Is Warframe slowing down my laptop?
Recently I downloaded Warframe. Since then I noticed my computer was doing poorly at multitasking. For example, downloading a WoT update and opening Armor Games in the Chrome Browser. I think Warframe might be slowing down my laptop because it seemed to handle multitasking much better before. The specs of my laptop can be found here. I used Steam to install Warframe on the Data D: hard drive. I installed it here because my Acer C: SSD was getting close to full. One of my friends suggested opening Task Manager and updating the priority of Steam so it would download faster, so I did. My question is this: Is Warframe slowing down my laptop? If so is there anything I can do about it?
