Critical elements identified
It is recommended (if possible) to reset the modified system settings to default.
If this is no longer possible, you can reinstall Windows properly.
Here are the details of the identified bad practices:
System modifications :
- The system task MaintenanceDisabled has been disabled.
This task is necessary to maintain the system, both software and hardware.
It cleans temporary files, improves the lifespan and performance of SSDs, etc..
There is absolutely no reason to disable it. It is even totally counterproductive, do not do this.
If you want to know more, you can watch this video.
- The registry key LargeSystemCache has been modified.
This registry key is simply not used by Windows today.
In fact, this registry key was used by Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, but is no longer used since then.
Avoid following "optimization" tutorials that advise random things.
Link to the official Microsoft documentation regarding this registry key: available here.
- The registry key DefaultTTL has been modified.
The software TCP Optimizer was probably used.
This registry key allows modifying the time-to-live (TTL) of IP packets.
In this case, the value has been decreased compared to the default value.
This can cause issues while browsing the internet, as packets may be lost.
This modification does not improve ping or internet speed. It is useless.
- The registry key SvchostSplitThresholdInKB has been modified.
System services are now grouped together instead of being separated.
It is not recommended to change the default behavior as it can impact system stability in some cases (if a service crashes, it can affect other services in the same group, potentially causing a blue screen CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED or SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION).
Software / tools not recommended :
- The optimization software CCleaner claims to improve performance.
It modifies Windows settings, "cleans" the registry, deletes files, etc.
Depending on the options used in such software, they can create problems.
For registry cleaning, it is a myth; the registry does not need to be cleaned.
If they have a paid version, their goal is to make you buy it.
They are not actually useful, and you can simply uninstall these programs.
You can watch this video to learn more about best practices.
What to do about these bad practices? :
- Given the modifications and installations made to your Windows installation, it is highly recommended to reinstall Windows properly.
This will allow you to start with a clean, stable base, without the risk of issues.
A clean installation of Windows, with the correct drivers and settings, is sufficient to have a performant and stable system.
Everything else is just false promises, bad practices, and increases the risk of problems without any performance gain.
Windows is not really an operating system meant to be tinkered with.
You can watch this tutorial, which explains how to reinstall Windows properly.

Problems identified
The maximum temperature (86°C) seems to negatively impact the laptop's processor performance.
Most laptops are unfortunately poorly ventilated and tend to overheat depending on usage.
The components are in a confined space and the cooling is often much less effective than on a desktop PC.
Sometimes there is not much to do because it is "normal", the manufacturer made this choice.
For comparison, this processor in other "quick" diagnostics reaches 83°C on average.
However, if you think the temperature is too high and you believe you can improve it, here are some tips:
- You can elevate the back of the laptop to improve air circulation.
Initially, you can use a book or any object.
If this is effective, you can buy a stand.
No need for an expensive one, no need for one with a fan, the elevation is what matters.
Example stand 1, Example stand 2
- You can also clean the laptop's fans if it hasn't been done in a long time.
Some laptops are more or less easy to open.
Generally, those with a large bottom cover that can be removed are easier to open.
For this, you can watch a tutorial online (search for example "LENOVO ThinkPad P14s Gen 5 AMD 21ME000RFR + disassembly" on the internet).
Then open it and remove the fans to clean them. Also clean the air vents.
- If you have the skills, you can also change the thermal paste of the processor.
This can be a bit more complicated than dusting. But if the laptop is a few years old without maintenance, it can help.
If you have doubts, do not hesitate to ask for help from a competent person.
To do this, search for "Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows" in the Windows search bar.
Click on the "Advanced" tab, then click on "Change" in the "Virtual Memory" section.
Check "Automatically manage paging file size for all drives", then click "Ok".
Finally, restart your computer.

Boot mode >Boot modeBoot mode of the computer:
- Legacy (old mode)
- UEFI (recent mode)UEFI
TPM >TPMThe TPM is a component (physical module on the motherboard or emulated by the processor) that allows secure storage of information.
Specifically, it can store encryption keys, certificates, biometric data, etc.
For example, it is used to encrypt storage with BitLocker or unlock the computer with Windows Hello.
Some anti-cheat software for video games can also use it to confirm the integrity of the game and the system.Active
Secure Boot >Secure BootThis is a security option available in the BIOS.
Secure Boot ensures that the computer boots only with a verified operating system.
This setting may be required by some game anti-cheats (Valorant, FIFA).Inactive
Boot duration >Boot durationBoot duration is the time elapsed between pressing the power button and the motherboard returning POST OK (successful hardware check).
This can be useful for identifying a slow boot issue.
(long memory training in DDR5, for example).
A boot duration of around ten seconds is normal.
Note that this period occurs before Windows starts.
Applications that launch at Windows startup do not affect this duration.8s

Fast startup >Fast startupWindows Fast startup allows older computers to boot faster.
Sometimes this mode (enabled by default) can be the source of issues such as LEDs staying on, or crashes at startup with incompatible drivers.Inactive
Uptime >UptimeUptime is the time elapsed since the last Windows startup.
This information can be useful to determine how long it has been since Windows was last restarted.
Note that if Fast Startup is enabled in Windows settings, shutting down the computer will actually put it into a hibernation state.
Therefore, Windows only fully shuts down during a restart.
(by clicking on restart and not on shutdown)
As a result, you may sometimes observe high uptimes of several days, even if the computer is regularly shut down and turned on.
However, if Fast Startup is disabled, the computer will fully shut down during shutdown, and the uptime will be reset with each startup.1d 2h
VBS >VBSVirtualization-Based Security (VBS) is a security feature in Windows.
Its purpose is to protect certain parts of Windows by isolating them from the rest. It may be enabled by default on compatible Windows 11 installations.
It can also be activated if core integrity in Windows Defender is enabled, when using WSL2, or other virtual machine-related features.
However, this feature may slightly reduce performance when enabled.
This option only protects against certain complex vulnerabilities. It will not protect you from a cryptocurrency miner or password theft, etc.
Microsoft advises gamers, if they wish, to disable this option. (More information)Active
Antivirus >AntivirusCurrently active antivirus on your computer.
Ideally, it is better to use something like Windows Defender, which is relatively effective and already integrated by default in Windows, or use a third-party antivirus of your choice.
However, it is advisable to avoid less recommended antiviruses like Avast, Norton, McAfee, Iobit, etc., which are known for collecting your personal data rather than protecting you.Antimalware Bitdefender Endpoint Security Tools
