Computer takes ages to open apps and files but actual processing speed is fine

Problem has been persisting for a while now. If I open apps or files, such as word documents, they take forever to open (from a minute to even 10 minutes). And I don't mean the file starts to open but takes a while to open completely, there's just no response.


If the computer was just taking its time in everything and having obvious difficulties processing things (like the fans going full throttle, frames dropping and the other usual signs), I can just pin it down to the CPU succumbing to age and move on with my life, but the real kicker is the computer shows no sign of actual struggle. No frame drops, no crashing, no slowing down in other apps, nothing. I can have five gazillion tabs open in Chrome and I'd be fine doing anything in the files ALREADY open.


Help would be greatly appreciated.
