6 basic steps to keep a Computer running fast

Why does it actually happen?

It’s because of the temporary files and garbage registry values added to the system through various ways like installing new software, adding and deleting files from hard disk, downloading items from internet.

So here, I am sharing 6 basic steps to get your PC running faster and smoother.

#1. Remove unwanted software

Go to control panel.
Then add/remove programs.
Now uninstall the software which you don’t need.




2. Update Antivirus Software

Update the antivirus software you have on your PC regularly.
Then perform a full system scan so as to remove all the malware from your system.

3. Check when you need to use Disk Fragmenter

Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Defragmenter.
Analyse each of the partitions (by right-clicking on each of the drives and selecting analyse).
Defragment the ones which requires defragmentation as shown by the message.

4. Delete Temporary files

Go to start->run.
Then enter “%temp%” (without quotes) and hit enter.
A windows comes up. Select and delete all the files in it. (I had around 200 files in it).

#5. Delete Prefetch files

Then enter “prefetch” (without quotes) and hit enter.
Now select all files and delete them.(I deleted all my 60 files).

#6. Deal with Registry Errors

Download CCleaner software from http://www.ccleaner.com/
and install it.
Now open CCleaner and go to registry.



Then click on “scan for issues”. Wait till the scanning is complete.
A list of many registry errors will come up.
Select all the issues. Now click on “fix selected issues”.and then confirm it.

So now our registry garbage is also cleaned.

Finally, restart your PC and notice the changes in terms of speed yourself.

I noticed a tremendous change following these steps. Now, my PC is 10 times much faster than before.

There are thus, many career options that are available for any youngster who has dreams to join the merchant navy. The deck officers include the captain, chief officer, second officer, third officer and other junior officers. The engine department consists of the chief engineer, radio officer, electrical officer and junior engineers. The service department manages the kitchen, laundry, medical and other services.
