Download this VBS Script; save to Desktop - https://www.sysnative.com/apps/bootspeed.vbs Close ALL windows. 2x-click on the bootspeed.vbs file. Answer YES or OK (I forget which comes up). Your system will then restart. You'll see the same screen again - click on YES or OK. Another screen will appear with your boot time in seconds. What was the reading?

Well. . . What did the VBS script show as boot-up time? I would expect the system to take an extra few seconds if it did not shut down properly - but not much. Mine was 177 seconds (2.95 minutes) -- that shocked me as I thought a core i7 should do better! Hewlett-Packard ENVY TS 17 Notebook PC Intel core i7 Intel64 Family 6 Model 60 Stepping 3 GenuineIntel ~2401 Mhz 4 cores 8 threads (hyper-threading) 16 GB RAM 1 TB SATA Windows 8.1 x64 (to be upgraded to W10 soon) Click to expand... Furthermore, on the shut-down side of things, the system should be able to shut down (if so ordered to do so) within 60 seconds. That is what Microsoft set as the slowest possible time for a normal shut-down via SETTINGS -> POWER -> SHUT DOWN Regards. . . jcgriff2 p.s. Please run the VBS Shut-down Script if you have not already done so. Thank you.

Yours is just a little faster than mine. There is nothing wrong with that boot time. It would definitely take longer to boot after a crash because the system did not shut down cleanly and items like the registry have to be reconstructed. Last edited: Aug 15, 2017
