Have you tried doing a thorough scan with your Internet Security (anti-virus)? Also, if you do not have Malwarebytes on your computer download it and run a complete scan. You may be infected with a bunch of malware, spyware, and/or viruses. Download CCleaner and run it. Check your programs to see if there are any listed that you did not authorize to be downloaded on your computer. Be careful, and do NOT delete any that you aren't sure of. If this was my computer I would try cleaning it of these kinds of threats and unauthorized programs first. You didn't say how old it is, how much available physical memory you have, etc. Many things can cause a computer to slow. It just may be time to replace it.

If you have the software on a disk I would reformat the drive and reload the software. Backup any data to another drive as you will lose it.
