MSC. Exactly like that, and press Enter. This opens your Windows services panel. Whoa, there are like a hundred things in here. How do I find the right one? Scroll down and look for optimized drives. It manages how your drive handles data movement. Found it! It says the startup type is manual. Is that bad? That is exactly why your transfers are crawling. Double-click it and change the startup type to automatic. Done. Should I click start, too? Yes. Click start, then hit OK. Windows will now keep this service running, so your drives stay optimized. OK, let me try copying that same file again. Holy crap, Stewie, it is way faster! Because your drive is no longer working blindly. This is the kind of thing Windows should enable by default. So, basically Windows was holding back my PC this whole time and I never knew? Precisely. Save this, share it with someone still waiting on a file transfer, and follow for more fixes like this."
