Win 10 Very Slow Boot - Pre Session Init Process Lasts 8 Minutes

1

My HP Laptop usually boots in less than 2 minutes. Lately is it taking between 8 to 10 minutes to boot. I have already updated the BIOS and all the latest drivers I could find. I ran the Microsoft performance analyzer and I can clearly see the system hangs on the very first process, Pre Session Init. The CPU goes to 100% and this lasts for about 8 minutes. Once it gets past this process, all drivers and programs load in less than a minute and I get a sign on screen.

I also ran The HP built in UEFI hardware diagnostics on every hardware components pass all the tests.

System Specs:

Win 10 Pro
Intel i7-7700HQ 2.8GHz
16GB Samsung 2400 RAM
NVidia GTX 150
Intel HD Graphics 630
Realtek H Audio
latest Bios / Drivers. Windows Updates

I just added an image that shows the kernel is trying to access a drive. I think. How do i figure out which drive that is? – Sammy – 2018-02-18T01:29:32.480

share the ETL so that I can analyze it for you. – magicandre1981 – 2018-02-18T19:28:13.207

Magic, I really appreciate your help on this. I have bee reading that the ETL files contain personally identifying and security information. Is it safe to post it on an open bulletin board? – Sammy – 2018-02-20T05:00:59.507

I only see the name, but no content of the files. I've created a file request in Dropbox where you can upload the zipped ETL (to reduce file size to up- and download). Here I only see the files.
