Basically guy M14X R2 great machine but a problem has came about, when i start my laptop after log on it takes about 30 seconds to go from welcome to desktop and even then its still loading shortcuts and tray icons, i know its small but kinda annoying for a £900 laptop.
Booted up on safe mode and i went really fast, so im guessing its a start up program so i disabled some but can determine which other ones are safe to disable. Still slow boot with only these active would be grateful for some assistance.
Also all is up to date even bios.

Do you recall a rough date of when this started? You could try a system restore and see if that does it.

Disable all and then enable them 1 by one until you find the one that is causing the issue.
