Want a Fast Computer - Perform a SYSTEM CLEAN-UP

1. Is your PC slowing down?
2. Programs don’t run as fast as they used to?
3. It takes longer to boot up system?
4. Takes forever to shut down?
5. PC letting you down when you need it the most?

One of our most recent customers was facing the above problems. She insisted that her system was working perfectly few days back but recently it had developed the above problems and would just not work. With the latest and updated Virus scan she couldn’t find any reason for her system to function so slow and difficult.

So she called us at Ask PC Experts and the following happened:

With normal check up of the drives and amount of space available in each drive, the content in the drives and the content occupying maximum space in the drive we found the cause. The problem was caused was due to presence of a large number of unused/unneeded files, temporary files and the Registry.


System Cleanup for a Faster PC - Ask PC Experts

Unused/Unneeded files: Files which are not needed by the system or yourself for any applications. Files which were installed while installing certain applications and have no use today. Files that were loaded in your system while running any online application.

Temporary Files/Cookies: Every time we download a file or an application a temporary file/folder is created in the system. Also, cookies are built up in the system when we surf on the web. These temporary files/cookies are plenty in numbers and occupy a lot of space within the system with time.

Registry: the registry is a system-defined database used by the Windows Operating System to store configuration information. Most Windows applications write data to the registry during installation and system components store and retrieve configuration data through the registry. The data stored in the registry varies from system to system. Over a period of time the size of the same increases due to presence of many entries not required. The more the number of entries in the registry the longer it takes for the system to find things and hence the system becomes slow.

To be able to remove the above we suggested her for a System Clean Up which would enable the deletion of all the above not required files which were occupying too much space in the system.

There are various software packages available for system clean up. For one point system clean up they serve as an easier medium of system clean up. System Clean Up tools are also inbuilt in the OS. From there itself the system can be cleaned to improve efficiency and also keep the system healthy.
