The Hosts file in Windows 10/8/7, is used to map host names to IP addresses. This Hosts file is located deep down in the Windows folder. It is a plain text file, and the size of the original default Hosts file is around 824 bytes.
It will effect the boot time only if it's hijacked.
The Hosts file in Windows is located at the following location:
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
It will effect the boot time only if it's hijacked.
