1. Uninstall any unnecessary programs. Go to your computer’s control panel and use the ‘Uninstall a Program’ feature to remove any programs that you don’t use or recognize.
2. Clear up disk space. Empty your recycle bin, uninstall large programs that you rarely use, delete temporary files and defragment your hard drive.
3. Disable startup programs. Your startup programs often run in the background without you being aware of them. To stop these from running, go to your Task Manager and disable any unnecessary startup programs.
4. Update your system. Ensure that you keep your operating system up to date with the latest security patches and bug fixes.
5. Utilize a computer cleaner & optimizer. Use a program such as CCleaner or Advanced SystemCare to clean out unnecessary files and optimize your programs for maximum speed and efficiency.
