Speed Ur Pc

All Windows computers slow down over time – this is simply a fact of life, but that
doesn’t mean that you have to live with it. Contrary to what the computer industry as a
whole would have you believe, you do not have to upgrade your hardware every few
months to keep your computer fast and responsive to your requests – you just need to
clean up after it once in a while.

It is HIGHLY recommended that you create a backup of your computer before
undertaking any of these steps. This will help insure that you can go back to a previous
working version of your system if you make a mistake. The easiest way to do this is to
create a system restore point. For instructions on doing this, press F1 on your computer
and search for “Create Restore Point.


1.Remove Unused Applications
1) Click Start, click on “Control Panel” in the Start Menu.
2) Double-Click on “Add or Remove Programs” in the window that opens.
4) Scroll through the list of programs, look for anything that you do not recognize or
that you have not used in a while and don’t need.
5) Click on the name of a program that you would like to remove; it will expand and
show more details about the application.
6) On the right side of the highlighted application, there is a button labeled
“Remove”, click it.
7) You will be asked to confirm that you would like to remove the selected
application. Click on the ‘OK’ or ‘Yes’ button.
8) Each application is different, so you may be presented with an uninstall wizard. If
this happens, follow the directions on the wizard and you should be through in no
time.
9) Once the application has been removed, you may be prompted to restart your
computer. Click ‘NO’ or ‘Restart Later’ – you want to keep uninstalling
programs until you are down to the applications that you use on a regular basis.
10)You should be presented with the list of installed applications again, but with the
application you previously selected removed from the list. You can now repeat
steps 4 through 9 until you have removed all the applications you no longer need.


2.Defragment Your Hard Drive

3.Run The Hard Drive Cleanup Utility
1) Click Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools, then Disk Cleanup.
2) You will be asked to select which drive you want to cleanup, choose your primary
drive and click OK.
3) You will now see a progress bar on your screen – the tool is trying to determine
how much space it can free from your hard drive. After a few minutes it will
offer you a list of types of files that you will be able to remove from your
computer, and how much space can be gained by removing them.
Select which files you would like to remove – but be careful, you may actually
need something. Your best bets are usually anything that has the words
“Temporary Files” in it.
5) When you are ready to delete the selected files, click ‘OK’
6) Once again, walk away and let the system run. With this tool, it is recommended
that you let it run overnight.

4.Download and Run a Registry Cleanup Tool

A registry cleanup tool is a program that runs through your registry (a fancy name for a
configuration file) looking for errors and correcting them. There are several very good
ones on the market that offer you a trial, but some of them do require you to purchase the
entire package before getting full functionality. We have found no free tools that perform
a decent job of cleaning your registry, but there are a couple of full features trials that will
work nicely the first time, which is generally all you need.
