Will check if it happens again.

Have disabled a couple more things from the startup section of task manager.

Have followed advice on here and done #1 and #2 - http://www.deskdecode.com/antimalware-service-exec...
and changed some of the Windows Defender settings.



Been looking at PC's at CCL. Hopefully I will be a lot closer to buying by next month.
Thinking something like this.

Do you shut down the machine rather than put it into sleep mode?

There is a file used for putting a pc into sleep that retains the settings, so if it's been on a while and not shut down it has to restore from this file which is several GB and may be part of the issue

I'd suggest trying a shut down rather than sleep for a few days and see if this improves things
