5 tips to speed up your PC

If you bought the computer after a long reflection and a careful choice but, despite this, it begins to seem no longer as good as the first months, this article is for you.

It is not always necessary to resort to definitive actions, such as replacing it or changing components of the computer itself, also committing maintenance costs that could be saved. Sometimes the solutions are really simple and could fix the problem for you without any intervention.

Let's see together how to speed up the PC with these 5 tips for those who want to restore the functions of their device in the best possible way.

1. Try to update

Software updates are essential as, in addition to offering new functions, they allow the resolution of some errors that are often part of the slowdown of the computer. Keeping up with updates therefore allows us to increase PC performance by partially solving our problem.

Keeping the software of our device updated will therefore allow us to have new features, to improve the security of our device but above all, to solve some problems that cause the slowdown of even the simplest actions, as well as the startup of the computer itself, often the cause of unease.

2. Prevent some programs from starting.

As we have mentioned, the slowdown problem often occurs when the PC is turned on, creating difficulties especially in situations in which the computer should be "ready to use". One solution might be to prevent some programs from starting automatically when turned on.

To carry out this maintenance action it will be enough for the Windows system to simply go to "task management" and then "start", disabling the programs that appear activated.

As far as IOS is concerned, these programs must be disabled from the "system preferences" section and then in "login elements" which are found in "users and groups" by selecting your account.

In this way the computer should lighten its RAM when it is turned on, as part of it will not be busy starting these programs.

3. Delete programs that are not used

We had already talked about it in the previous article on the full memory of the mobile phone, often useless files weigh down our devices.

So remember to uninstall the programs that, trivially, you do not need.

It would seem an obvious measure, instead we are often lazily led to ignore some installed programs or files that are not used or that have not been needed for some time.

4. Install an antivirus

Viruses, as we know, are not friends with our computers, which is why it would be better to keep them away. Often they invade and act on the operating system by occupying part of the RAM, as well as damaging files and performance. To prevent these problems it is necessary and sufficient to install an antivirus in order to increase the speed of the computer, but also to avoid much more serious problems.

These programs protect our computers from virus threats, however, it must be emphasized that it is necessary, even in this case, to be careful: the programs must be regularly updated, in order to allow them to function correctly and above all to prevent them from being disabled. due to an old version. Do not forget that it is also a good idea to manually scan the system, using the antivirus we have installed in order to check that the computer has not been attacked by viruses or, if it were, to be able to find them and be able to delete them first. that the computer itself is compromised.

5. Restore the system

We have seen so far how to behave in case of a slowdown of the computer by acting on it and on the programs that are inside it but if this is not enough, we may be forced to act more directly.

In this case it may be necessary to restore the system of our computer, in order to permanently eliminate any problem that prevents the correct functioning of the system itself. Any slowdown that causes us difficulties will thus be permanently eliminated.

These are just some of the simpler solutions that allow us to restore the complete functions of our computer without the need to install secondary programs. Thanks to these simple and basic steps you will be able to independently solve and prevent problems with your computer.
