Are there any recent "updates" which could slow down my computer?
I had my system set up so that I would be informed of updates then I would elect to install those that I wanted too. Somehow this setting has been changed to automatically download and install updates. In recent weeks, I noticed that my computer has slowed down considerably.
I have a Sony Vaio, I bought October 2012. I don't keep a lot of photos or videos on my hard but drive transfer them to an external hard drive that is not connected to my laptop unless I use as external hard drive at this time so I don't know has nothing to do with the cause of my laptop is running slowly. My operating system is Windows 7. The version that is installed on my computer but I don't know how to check the version. I don't know what other information, you may need, but can tell you that I don't download a lot of things like my children and grandchildren do my hard drive is not all clogged with junk.
If you need more info about my system and can tell me how I would like to know what you need to know that I will be happy to provide this information in order to help find the reason of my system is so slow now.
Thanks in advance for any help I can get.

Hi Linda,.
Updates are additions to software that can help to prevent or fix problems, enhance the operation of your computer, or improve your computing experience. Important updates provide significant benefits, such as improved security and reliability.

I suggest to run the Troubleshooter of Performance and check if it helps.

Windows updates significantly slows down my computer
Whenever my computer is a windows update that it slow down my computer, I need to run a virus scan that helps a little but it still runs slowly takes about 5 to 10 minutes to restart.
If your antivirus software is nothing else than the windows Defender - you might want to experiment & uninstall it.
Visit the support site anti virus and find their methods of uninstalling... Many antivirus programs really need a separate download program to uninstall them successfully. When you see that windows Defender is working properly, it's a good indication that you probably have a successful uninstallation.
Maybe... then your computer might speed up you decide to reinstall the anti-virus program or not.

Is there any fix planned for the slow lingering and pervasive in LR6/cc?
LR6, Win7, 6 GB of ram
Is there any fix planned for the slow lingering and pervasive in LR6/cc? I disabled the GRU. I cleared the cache. My catalogs are updated to LR 5.7.1. Everything is slow. It doesn't matter what it is. Its takes twice as much time to do something. LR will freeze for 5 to 15 seconds at a time without apparent reason. The use cases are to go "Not responding" are numerous and vary widely. I check the CPU during these events Nn sensitive usage and its pretty much slowed down. I have check the disk usage and its also generally inactive.
I thought it might be VSCO plugins, but it's not. LR5.7.1 is always screaming fast while LR6 is an old slow cow.
Here is an example that I saw that is repeatable:
(1) start an import
(2) choose the photos from an SD card
3) click the + to add them to the catalog
4) appears to enter a catalog name
(5) start to type in the dialog box.
(6) after may entered 8 letters, LR goes "Not responding", 10 seconds(7) after LR starts responding again, emphasis on catalog name field has been lost
There is no reason for a freezing here. The CPU does nothing. The drive does nothing.
There are things like that in every sense.
Another example.
(1) develop the Mode
(2) select a photo
(3) left and right panels are hidden
(4) browse the side panel right of the mouse so that it will pop-out
5) LR freezes for 5 seconds
6( ) when the right panel opens, click on the number of exposure (0) and try to type in 1.25.
7( ) after after graduating 1,2, LR hangs for 10 seconds.
8( ) when LR answers once again, finishing by typing in the 5 other (1.25) and press to enter.
9( ) the image immediately illuminates as expected.
Yay! They have updated LRCC/6 today. The slowness and latency seem to have disappeared! Yay! I can get back to work!

Hello world
I have a photography website Toronto-photographers specialized Commercial product photography in the product, Food and Drink photography
I want to be mobile friendly. I made my website on Dreamweaver. Are there any tools I can easily convert this URL into something more mobile friendly? I am panicking because Google will soon make mandatory for web site to be mobile friendly for good SEO positions.
Thank you!
PS - I was just add my URL - why Adobe changes the link to the web site title tag?
It looks like that you created this site a long time ago, because all I see is that it is designed using old tables shaped. There is nothing wrong in the use of tables, but as you have already acknowledged that Google might start to penalize the people who still use old outdated technology!
In any case, to solve your problem, you can redesign your site this weekend using bootstrap information which is already available in the current edition of Dreamweaver or you can download the getbootstrap.com zip file to use in the DW 6. Something about bootstrap, there are many video tutorials on youtube, and I suggest to spend Friday watching those dear to you get started and trust you to know that it is quite simple for the redesign of your site from scratch. You already have the text and images, and now you just put them in the format 'bootstrap '!
The videos are:
https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=gqOEoUR5RHg>
http://www.newthinktank.com/2015/11/learn-bootstrap-one-video/>
https://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=3cYWiU_HsgM
There are other institutions and you just have to watch them to get used to begin.
Some people use Microsoft Visual Studio (Free Community Edition) to create MVC Web sites, using bootstrap / c# / Razor syntax and it is also something you should know. MVC stands for Model-View-Controller and MS has released a lot of videos on them as well. However, this is not necessary, but for the sake of interest I mention here just in case you have interest in web development and all that.
Good luck.
