Maxwell was the early threat for the home side as he had a shot blocked inside seven minutes.
Sure enough, it was the left-back who opened the scoring on 17 after being teed up by Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
Troyes responded with a few attacks, with the best chance being put wide on 34 minutes by Jean Christophe Bahebeck.
It was far from dominant from PSG and Bahebeck could have levelled again, this time forcing a save from Salvatore Sirigu.
In the second half PSG made Troyes pay for their profligacy as Matuidi made it 2-0 on 63 minutes, again from an assist by Ibrahimovic. Then Ibrahimovic got a goal of his own, latching on to Nene's pass to finish well.
The Swedish star doubled his tally in the closing stages after a fine assist from Ezequiel Lavezzi.
