The easy steps
- Remove unneeded software
- Scan for and remove Viruses, and other malware
- Run MSConfig and start all unnecessary applications and processes from loading at boot
- Clean temporary files
- Defrag
- Clean your registry
- Add more Ram
Once this is done keep your AV software up to date, as well as your system and be careful out there.
I am assuming you are on a Windows computer. If so, there are a number of things you can do to speed up your computer's performance. If you open up 'My Computer' and right-click on your hard-drive (C:), you can click on properties and the option 'Clean-up Disk' comes. In this menu, you can delete temporary files and most importantly de-fragment your computer. Essentially over time your computer changes file locations and downloads file in a disorganized fashion and this time-consuming process called 'defragmentation' put's everything back in an efficient order, which allows your computer to access files quicker. I suggest doing this right before you go to bed as it will take a long time to do. Hope this helps.
Go to --- Control panel
Add or Remove programs
Delete unwanted files or softwares
And then keep the c drive with available memory and then have good antivirus... sure your computer will work speed...
You can't delete unwanted files with Add/Remove programs. And you really don't recommend someone who claims to not be computer savvy go around deleting unwanted files without the help of some safe software to do it - hmm, wonder what kind of mess that might get them into.
