My Laptop is extremely slow!

I am having Dell Inspiron 15 5000 series i7 7th gen with 8GB ram, 2TB hard disk last month. But I found my laptop is working very slowly. If I open a Word or PDF it will take 10-15 seconds to load. Every application which I open has the same problem, (i:e) When the function is pressed it will take 5 seconds to pop up. Why is this happening? Can you give me a suggestion?

How can I do it???? This is the reason for the perfomace bottleneck??

The slowest component in that system is the hard drive -- replacing it with a solid state drive will remove that bottleneck.

Before doing that, are there any heavily resource-sapping programs loaded (such as McAfee Antivirus)?

When you see the problem  happen, open the task manager (CTRL-ALT-ESC) to see what's consuming the resources.
