Dual boot with Ubuntu. Windows 10 runs extremely slow

Hey guys just wondering if anyone has any ideas on how I could go about fixing this?

I have a laptop with an I7 CPU, 32GB RAM, 500GB SSD, however when I run Windows 10 on my dual boot it runs significantly slow. I pull seperate windows around the screen and there is significant lag, even when resizing..When checking the task manager, nothing is above 5% CPU.

Now when I boot to Ubuntu it runs very fast, no problems.

Could this be related to graphics card drivers? I have a NVIDIA graphics card, and installed via their website, whether or not that means much.

How would I go about easily diagnosing this issue?

Thanks for the help!
How much RAM does your Ubuntu allocate from your laptop?

I've seen complaints about this before, and it usually ends up due to the memory/hardware allocation between the two OS'.
I would suggest booting Windows 10 in safe mode and seeing if your experiencing the same lag you mention.
Hey thanks guys, I fixed this because my computer was at 3% and not charging, so windows throttled my performance.
