How to clean and speed up a slow Windows computer entirely
By Rene | 18/Sep/2024
Do you have to accept the fact that Windows computer slows down over time? If you do not want to break the bank to buy new ones every time it appears degraded performance, then you have to realize that you are the culprit who makes the computer slow. You must have many excuses to refuse to wait for a few seconds before the computer starting up totally, not mention to spend a few minutes to have daily or weekly maintenance on the computer clean up.
Therefore, if you want to revert the computer’s speed to how it was when you first bought, you have to spend some time or even some money on cleaning and speeding up computer entirely. Though there are many reasons for a computer acting jerk, you can follow the steps below to clean and speed up the computer.
First of all, make sure that no malware running on your system which can slow it down.
To fix this problem, you would better run Windows Defender or other reliable third-party antivirus or anti-malware software.
Clean Up Junk Files and Programs
Erasing the unnecessary junk files in the system, the registry and other programs will help a lot in speeding up the computer. Cleaning this kind of dump files can reduce unnecessary load on the hard ware, which takes away system resources that we can use elsewhere.
Removing unwanted and old programs is essential, too. These less frequently used software not only take up hard drive space but also secretly run in the background and thus robbing away the processor working capacity.
Also considering the big and temporary files you simply don’t use. The more hard drive free space available, the better the performance. Because the drive capacity can’t be pushed to its limits again and again.
All these junks can be easily deleted to clean out for speeding up computers in the Neptune SystemCare Ultimate, which is an advanced computer optimization utility, sweeping off all the junks within one click.
Clean and organize hard drive
Defragmenting the hardware is consolidating all the empty spaces that are created in the file system structure when you install and remove files. These empty spaces make your hard drive take longer to think, which in turn causes files, folders, and programs to open slowly. Thus, to defrag the hard drive will clean out more space for other valuable resources.
Open Neptune SystemCare Ultimate and head to System Tuneup tab to choose Disk Defrag. Scan and Defrag will help to speed up opening files. Be careful that the computer will restart after the defragment.
Real time clean the programs and services in the background
Our system could be overheating and slow down with too many programs and services running in the background when the CPU speed would reduce to avoid becoming damaged by the excess heat. Therefore, checking the CPU resources and GPU temperature is inevitable.
You can do it easily with System Monitor in Neptune SystemCare Ultimate,
Clean unnecessary startup items
Disabling unnecessary startup items results in both a faster start-up and a more responsive computer, as these applications not running continuously means more RAM and CPU will be available for the operations you perform on the computer.
It is easy to modify with Neptune SystemCare Ultimate, too. Under System Tuneup tab and choose Startup Manager.
You can see that cleaning and speeding up computer entirely seems not so hard. Just a few clicks can save you more time and better computer experience.
