Was trying to play a game that ran normally a few months ago but now it‘s being displayed at 5 frames per second or so and lagging the whole time.
YouTube is very slow too, my browser often freezes (it always does when I use YouTube).

My internal storage is almost full, could it be that? I would transfer some files to an external storage device if I had one but unfortunately I don‘t. Getting rid of cookies, temporary internet files, history etc. only helps temporarily. Deleting large files (pics, videos) also doesn‘t seem to help much. There is no virus or malware on my laptop. Drivers are up-to-date too.

Any idea? Advice?

If u use harddrive rope
Of course I do. I don‘t have an external disk drive. I don‘t think it’s a hardware issue, everything works fine but just too slowly. It has gradually become slower as my disk drive became fuller

When an hdd is full it becomes slowly bcuz its mechanical and has to search through more shit

It's offtopic, idiot. You can ask whatever the fuck here.
shut up retard, he said to go to a tech support forum because he'd obviously get better answers there than a forum around looks

Maybe too many background processes running?
 
Bought it two years ago but it was a refurbished device
So not too old, go on task manager and see if there’s any random processes running that are taking a lot of CPU
 
its heating up retard

You shut up, you utter dogshit. People are even asking for financial or training advice on this forum, even though barely anyone here is expert on those manners.

nah, I‘m neither tab-hoarding nor do I use too many applications at once. When I check task manager, „QEMU machine emulators and tools“ uses up most of my CPU
