Computer novices often turn to specialists with just one problem: the computer seems to be new, the store said it was powerful, but not even a couple of months have passed and you discover that your computer is slow.

Moreover, the computer slows down so much that it begins to seem that your computer is at least five years old. The specialist you called just needs to work magic on your computer for 15 minutes - and it’s like new. How he does it? How to clean your computer yourself so that your computer does not slow down?

I will describe several reasons why the computer slows down, and then we will figure out how to eliminate all these problems. The first reason your computer is slowing down may be overheating. "How?" - you object to me, “After all, the computer is new! Has it really already become clogged with dust!? We even bought a special “computer” table for the computer!”

As experience shows, and I have seen a lot of designs of computer desks, I have come to the conclusion that the manufacturers of these same computer desks are very far from the computers themselves. That is, when designing computer tables, as a rule, they either have no idea how a computer works, or they simply sacrificed the functionality of the table for “beauty.”

And only in very expensive and high-quality computer desks (as a rule, imported, and not our “handicrafts”), you really feel care for your iron assistant on a par with beauty and functionality. How to clean your computer from dust?

A modern computer is equipped with very powerful processor, which, despite all the efforts of engineers, consumes quite a decent amount of electricity (sometimes the components of a system unit at peak loads can consume power of almost 700-800 W, and this is almost the power of a small electric kettle or hair dryer). Naturally, during operation, heat is generated, and quite a bit. This heat is removed from the system unit by continuously running fans. How to clean your computer from dust?

I hope you don’t need to prove for a long time that by putting your computer desk into a cabinet or “blind” niche system unit, and even placing stacks of them on top of the system unit with not yet the necessary documents– you doom your computer to a life of constant overheating. Naturally, the equipment endures, but the cooling fans begin to hum louder. At the slightest load they turn on at full power.

If the load or ambient temperature increases, electronic components your computer, a special built-in protection of the microprocessor is triggered - it’s called throttling.

The point of throttling is to artificially reduce the number of operations performed per second. That is, your computer, when performing some difficult task for it, begins to take small breaks, stop for some microscopic time, but repeatedly. Because of this, in particular, there are freezes in games, and when performing complex programs. And if the radiator on your computer’s processor is clogged with dust, the transition to throttling mode begins much earlier, and under lower loads. How to clean your computer from dust?

To make your computer work as fast as before and to prevent it from overheating, you need to clean it periodically. Here I mean mechanical cleaning of the computer.

To do this, it is enough to remove the system unit from the niche it occupies, and usually unscrew 2 screws (less often one or three), remove one and its side covers. To do this, you don’t even have to call a specialist - you can clean your computer yourself.

Here's what you might encounter sometimes:

In this way, clean your computer from dust wherever you can get it.

That's how much dust there is sometimes in a computer. How can you clean your computer without breaking anything in it? First, make sure that your system unit is completely disconnected from any wires from the outside. If you can’t remember where this or that wire is connected, make notes with a marker, or draw a connection diagram on a piece of paper - whatever is convenient for you. There is no need to disable anything inside the system unit.

If any wire remains connected, disconnect it. Take a small soft brush. Will do new brush to paint something, and also take a vacuum cleaner, having first removed all the attachments from it. If the vacuum cleaner has a wet cleaning function, make sure this mode is turned off. Under no circumstances should you allow water to get inside your computer!

Lay your system unit on its side, flat (you can do this on the floor). Turn the vacuum cleaner on suction. Hold the vacuum cleaner hose with your left hand, and bring this hose to the place where you see the fans and the largest amount of dust. A right hand, use a brush to gently “ruffle” the layers of dust on and in the radiator, while sucking them up with a vacuum cleaner. Actually, a vacuum cleaner is needed in in this case so that dust does not fly around your room.

Reinstall the system unit cover that you removed and screw it in with the screws. In principle, you don’t need to screw the lid if your system unit is located in a niche of a computer desk. But if you don’t like to see the insides of your computer, or are just somehow not calm, put the cover back in place.

Now your computer will not overheat and may stop slowing down.

In the case of a laptop, I still advise you to contact a specialist. Very few laptops allow you to get into their dusty insides simple removal covers. May often be required complete disassembly. At the same time, it is very easy to break delicate parts in a laptop. Therefore, I recommend that laptops be cleaned only by specialists. But they need to be cleaned no less often and sometimes more often than desktop computers. Since everything in laptops is very compact, which means it is much easier for dust to linger.

Laptop cooling system clogged with dust. Felt-like dust rolls completely clog the laptop cooling system. This slows him down.

Here is a typical picture that every service center engineer observes in laptops, and which most of you are not aware of. Rolls of dust, similar to felt, completely clog the cooling system of the laptop, and it, overheating, begins to slow down terribly. And if you don’t clean this dust in time, your laptop will face more serious problems and, accordingly, more expensive repairs. Do you need it? So take your laptop to be cleaned service center at least once a year. Especially if you have pets.

How to clean programs?

So, we’ve cleaned the computer’s hardware, but the computer is still slowing down – so let’s start cleaning the software.

Among the many reasons why your computer slows down may be an infection of your computer. malware – various viruses, Trojans, worms and other evil spirits. Before cleaning your computer, I highly recommend getting rid of all this crap. How to get rid of viruses? Install a good one, powerful antivirus and run full check your computer for viruses!

Which antivirus should you choose? Everyone has their own preferences. I would recommend installing an antivirus from one of the reputable companies. Do not try to download and install antiviruses from little-known companies - these may be so-called false antiviruses. Instead of being useful, they can cause even more harm to your computer.

You can even install paid antivirus– trial version. The trial version of a paid antivirus is usually fully functional and has a limitation only in operating time, usually a month. In any case, a paid antivirus is always better and more effective than a free one.

Important note! Never, under any circumstances, install two or more antiviruses at the same time. This may be another reason why your computer is slowing down.

We checked for viruses, there is only one antivirus in the system, but it’s still there – the computer is slow!

We clean temporary files that have accumulated on your computer during your work. To do this, you must first enable the display of hidden files. Here my tips will differ depending on what Windows is installed on your computer.

Enable display of hidden files in Windows 7 (Vista):

What can you do to stop your computer from buzzing?

Click on: Start=> Control Panel=> Folders settings. Go to the tab View, put a dot in the column “ Show hidden files and folders", then uncheck " Hide system, protected files (recommended)". The computer will swear - they say that you definitely thought, you agree and have not changed your mind at all, and you will not sue Microsoft for revealing your own system files. To all this verbiage you click an affirmative “Yes”!

Now you will be surprised to find that some new files and folders have appeared on your C drive.

Attention: do not delete these files and folders, otherwise your computer may never boot again!

Now the most important part of our whole venture begins. Cleaning the files! Read further carefully. I am not responsible for the fact that you did not read carefully and deleted something wrong.

Let's go to Computer => Local disk(WITH:) => Windows=> Prefetch(we go into it even if Windows doesn’t let us in the first time). In folder Prefetch(and only in it) delete all files and folders.

Returning to the folder Windows and now we find the folder Temp. There we also select everything (you can press Ctrl+A) and delete it.

The following paragraph should be followed if you have Windows 7 or Vista...(For Windows owners XP - see next paragraph)

Now let's go back toLocal disk (C:), go to the folderUsers, from it we go touser folderunder which you are registered in the system. Next we find the folderAppData => Localand only in this folder we find the folderTemp, go into it and delete everything in the folderTemp.

Attention! If you have everything more Windows XP - do the following... (For Windows 7 owners, this paragraph does not need to be completed)

Now let's go back to Local disk (C:), go to the folder Documents and Settings, from it we go to user folder under which you are registered in the system. Next we find the folder Local Settings and only in this folder we find the folder Temp, go into it and delete everything in the folder Temp.

Let's go back to the folder Local Settings. Go to the folder Temporary Internet Files and we also wipe everything inside it.

If there are several users on the computer, the described actions must be performed by going to the folder of each user one by one...

Next step, do standard cleaning drive C. To do this, go to Computer, on the icon Local Lisk (C:) click right click mice, go to Properties and check if the checkbox is checked Shrink this drive to save space. If the checkbox is checked, uncheck it and then confirm changing the settings for all files on drive C!

Why? Because the files on drive C are compressed slightly and by activating this option you will free up no more than 100 MB of space, but the computer will slow down one and a half times more. After all, on compressed disk In order to perform any operation, the computer must first decompress your data (this wastes time), and then when writing the data, it is compressed again - this is also a waste of time.

In fact, with this checkbox installed, your archiver is continuously running, alternately compressing and decompressing your files - do you need it? If there is not enough space, buy a more capacious one HDD! But let's get back to our disk cleanup. Click on the button Disk Cleanup. In Windows 7, I also recommend activating the option Clean system files. Then click OK and wait.

Yes! People asked a question here - Do you need to check all the boxes when cleaning the disk?? I answer: in Windows 7 - you can do opposite to all the points, but in Windows XP not everything! Don't check the box "Compress old files" Otherwise, Windows XP will compress all files that it considers old, which means that over time they will slow down when opening, and it will not be easy to decompress them.

Except that Windows 7, with the “Clean up system files” option enabled, thoroughly cleans out one tricky folder called winsxs, sometimes reducing its size by more than half. If you have Windows 7, just for fun, go to the C:\Windows folder and see how much this winsxs DADDY takes?... 😉

Fast and beautiful! Disable some visual effects.

To make visual effects work faster (like Windows Aero), disable some of them. If you properly disable visual effects, your computer will slow down less, and appearance you won't notice the effects turning off.

I don’t recommend disabling Windows Aero, that is, transparent windows, completely (of course, if your computer and your Windows edition 7 supports it). The point is that when Windows activation Aero transfers the graphics load completely to the video card, thus freeing up your processor to perform your tasks.

How to disable effects correctly, but so that everything is beautiful as before? Right-click on Computer, go to Properties, then to Extra options system and activate the Advanced tab. Where it says Performance, click on Settings.

Uncheck the following lines (for Windows 7):

1. Animation in the Start menu and taskbar.
2. Animation of windows when minimizing and maximizing.
3. Animated controls and elements inside the window.
4. Smooth scrolling of lists.
5. The menu fades after calling the command.
6. Sliding when expanding lists.
7. Fade or slide effects when accessing menus.
8. Fade or slide effects when tooltips appear.

After all this has been done, click Ok, Ok...

It would also be nice to do an audit of your autostart. To do this, press Win+R, enter msconfig in the search bar and press Enter. In the startup section, thoroughly uncheck the boxes for downloaded applications and drivers. I purposely don’t describe what exactly to turn off because I don’t want to get you in the neck if you turn off something wrong. This is the lot of more experienced brothers.

Disable System Restore.

Beginners naively believe that system recovery is a panacea for all computer ills, but this is not always the case. System Restore (Rollback) helps mainly when you have problems with Windows itself, a driver, etc. But as a rule, beginners have all sorts of “left-behind goodness” programs installed on their computers. third party developers, not always competent and not always honest. Therefore, system recovery is more of a function in the manner of “What if it helps?” but nothing more. But what System Restore brings to the system is no joke. Are we turning it off? Let's turn it off!

Right click again on Computer, Further Properties, System protection. Against Local disk (C:) you will see “Enabled”. We highlight Local disk (C:), Press the button Tune and put a dot opposite Disable System Protection. (The inscriptions are menacing but not scary). In addition, you can also free your long-suffering disk (by clicking the Delete button) from all restore points made by the system. Then Ok and voila!

And one more thing, I forgot at first, I’ll add it!

If 2 or more are installed on your computer (for example 4 - 8 GB) random access memory, and you do not use resource-intensive programs (for example Photoshop), or cool games— feel free to disable the swap file!

Click Start, and right-click on Computer, in the window that appears at the top left of it, find the inscription "Advanced system settings", as in my screenshot:

Another window will open Properties of the system, in which you need to select a tab Additionally. Then we pay attention to the Performance section (we already climbed there when we turned off part of visual effects) - and press the button Options- like here:

Clean your computer from viruses?

In another window that opens Performance Options- find and click on tab Additionally, and in the area Virtual memory press the button Change… like this:

How to clean your computer from viruses?

Ugh! Finally got to the right place! The window called Virtual memory:

How to clean your computer from viruses?

If there is a check mark on Automatically select paging file size- remove it, as I did in the picture.

Next, place a circle opposite No swap file and press the button Set. Windows is unhappy with the message — they say don’t turn it off, otherwise it’s Khan. But you didn’t lie to me and you have more on your computer at least two gigabytes of RAM and you are aware of what you are doing. So feel free to press the button YES! And then confirm the result by pressing OK. The system will ask you to reboot, so allow it!

And lo and behold! After rebooting, it’s as if someone has replaced your computer! He literally flies! In addition, as in my case, as much as 2 GB of additional space on the hard drive was freed up. If you have more RAM, then more will be freed up! Another useful advancement - now your Windows is loaded entirely into RAM, and when running it practically does not use the hard drive! It wears out less!

If you have to run something resource-intensive, don’t worry. If the computer does not have enough RAM, it will just warn you about it. Then you can repeat the above steps, but just check the box at the top Automatically select the size of the paging file, and press OK. Then Windows will configure everything itself. But this is so, for every fireman.

The computer and Viruses were cleaned, the dust was wiped off. Have you noticed that your computer is starting to run a little faster and is more responsive to keystrokes and clicks? All? No! A little bit more. Now that we already have a clean computer - . For those who don’t know what it is and why – here you go.

By the way! If your computer has Windows 7 installed or at worst Windows Vista– don’t skimp and buy separately for your pet, special flash drive, which you use to use the technology - you won’t regret it. It is not necessary to take a super large flash drive, the main thing is that it works quickly. You can buy a flash drive that is about 2 times larger in volume than the amount of RAM on your computer. For example, if the amount of RAM in your computer is 2 GB, buy a 4 GB flash drive and so on. The performance increase, especially in games, is noticeable. How to enable and use the technology.

As you can see, we did without. And the computer, unlike the use of “all sorts of cyclers,” actually began to work faster. In addition, we have freed up 10-15 GB of space on your hard drive. And now you don’t need to use “squeezers”. Don't forget to hide hidden and system files again. So. For peace of mind. And by the way, this lesson of mine will be almost completely useless for you - if you have an ancient computer. Because there is no point in making new things out of old things. Good luck to you! And don’t let your computer slow down!

Last time we looked at it, but this time I’ll tell you how delete computer junk manually, by using Windows tools and programs.

1. First, let's look at where garbage is stored in operating systems.

In Windows XP

We go in and delete everything in the folders: Windows temporary files:

• C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\History
• C:\Windows\Temp
• C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temp
• C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Local Settings\History

For Windows 7 and 8

Windows temporary files:

• C:\Windows\Temp
• C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp
• C:\Users\All Users\TEMP
• C:\Users\All Users\TEMP
• C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Temp

Browser cache

Opera cache:

• C:\users\username\AppData\Local\Opera\Opera\cache\

Mozilla cache:

• C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\ folder\Cache

Google Chrome cache:

• C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Bromium\User Data\Default\Cache
• C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache

Or enter it in the address chrome://version/ and see the path to the profile. There will be a folder there Cache

Temporary Internet files:

• C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\

Recent documents:

• C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\

Some folders may be hidden from view prying eyes. To show them you need.

2. Cleaning the disk from temporary and unused files using

Standard Disk Cleanup tool

1. Go to “Start” -> “All Programs” -> “Accessories” -> “System Tools” and run the “Disk Cleanup” program.

2. Select the disk to clean:

The disk scanning process will begin...

3. A window will open with information about the amount of space occupied by temporary files:

Check the boxes next to the partitions you want to clear and click OK.

4. But this not all. If you installed Windows 7 not on a blank disk, but on top of a previously installed operating system, you probably have space-consuming folders such as Windows.old or $WINDOWS.~Q.

Additionally, it may make sense to remove control points system recovery (except the last one). To perform this operation, repeat steps 1-3, but this time click “Clean up system files”:

5. After the procedure described in step 2, the same window will open, but the “Advanced” tab will appear at the top. Go to it.

Under System Restore and Shadow Copies, click Clean.

3. Files pagefile.sys and hiberfil.sys

The files are located in the root system disk and take up quite a lot of space.

1. The pagefile.sys file is system swap file(virtual memory). You cannot delete it (it is not recommended to reduce it either), but you can and even need to move it to another disk.

This is done very simply, open “Control Panel - System and Security - System”, select “Advanced system settings” in the “Performance” section, click “Options”, switch to the “Advanced” tab (or press the win + R key combination, the command “execute” will open and there type SystemPropertiesAdvanced) and in the “Virtual Memory” section click “Change”. There you can select the location of the paging file and its size (I recommend leaving “Size as selected by the system”).

4. Removing unnecessary programs from the disk

A good way to free up disk space (and how additional bonus increase system performance) is to remove unused programs.

Go to Control Panel and select “Uninstall Programs”. A list will appear in which you can select the program you want to remove and click “Delete”.

5. Defragmentation

Defragmentation hard drive, carried out by a defragmenter program, allows you to organize the contents of clusters, that is, move them on the disk so that clusters with the same file are placed sequentially, and empty clusters are combined. This leads to increase speed access to files, and therefore to some increase in computer performance, which at high level fragmentation the disk may turn out to be quite noticeable. Standard program Disk Defragmenter is located at: Start>All Programs>Accessories>Utilities>Disk Defragmenter

This is what the program looks like. In which you can analyze disk, where the program will show a diagram of disk fragmentation and tell you whether or not you need to defragment. You can also set a schedule for when the disk will be defragmented. This is a program built into Windows, there is also individual programs disk defragmentation, for example, which you can download here:

Its interface is also quite simple.

Here are its advantages over the standard program:

1. Analysis before disk defragmentation Do a disk analysis before defragmenting. After the analysis, a dialog box is displayed with a diagram showing the percentage of fragmented files and folders on the disk and a recommendation for action. It is recommended to carry out analysis regularly, and defragmentation only after appropriate recommendations from a disk defragmentation program. It is recommended to perform disk analysis at least once a week. If the need for defragmentation occurs rarely, the disk analysis interval can be increased to one month.
2. Analysis after addition large number files After adding large quantity files or folders, the disks may become excessively fragmented, so in such cases it is recommended to analyze them.
3. Availability check of at least 15% free space on disk To defragment completely and correctly using Disk Defragmenter, the disk must have at least 15% free space. Disk Defragmenter uses this volume as an area to sort file fragments. If the amount is less than 15% of free space, Disk Defragmenter will only perform a partial defragmentation. To free extra bed on the disk, delete unnecessary files or move them to another disk.
4. Defragmentation after installation software or Windows installations Defragment drives after installing software or after performing an update or clean install Windows. Disks often become fragmented after installing software, so running Disk Defragmenter can help ensure peak file system performance.
5. Save time on disk defragmentation You can save a little time required for defragmentation if you remove junk files from your computer before starting the operation, and also exclude from consideration the system files pagefile.sys and hiberfil.sys, which are used by the system as temporary, buffer files and are recreated at the beginning of each Windows session .

6. Remove unnecessary things from startup

7. Remove everything unnecessary from

Well, I think you know for yourself what you don’t need on your desktop. And you can read how to use it. , a very important procedure, so don’t forget about it!

Has your computer started to slow down?

Is your desktop littered with unnecessary shortcuts and files downloaded a hundred years ago? At the same time, messages regularly pop up from the tray from programs that you have never even heard of?

Congratulations, you have CRUSHED your computer.

Today I will tell you how I keep my main work tool clean - my laptop.

Shitty computers

Oh, I see them all the time. Relatives and friends regularly ask me to clean their computer.

After all, as is customary with us, I installed the game, played for a week, and then it lay on the disk for 2 years. What if you want to play?

Or even worse - some kind of service that constantly hangs in the computer’s memory, causing brakes. We may not have needed it for 100 years, but every time the system starts, it also starts.

It also happens that programs install themselves. Well, who, tell me, will remove unnecessary checkboxes during installation?

Over the years of this attitude, the system turns into Augean stables. And now all this rubbish jumps, blinks, asks to be updated or reports some “important” news. Plus, everything slows down. And the owner is thinking about buying new hardware, otherwise the old one “doesn’t work anymore.”

But all you need to do is clean your computer thoroughly, and then follow basic hygiene rules.

Regularity

Yes it Magic word and here at the forefront.

Regular cleaning is the key to a neat and responsive computer. Cleaning takes me only 6 minutes once every 2 weeks.

In order not to forget about it, I am posting a separate reminder.

I also have a special checklist that helps me clean my computer point by point. It has 7 points:

1. Cleaning your desktop
2. Cleaning torrents
3. Removal unused programs
4. Autorun check
5. Clearing bookmarks

Below I will describe each point in more detail.

1. Cleaning the desktop (45 seconds)

Like it or not, the desktop is gradually becoming littered. Various shortcuts, downloaded files, etc. accumulate on it.

For example, now my desktop looks like this:

But there are still 9 whole days until the next cleaning.

So, when the day of cleaning comes, I transfer everything useful from the desktop to my storage system (this is a topic for another article), and delete the unnecessary.

By the way, I don’t store frequently used shortcuts on my desktop. The very best sit in the panel quick launch, others - in the Start menu:

2. Cleaning torrents (15 seconds)

Often torrents with some series can take up up to 30% of my disk. I delete them regularly.

The less data on your hard drive, the faster the virus scan will be.

3. Disk Cleanup (30 seconds)

After installation, go to the “Cleaning” tab. There, first click “Analysis” and then “Cleaning”.

What have we done?

We deleted all kinds of temporary files and emptied the trash:

As you can see, 273 MB will be cleared. Not so bad.

4. Registry Cleaner (25 seconds)

Executed in the same program. We are interested in the “Register” tab. On it, click “Search for problems”, and then “Fix...”.

What have we done?

We cleaned system registry Windows from various crap:

5. Remove unused programs (30 seconds)

It happens that I installed some program just to, say, create one video. After which it can and should be removed.

Remember that you can always download the desired program and install it in a couple of minutes. So is it worth keeping such junk in your system for years?

Also, as I wrote above, programs can install themselves if I forget to uncheck a box somewhere during installation. Such programs should all the more be destroyed.

You can uninstall the program using the usual using Windows, but I do it in the same CCleaner.

Go to “Tools” > “Uninstall programs”. Choose unnecessary program and click “Uninstall”. The “Uninstall” button does not remove the program from the computer, but only removes it from this list. Keep this in mind!

6. Autorun check (60 seconds)

Important point. Together with the start of the system, a cloud of programs starts and then sits in memory. For novice users, it can reach monstrous sizes and eat up a lot of RAM.

Go to “Tools” > “Startup” > “Windows”. We check whether all applications should be launched at the start. If not, then turn off the application:

How to clean your computer so it doesn't slow down. You can clean it either manually, removing unnecessary debris, or using programs. Let's look at the best free programs and show you how to do it manually.

Hi all!
Today we will clean your computer of all kinds of infections, garbage, literally and figuratively.
I often have problems with its braking.
To be more specific, everything is more or less normal with it, you don’t have to clean it often, but there are problems with the laptop).
Rises logical question.
If the computer is stuck, what should I do with Windows 7, 10?
After troubleshooting, or rather removing a bunch of junk from it, it comes to life).
Let's first show you how to do it yourself and then look at the best free programs designed for these purposes.

How to clean your computer so it doesn’t slow down, clear cookies, browser cache, don’t delete necessary programs

Very often, especially a laptop, begins to freeze due to overheating.
Why is it heating up?
Usually standard problem- it's dust. Laptops are especially sensitive to it.
If dust slows down your computer, what should you do with Windows 7, 10?
To eliminate it, there are 2 options.

The first is to do it yourself. You can open it and clean it, you can use a vacuum cleaner, just watch the buttons, especially for a laptop, otherwise you will be left without them).

The second is to take it to a computer repair service.
I last time When I gave the laptop to the service, I had no problems with its heating for a year.

That's it for the dust.
A very common reason for your computer to slow down is because you have accumulated a lot of junk in your browser.
All actions, namely transitions to sites, your requests in search engine remain in memory in your browser's cache. Because of this, he can be stupid.
Therefore, friends, cache and cookies need to be cleared, at least sometimes.

How to clear cache and cookies on your computer?
We do everything as in the screenshot.


Click - tools - delete data - inter.
A window like this will open.


Here you can choose for what period of time to clear cookies and cache in the browser; select for the entire time.
Check the box everywhere, you don’t have to clear passwords.
Next, click “clear history.” In principle, this completes cleaning cookies and cache in the browser.
If you've never done this before, your machine should work much faster when surfing the Internet.
The second option why your friend is slow is because you have a lot of junk on it, or rather hard memory the disk is running out, in this situation your horse will be very blunt.
Even if it still has a lot of memory, but you have dozens of gigs of it, it will still fail.
To prevent your laptop from sticking, you need to remove some of the unnecessary junk on it.
Perhaps you no longer use many of them and never will.
We will clean your computer manually, removing everything unnecessary on it.

1. Right-click on the Start shortcut.
This shortcut is located on the left, in the very corner.
2. Select "control panel."


3. Everything is as in the picture “removing programs”
Everything installed on it will open on your PC.
Work).

Another question.
But what should you do if your PC just slowly opens some applications, games, and generally becomes sluggish?

Cleaning your computer using a free program

In general, it often happens that your laptop has errors in the registry; for example, you deleted a game, but somewhere on it there is garbage left from it; it’s quite problematic to look for it yourself.
If the computer is stuck, what should I do with Windows 7, 10?
There are special applications for these purposes.

In general, there are a great many of these on the Internet, the main disadvantage of these programs is that most of them are paid.
We will look at 2 free programs to clean our PC.
One of them has long gained popularity among users.
I found another one on the Internet not long ago, checked it and I’m pleased with its work.

Let's start with the classics.
The first program is ccleaner.
You can download it by searching cleaner.org.
Before downloading it, don't forget to select your language. It can probably be installed in any language in the world; oddly enough, the Russian language is present in the program).
CCleaner in its arsenal has such features as: cleaning any browser and correcting the registry of your horse. I especially like the 2nd one.
With this program, after complete cleaning computer, you will forget that it slowed you down.
By the way, it is completely free.

Verified. I advise you, you won’t regret it).
Let's move on.
Everything I described above helps clean your car perfectly and will relieve it from slowing down, but what to do if your computer slows down due to pop-up windows, banners, and advertisements?
Of course, there are antivirus programs for these purposes, but the problem is that the antivirus does not always catch mice.

After a few weeks Windows operation a significant number of temporary files accumulate (application caches, remnants from installers and remote programs, history of Internet browsers). If you do not periodically get rid of such objects, and the size of the system disk is limited to 20-50 GB, then operating system starts to work slower due to the fact that the files are fragmented - parts of one are located in several places, or even several dozen places. The situation becomes especially dire when there are several hundred megabytes left free space– the computer in such cases works very slowly.
