Windows says “Getting Windows Ready” every time?

Every single time I turn it on it does Getting windows ready for 5 minutes. I do turn it on everyday, not like once a year, but recently its started saying this whenever I turn it on. Why?

    there was a LARGE monthly update to Windows last week or so, took like 1.5 HOURS to load.  Maybe leave it on some night & let it think ????

    Windows 10 is doing updates.   Let it run for at least an hour and see if it comes out of update mode.

    If it is stuck, you may have to do a clean install.
