Solution by Maple

Time used: 0.003 (sec). Leaf size: 20

dsolve(x^3*diff(y(x),x$3)+x^2*diff(y(x),x$2)-2*x*diff(y(x),x)+2*y(x)=0,y(x), singsol=all)
 
\[ y = \frac {x^{3} c_2 +c_1 \,x^{2}+c_3}{x} \]

Solution by Mathematica

Time used: 0.005 (sec). Leaf size: 22

DSolve[x^3*D[y[x],{x,3}]+x^2*D[y[x],{x,2}]-2*x*D[y[x],x]+2*y[x]==0,y[x],x,IncludeSingularSolutions -> True]
 
\[ y(x)\to c_3 x^2+c_2 x+\frac {c_1}{x} \]
