How to make your Computer More Faster?

Q. How can I quickly work on a PC?

A. Today’s PCs are more powerful than ever, but we use them more and more. If you are serious about the game, everyday wear and tear on your PC can cause chaos on your equipment. What could have been a top-of-the-line gaming powerhouse a year ago could have sucked in the wind, like a plumber climbing stairs today if you don’t take care of it properly.

A web browser, productivity software, smart device synchronization, video, messaging, and even some games can mess up your system even if you don’t use them, clogging your OS with hardware and software that you didn’t use within a few months, the Material that appears and makes your life miserable when you least expect it, for example, photos from “that night,” peeking out from under the couch.

Therefore, to help you keep your car in top condition throughout the season, here are a few basic steps you can take to bring spring back to the pitch of your PC without buying any new hardware or spending a single dollar.

Windows Tweaking is part of the fun of computer games, but operating systems have become so complex that it’s sometimes difficult to figure out where they hide the stuff you want to customize. And some programs, such as Microsoft Office, may leave traces of themselves in places you will never find. The best way to instantly speed up your PC’s performance is to start with a fresh installation of Windows.

In newer versions of Windows there is a neat feature that will allow you to transfer your programs and settings to a new computer (or a new installation to an old one), but this will hit the target, since most of the luggage slowing down your car is together for the trip. So don’t do it.

Instead, you will want to save all your irreplaceable data (files, bookmarks, saved images, etc.) to an external hard drive (or your additional drive, if you have one), and completely erase the slate by running the quick format on your drive C: and reinstalling your copy of Windows from the disk on which it appeared. Just remember to set aside a full day for the process and install all available updates, and then continue to check for updates until you see more available. Sometimes you will need eight or nine passes to completely update the OS, depending on what taste of Windows you use.

Like I said: all day.

If you just want to periodically rejuvenate Windows or don’t want to worry about reinstalling, Registry Reviver on this very site is a good tool that will set up your Windows registry to clean corrupted registry data and help make your PC faster and more stable. This is not as thorough as reformatting and reinstalling Windows, but for random settings it will do the job.

Pre-installed crap

Keep Your PC at the Top of its Game

As much as I like building PCs, I have to admit that I also bought several computers. It’s easy, takes less time to get up and work, and if it breaks, I can send it to someone else to fix it. Unfortunately, when most PC developers preinstall Windows, they also preinstall a lot of other crap with them. Some of them are not very friendly, and all this can slow down your PC.

You can solve this problem in one of two ways: either buy your own copy of Windows, or perform a clean installation, mentioned above, or run a program that will identify and eliminate all the pre-installed shit imposed on you by the manufacturer. I like PC Decrapifier . It is free, easy to use and allows you to selectively delete or disable all materials that automatically start when windows start. If your OS comes with a drive with a logo other than Microsoft, then you must run PC Decrapifier at least once. You may be surprised at what you find.

Malware and SpywareMalicious and spyware programs are programs designed to covertly and inconspicuously live on your PC and collect data about how you use it. Sometimes they are also designed to steal your personal information to help people steal your money or identity. These are bad things, and this is all over the place, and in addition to potentially causing you serious headaches in life, it can really slow down your machine.

New versions of Windows are installed with a pre-installed firewall and some limited anti-malware protection, but you are going to want to run a special firewall program to protect residents and at least one more anti-malware program to detect and clean stains. For firewalls you cannot beatZone Alarm .

I have used it for a decade and swear it. Although the company is now under new management, the product is still super-efficient and very easy to use. It also has a “game mode” that allows you to get rid of it when you want to get the maximum speed, but still want to be protected.
I use several different programs to detect and remove malware and spyware to try to ensure that some new error doesn’t reach my machine, or that if I’m lucky who gets it first, I will get rid of it as soon as possible .

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware , Super Anti-Spyware and Spybot S & D are my dream team. If you do not find malware, the other two will usually be. Each program has a certain degree of protection “always on”, but if you use ZoneAlarm, you do not need it, and it will slow down. Just make sure you update the programs and run them at least once a month.

The best part: all of these programs have free versions or offer free trials, so you can get the protection you need without spending a fortune on an annual license for Norton.

Updating drivers It is very simple, most of us forget about it, but it is important to regularly update drivers, and not just when you buy new equipment. Older drivers might work efficiently on your PC or make your programs and games do a little extra work. Hardware manufacturers are constantly improving their driver software to ensure that your computer is compatible with the latest software and games. As they do the job, all you have to do is check for updates and install them.

One way to make sure you keep track of your drivers is to save the bookmark file on the support pages for all hardware manufacturers on your PC and regularly check these pages. If you bought a pre-built PC, sometimes your manufacturer will have an online tool that does your job for you.

But if you are looking for an easy way to do this, ReviverSoft Driver Reviver phenomenally understands what is in your inbox and find out if your drivers are updated. The program will even install them for you.

I must admit, the first time I launched Driver Reviver, I was a little upset that I did not have to do any work to update the 18 or 20 drivers on my system that were out of date. Then I overcame this and spent the time that I would spend on updating drivers that themselves played games.

Software Sync and Update Another thing worth paying attention to is programs related to your smartphone or other connected devices. These programs maintain a constant presence in your system memory so that they can detect when you connect your device. This amount of memory is a constant drain of your computer’s resources, and it is much more than the amount of memory that you will not have for free for your games.

If you like the ability to connect your smartphone and automatically synchronize or open files, then this is a slowdown with which you will have to live, but if the speed is your priority, turn off the constantly operating functions. Some programs allow you to do this in your settings, but for others you may need to nuclear and completely remove synchronization programs. This is another area where PC decrapifier can help you. Use it wisely.

Temp Files and Other Garbage. Even if you use a clean, error-free and fully updated machine, simple daily use can cause temporary files, cached data and a lot of other garbage that make your web browser and productivity software faster, but significantly slow down game processes. You can configure most web browsers to not store data or to clean it after closing the program, and if you are serious about the speed of the game, I recommend you for this. You lose luxury when you can enter two letters in the search box in the browser and immediately know where you want to go, but the speed compromise is worth it.

Cache files, histories, cookies and saved images accumulate faster than you think and take up a lot of hard disk space in the same places where your other programs and games want to store data. Even you are careful and diligent, things still accumulate. Crap Cleaner is the best when cleaning it. And it’s free.

Bonus: Clean Download

No matter which version of Windows you are using, you can “clear the boot”. Although it is not as effective as programming a .BAT file in the old days of DOS, it will still give you the opportunity to run with a minimum of unnecessary “helper programs” that slow down your work.

For Windows Vista and Windows 7, just click “ Start” and type msconfig in the box. On the General tab , select Selective Launch , then go to the Services tab . Here you need to select ” Hide all Microsoft services” and then ” Disable all . ” Click “ OK” , reboot, and in the end you will get a faster PC that will do almost everything you want, but faster.
