically is if I click on one inbox, and then click on my deleted folder, there is literally a 5 second delay before the view is switched to the new folder. This has never happened before, it normally take mere milliseconds to change between my email folders. Switching between any folders at all, even if they are empty, takes 5 seconds!!

As for the changes made to my pc, I recently was screwing around with my drive partitions and made a really stupid mistake. I accidentally created a new volume which took up my whole secondary HDD (not my OS drive, but where my emails are stored). Some quick google searching got me a free software that recovered my partitions and after a quick reboot my PC appeared to be working fine again. Except for Windows Live Mail... which when I opened had lost all my email accounts. I re-added them, and for some reason they started to download all my emails from the internet and wouldn't recognize the mail folders where all my emails are stored on my secondary hard drive.

It took over an hour to download all the emails again, which were stored in the default location on my OS drive. I normally keep them on a secondary HDD to save space on my OS SSD, so I was forced to delete all the emails on my secondary HDD where I normally keep them and then direct Windows Live Mail to move all the emails it had just downloaded to the location I just deleted my emails from.

So at the end of the day I made a really dumb mistake, fixed it, and then had to do this weird workaround solution to get my email storage working the way I am used to. All this screwing around now when I use my email it is super slow to switch between folders...

I have already tried doing a full defrag of the drive where my email is stored, as well as a repair of windows live essentials from the control panel. I have heard that addons can cause problems like this in WLM but until today I didn't even know WLM had addons. What I can do before I try reinstalling Windows Live Mail. If I do that I will have to re-download all my emails again...

Dec 23, 2015

I've recently done the Microsoft Windows 10 upgrade form Windows 7, Windows 7 was fine but since the upgrade was free I thought I might as well upgrade.Since I've upgraded IE is very slow on all web pages, sometimes if I'm doing banking where you have the drop down boxes for Password Indentification they can be really slow. I can't remember what version of IE I had before but now it's 11.0.26.

Browser/Email :: Mail App Not Automatically Syncing Email

Jan 24, 2016

The Mail app is no longer syncing my email automatically. I have to open the app and click the sync button manually for email to update.

I see the app no longer runs in the background as it did when I first upgraded to Windows 10.

And if not, is there an alternative mail client that you recommend that will run in the background and sync emails?

Browser/Email :: Upgrade - Browsing Slow

Dec 13, 2015

Upgraded my Windows machine to 10 last week. I didn't want to take any chances so I did a totally clean install. I haven't made any tweaks or installed any programs. My laptop is an ASUS dual core AMD with 4GB of memory and a 750GB hard drive.

When I use Microsoft Edge it takes 3 seconds to open the browser and then when I type a website address it takes 7 seconds to fully load. I installed Chrome and while it's faster, it's not by much.

I have another laptop running Windows 7 on the same network. It opens websites almost instantly. It does have better hardware - Intel i7, quad core, 8gb of ram, 500gb ssd. However, web browsing isn't a resource intensive activity so I would suspect hardware differences would not have a material impact.

Browser/Email :: Firefox Always Slow And Lagging

Oct 7, 2015

I am using Windows 10 Pro X64 official and Mozilla Firefox.

For some reason my Firefox browser is always lagging.

Chrome works fine though.

When I open a new tab, the browser starts lagging, when I open multiple tabs it's lagging a lot.

Click a link -> Start lagging.

Why is this happening? Had the same thing on Windows 7 but the lags seems more in Windows 10.

Each time i watch a video in Chrome the browser start to behave weird, if i am on the same tab as the video playback and i try to type a word to search or url in URL bar and press enter the browser's loading icon never stops spining and i must close that tab and create a new one and the browser becomes really slow .My theory is:

A) Internet Download Manager may cause the problem

B) Google Account Sync may slow down the browser ???

C) The Avast online security add-on/plugin browser may is causing the problem

Browser/Email :: YouTube Slow Connection Speed IE11?

Feb 10, 2016

I've been noticing a slower than normal connection/download speeds for youtube videos. All other file and video streaming sites and file downloads use my full bandwidth speed while youtube sometimes streams at half or less my full bandwidth speed. I use youtube's stats for nerds connection speed and task manager for my readings.

Things I've noticed with youtube:

1. The more youtube videos I watch the slower/lower the connection speed is for youtube videos. I don't have this problem with other sites.

2. Deleting the cookies for google.com and youtube.com along with the temporary internet files doesn't restore full connection speed.

3. A larger file cache is used when you select your quality manually vs auto with the same quality.

Things I have changed in windows:

1. Change Maximum Download Connections per Server Limit in Internet Explorer is set to 16 in group policy.

2. Limit reserved bandwidth is set to On and 0% in group policy.

3. Internet explorer data space to use is set to 1024MB.

Browser/Email :: Mozilla 41.0.1 Running Slow - Lots Of Disk Activity

Oct 13, 2015

After launching Mozilla hard disk activity seems to be permanently on, as if Mozilla where reindexing or something. It takes a long time (10-20 minutes) to stop and it makes browsing a very jerking experience. Of course I did a clean install to rule out some corrupted installation but no dice.

Launching Resource Monitor shows that all disk activity is being done by Mozilla FF and Windows Defender (Firefox being the first candidate).

Browser/Email :: How To See From Which Address Mail Was Sent

Jan 8, 2016

I got an email from someone I have several addresses for, with the Mail client showing just the name of the sender, not the address the mail was sent from. I want to reply to a specific address, but also to know which address the email came from in the first place. In Live Mail I could check the email details and get lots of info about the email, including what address it was sent from.
