create an image

i have updated to windows 10 pro with all the updates. i seemed to be having issues at first when updating so i would have to manually shut the computer down. Now when i try to do things, it seems to take too long, things even spin. im thinking i should replace the hard drive. any thoughts? if i do create an image, is there a good, free app out there i could use? if i do image will i have the same problems because i will use the original drive to image?

These three comments cover methods and various comments on troubleshooting and solving the problem.  They do not provide full resolution as the questioner has not come back.
This is the best money I have ever spent. I cannot not tell you how many times these folks have saved my bacon. I learn so much from the contributors.
