Sometimes we are annoyed by the slowness of our computer. This is due to the fact that a lot of programs and services are installed, some of which we do not even use. Let's look at how you can get rid of this scourge.
Instructions
Step 1
We put the classic style of the Start menu. Right-click on the bottom panel, "Properties", click the "Start Menu" tab, select "Classic Start Menu", click "OK".
Step 2
Disable unnecessary design effects. Right-click on the desktop in any empty space, and in the menu that appears, look for the "Properties" menu item, the "Appearance" tab. We select "Classic style". Press the button "Effects". We remove all the jackdaws, but do not touch the last one.
Step 3
Let's remove the visual effects. In the "Control Panel" select "System". In the "Advanced" tab in the "Performance" frame, click on the "Options" button. In the window that opens, look for and select the "Visual Effects" item. Disable everything that we see.
Step 4
Disable error reporting. Go to the "properties" of My computer and select the tabs: "System Properties" and on the "Advanced" tab - "Error Reporting", select "Disable Error Reporting".
Step 5
Remove Windows Messenger. Every time the system boots, Messenger also starts up, slows down the boot process, and eats up system resources. Click on the "Start" - "Run" menu bar, enter the following: "RunDll32 advpack.dll, LaunchINFSection% windir% INFmsmsgs.inf, BLC. Remove" and click "OK". After restarting Windows Messenger, you will no longer see it.
Step 6
Let's set the optimal value for the paging file. Go to the "Properties" of My Computer and select the tabs: "System Properties" - "Advanced" - "Performance" - "Advanced" - "Virtual Memory" - "Change". The original size and the maximum, most often, it is recommended to set the same. For games, memory is required several times more.
Step 7
Disable unnecessary programs from startup. Click on the "Start" menu bar, select the "Run" item, enter "msconfig". We select the "Startup" tab - and uncheck those programs that you do not need at system startup.
Step 8
We clean the "prefetch" folder, which is located: C: windowsprefetch. This folder contains links to startup applications and programs that you use. The existing links in this folder are simply not used, or used extremely rarely. But when loading, the system checks the links in this folder, and because of this, the system loads for much longer. Clearing this folder will speed up performance. Do not reboot the system after cleaning. This can degrade performance.
Step 9
We clean the registry. In order to clean the registry, there are many programs, such as: Advanced SystemCare, uninstaller, regorganizer, RegCleaner, RegSupremePro, CCleaner. In general, there are many examples, but for home use this is quite enough.
