My computer is running very slow; after running some diagnostics I got
this message:

"Drivers causing Windows to resume slowly: WUFRD.sys" located on
C:\Windows\system32\drivers

I know this file should not just be deleted. When I get home I'm going
to use the RESTORE option ( I did that yesterday without luck but I'll try
it again )and see if that takes care of the problem

Any other suggestions in case RESTORE doesn't work?

The WUDFRD.sys is a Windows system file that gets associated with some other programs.

Have you recently installed any programs?
Are you having any problems with any programs.

There was program installed in my computer with a date of 6/4/2010; I started
having problems with my computer a day or two later. I can't remember the name of it but I removed to see if that solved the problem but it didn't.

I did not install that program myself, I assumed it came with a Windows update.

If your spelling is correct...
WUFRD.sys is not a Windows file.
WUDFRD.sys mentioned by 123Runner is a Windows file.

WUFRD.sys seems to belong to Zune software. Do you have it installed?

No I have never used Zune or downloaded its software.

I did remove some additional software that I had previously installed (Roxio's
VHS to DVD software). It took about 1 hour and 20 minutes to remove the
software and of course it didn't solve the problem.

I'm going to try to run RESTORE again, this time running it from a CD.
If that doesn't work I'll have to install Windows again.
