Dell Inspiron 5559
My laptop was 7 years old. It was taking long time to turn on and sometimes very slow to operate. May I know is this a known issue and how to resolve this issue?

It's probably normal with age, but if you have a mechanical hard drive, which it looks like from the laptop model, it could be starting to fail, as a decent amount of hard drives die in ~5 years. If you notice any unusual sounds coming from your drive, like scratching or catching, that could be a sign.
If it is just slow with normal usage, just do a few quick things like running the disk cleaner or drive defragmenting software built into windows.
hope it helps
