No, it won't. It's what you add to your software apps and what you run that affects your performance/speed. Bear in mind that Windows is loading your machine with it's updates, telemetry, etc. that has a huge affect on it. That's why after a few years, users will often clean it up with reinstalling Windows. Full system recovery. Personally, I install Linux Mint to avoid all of that aggravation. I dual boot, keeping Windows for one year until the warranty is up on the machine; then I delete Windows for the space.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.MStan's answer is a good one, but he/she fails to point out the obvious, and not-so-obvious: 1) Installing Mint is suggested. Great idea, except...do you know how Mint works, how it is like, and unlike, Windows? If not, are you ready to learn, especially if no one you know is familiar with it? 2) Dual booting has its own issues and problems, and again, a) adds to your learning curve; b) creates the additional problem that you will now have half as much drive storage space as you started with.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Thank you for the question. Converting from S Mode should not affect speed or performance. However, you should be certain that you've enabled Windows Defender or availed yourself of the free 30-day trial of McAfee Live Safe (or other anti-virus) to be sure that your system is secure.
