If you suffer a Windows slow and have the budget to buy an SSD or add a couple of extra gigabytes of RAM, your problem is easily solved when upgrading a bit in the hardware your PC. However, this is not an option for many people, so the following is play around with some system settings to better use of resources with those that accounts .

in the case of Windows 10 are several things that can go off to make us better in a somewhat modest team. If you saw forced to upgrade to the new system of Microsoft, or you did it because you wanted to try something new and end up with a less rapid system you wish, you may have to do with some features of Windows 10 that fulfill more aesthetic functions otherwise and that disabling can relieve some of the stress on your machine.

in the new window, select the tab Visual effects and although you can enable and disable effects individually, I recommend that you disable all, you can do so by checking the box that says Set for best performance . You feel that your computer works much faster, but look a little less beautiful without animations and ornaments.

Goodbye Cortana

Getting rid of personal assistant Microsoft can also help you out a with little system performance, plus if you do not like that Cortana has access to such personal information, you will prefer to disable it completely. To do this click in the search box on the taskbar and then click the button shaped nut clockwise and off Cortana.

You can also disable the search history of the device and search line. In fact, you can get rid completely of the search panel by right clicking on the taskbar, then “ search , and then select” hidden “.”

Goodbye slow internet

Windows 10 has a rather annoying features that turns your computer into a server update, so that is constantly using your connection send content to other computers with Windows 10. This can slow down your internet speed and make a very unhappy person without knowing it.

to disable it, open the configuration panel (press the Windows key + I ), select Update and Security & gt; Windows Update & gt; Advanced Options & gt; Choose the way you want updates are delivered and off the “ Updates more than one place .



Goodbye startup programs

task manager

The latter is a fairly simple “trick” and know that many people still apply, but something great to prevent Windows takes a long time to start is disable all programs that open automatically when you turn on your computer . this opens the Task Manager (right click on the button Windows startup and select the option from the dropdown menu), click More details , and select Home tab.

in this window a list of all programs that start automatically with Windows is displayed, if enabled or not, and the level of impact on the system. My recommendation: deactivates all, nothing that appears there is crucial to the operation of your computer, unless you know you want an application to always start with Windows, say goodbye. Your next reboot will be significantly faster.



Goodbye junk files

freeing disk space

Something that causes your computer running slow usually the number of files you have on your hard drive, if it is almost to bursting, the browser will always take longer to open folders or searching. Attempting to back up in another medium which need not be there, and deletes unnecessary things. Remember to empty your recycle bin occasionally, some people have occupied more space there than in your documents folder. Windows also has its own tool called Disk Cleanup , simply press the start button and type those words until the result appears. You can use it to release a few megabytes.

Personally I prefer a third-party tool like CCleaner to get rid of all those junk data that downloads each time browsing the Internet, from cookies to thumbnails picture cache of the most visited sites.
