Hey everyone
Here's a list of a few steps that you can take to speed up your computer. These are basic, important but commonly ignored tips.
1)Keep it light
Delete every unusued programs from your computer. The same applies for every unused file hogging up space on the computer. And keep the recycle bin empty(files in recycle bin are as good as undeleted because they still hog up memory).
2)Minimise the number of startup programs
Orevent any unnecessart application to startup automatically when the computer starts up. These startup applications slowen your computer by running unnecessary background programs that you dont need to use at the moment. This fastens your computer's boot time.
3)Manage your Drive properly
Keep the free disk space of all your drives above 15%. This helps the computer find the files on the hard drive quickly. Prefer installing programs on any partition other than the one holding the operating system.
4)Guard against Viruses and Trojans
Install a good effective antivirus on your computer which doesn't slow your system. A good spyware scanner may also be installed(in case your computer is more prone to trojans). They help in keeping your files free from their bad effects, and keeps the computer fast. Also update your Windows whenever possible, as it also plays a major role in improving security and efficiency of the computer.
5)Some points to remember
Do not delete the shared files on your computer. Some programs use the same file,and the system can stop working if you delete such files. Better find out about the file before deleting it from the computer.
Hope these tips were handy for you guys. Comments are welcomed.
