How To Speed Up Your Slow Computer

Speed Up Your Computer
This is one of the most searched problem that why my is too slow? how to speed up my computer? and so on. There are several reasons that your system is too slow and they can be using a lot of apps, running huge apps at a time, running heavy and unsupportable programs which requires high memory devices in your system such as Hard disk, Ram and Processor. Well, Today in this post I'm going to show you that how can we speed up our computer with simple tips which are really useful to increase speed of your system instantly.

1. Stop/Close Unnecessary Applications

This one is the most useful trick which I also do usually when my computer hangs down or becomes too lazy. You might have installed some software or applications which works in background. In simple words, there are some apps which are seen closed but they actually does their process behind the scene. You can find them in taskbar when date, time and other things are showed up. Each program which is being run in your system keeps some space in RAM memory. It means, if you've 1GB ram, a program is running in your system which keeps 200MB space then that program keeps 200MB in ram memory while it is running and 800MB space will remain in your RAM until that program doesn't end. So, close each and every that application which is important in order to speed up your computer.

2. Uninstall/Remove Unnecessary Applications

After closing unnecessary programs you should enter into the next step for improving the speed of your computer. Second step is that, you've to uninstall those programs which you do not use usually or you don't even use them. Installing a lot of applications in the system can make your computer more lazy as it is recommended by pros to use only necessary and less applications in your system in order to go great with your computer speed. The reason, when you turn on your computer then you might have noticed that you need to wait sometime while it opens completely. In the background, it does any process while your computer gets turned on. You know, what actually happens at that time? Then let me tell you. When you turn on your computer then it reads the each and every file in your hard disk. In which windows files, your personal data and applications which are installed. So, go and uninstall the unnecessary applications in your computer.

3. Run Ccleaner and Other Computer Cleaners

Once upon a time, an incident happened with me! I was new in the computer world and newly learned how to install new window in your computer. Well, It was my first time when I installed window myself in my computer. At that time, I checked how much space the window has took in C drive. It was near to 4 to 5GB. After that, I started surfing the internet only. I surfed a lot of internet and the 30 days had passed. No application or any new software was installed, even I didn't even store the personal data in hard work. Then suddenly, I checked the disk space of C drive and was shocked that It had increased from 5GB to 8GB even I had not stored any kind of data and not installed any software. Just after a short research, I found that how that space increased. When you browse website, that websites sends the short files which are used by that site to collect and store data. This is for the better privacy. In other words, they can be cookies, CSS files, JS files, PHP files and history in the browser. Let's come to our main point, I recommend to run Ccleaner and other computer cleaners who deletes this kind of data and fix other simple errors. When the hard disk gets full it also makes the system load lazy and for this, we should not always full our hard disk with unnecessary files. 

4. Install and Use Best Antiviruses

The fourth point of our today's article is that we should install and use any best antivirus in our computers. If you're using Windows 8 then I had shared some best antivirus for windows 8 which you can download and use today. Browsing a lot of websites on internet, connecting external files like USB and other similar points bring the virus to our system. These are the main points from where virus enters into your system and you should avoid doing these things. I don't say that don't do this but don't connect those devices which are full of virus or before connecting any device you can scan it with any best antivirus. Virus along with malware files also makes your computer load slow and for this, using any best antivirus is the best idea for it. Best antivirus will find that kind of files and removes them instantly which can help to protect your computer from being lazy. 

5. Restart Your Computer and Do a Speed Test.

After doing these all things, your computer needs a restart. Because when you restart your computer it saves all the changes which you've done. This is the reason why pros always tell to shut down your computer correctly, don't plug out the switch directly and after restarting your computer do a speed test in order to know that how much speed is increased in your computer.
