When Logging into a Windows Domain is SLOW. Occasionally, logging into a Windows domain can take a long time. We’re talking 5 to 15 minute intervals here, and it’s annoying as all get out. At this point, simply log out and log back in. Chances are that your 5-15 minute login time has now been reduced to under a minute. FIX: Windows 10 Slow Boot (Solved) Last updated on March 20th, 2018. The following problem is occurred on a SONY VAIO laptop, after installing the Windows 10 Falls Creators Update 1709: Windows 10 boot time and startup is extremely slow. Each Windows update causes a common slow boot problem after installing, and the slow boot and slow startup problems are very likely to happen in the upcoming updates the next year. Tip All the solutions in the below part are fully illustrated with pictures. Currently, my Windows 10 install (Pro edition, build 10586.29) is experiencing a problem with extremely slow logins (up to three minutes on the 'black screen of death' - cursor is visible, but absolutely nothing actually happens) after entering my login password. We found that the slow logons were caused by a printer driver that was being installed but which required user input, which obviously couldn't be provided because the user was not logged in yet. Try turning on Verbose Welcome Screen in GPO. This might show you where the PC is getting stuck.

2. Windows Login Welcome Slow

Pdf password unlocker. We are racking our brains trying to figure this problem out an are currently stuck!

Basically we are having issues with some users taking ages to log in in the mornings, some times up to 20 minutes, we have tried correcting this problem looking at a variety of methods, we have checked DNS (seems to be fine, although not my strongest point I will accept suggestions), checked network speed (seems fine), the users in question are not using roaming profiles and there are no policies pointing to unavailable mapped network drives.

This is now a major problem as so many users are complaining that they can make a cup of coffee before the computer logs on.

We had a similar issue where workstations were taking about 10 minutes to log in. However, if the network cable was unplugged and the PC rebooted then they logged in right away.

You may want to test the 'BufferPolicyReads' registry setting. This setting is enabled by default in Windows 7, but needs to be specified for Windows XP.

Key: HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftWindows NTCurrentVersionWinlogon

Value: BufferPolicyReads
Type: DWORD
Value: 1

To add to what others have posted, I've seen this sometimes when the client machines DNS are set to something other than an AD server (or internal DNS server), this is especially true if your local domain is using a .com or .net or something that is in the Public DNS domain.

Try netsh int ipv4 reset & netsh winsock reset & ipconfig /flushdns, this did it in my case

Currently, my Windows 10 install (Pro edition, build 10586.29) is experiencing a problem with extremely slow logins (up to three minutes on the 'black screen of death' -- cursor is visible, but absolutely nothing actually happens) after entering my login password. Additionally, the Windows Shell can take upwards of five minutes to load (items to display on my taskbar, shortcut icons to load, etc).

I've attempted to attach a debugger (through procmon) to my boot process, but I have yet been unable to find anything out of the ordinary, with the exception of about a three minute gap between two registry lookups:

All of this happens before atbroker and UserInit start (I think).

During this gap, many processes (Specifically NVIDIA and ELAN) launch, but none seem to contribute to a hang.

I have no idea about how to debug this, what's causing it, and (most importantly), how to fix it. Can someone please help me out?

Edit: I've noticed that this only happens when I first boot my computer. Any subsequent logons/logoffs work perfectly normally.

Edit 2: Upon doing a bit of log debugging, I noticed something in my boot logs:

This suggests something is wrong with Windows Defender (again). Now what?

Edit 3: Also, I'm using Razer Synapse because of my keyboard and mouse, and quite a few different people confirm that it actually does slow boot. Can that be remedied somehow (preferably without uninstalling Synapse)?

You should use xperf to troubleshoot slow logons.

1. install the WPT
2. logon to an admin account
3. open a cmd.exe and run this command:

xperf -on base+latency+dispatcher+NetworkTrace+Registry+FileIO -stackWalk CSwitch+ReadyThread+ThreadCreate+Profile -BufferSize 1024 -start UserTrace -on 'Microsoft-Windows-Shell-Core+Microsoft-Windows-Wininit+Microsoft-Windows-Folder Redirection+Microsoft-Windows-User Profiles Service+Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy+Microsoft-Windows-Winlogon+Microsoft-Windows-Security-Kerberos+Microsoft-Windows-User Profiles General+e5ba83f6-07d0-46b1-8bc7-7e669a1d31dc+63b530f8-29c9-4880-a5b4-b8179096e7b8+2f07e2ee-15db-40f1-90ef-9d7ba282188a' -BufferSize 1024 -MinBuffers 64 -MaxBuffers 128 -MaxFile 1024

4. Press CTRL+ALT+DEL and then Switch User.
5. Logon with the user account experiencing the slow user logon to reproduce the issue.
6. in the slow account, open a elevated/admin command prompt and run this:

xperf -stop -stop UserTrace -d merged.etl

7. open the merged.etl in WPA.exe, look in the Generic Events for events with matching Start/Stop Opcodes and look which Event has a long duration.

Windows Login Welcome Slow

If you need help, compress the merged.etl as 7z/RAR (to reduce the size) and share it (oneDrive, dropbox, google drive).
