Why Is My Computer Slow?
Your PC slowing down can be caused by many reasons. For example; The storage space of your local disk may be too full, your hardware cards may not be up to date, your computer case may be clean, etc.
How Do I Speed Up a Slowing Computer
1-) Delete Unnecessary Files
- First of all, I suggest you delete anything unnecessary, games you haven't played, unnecessary videos, songs, etc. etc. Find and delete whatever is unnecessary.
- You can delete unnecessary files on your computer with CCleaner application to free up some more space on hard disk or ssd.
- Another method is to go to the Start search section, type% temp%, enter the file that comes before you and delete all the files it contains. The contents of the file are all cached cookie files. A few files may not be deleted from them because there may be an open cookie file at the back.
- In the same way, we open the program by typing run in the Start search section. We write prefetch in the search section and press enter. We will see a warning message and continue by saying continue. By deleting all of the files we encounter, we can relieve our computer to some extent. So what is a prefetch file? The Prefetch folder is a collection of files that are scheduled to be run by the system when you open a software or run a game file. If you have previously opened a program while the computer was on, the information is written there. So there is no harm in deleting one.
- Delete previously downloaded files from Downloads section.
2-) Replace Insufficient Parts on Your Computer
If your computer has old parts and an operating system such as Windows 10, all you have to do is change the parts on your computer or install the Windows 7 operating system on your computer. Because if you have an old computer and try to use a Windows 10 operating system suitable for the new generation, your computer will be very tiring.
3-) Enable Updates
- Make sure your computer is up to date. A computer that has not been updated can cause a slowdown.
- To check for updates, you can check if an update is available by typing Check for Updates in the Start search field.
4-) Clean Viruses
