Ways to Accelerate the Performance of Your Computer or Laptop

This post discusses how to speed up the performance of a computer / laptop. Having a slow computer is certainly very test our patience.
No wonder if some people are very annoyed when the task sokolah / office with computers so slow. Many of those who prefer to do the work in the cafe rather than use super slow computer performance.
Actually, to overcome the computer / laptop which tends increasingly slow, you only need to perform routine maintenance and also did some things that I will explain one by one in this article.

Okey straight out, to overcome the performance of your computer / laptop is becoming increasingly slow course, do a few things below to help speed up the performance of your computer / laptop.
1. Please RAM and hard drive capacity

Too heavy multitasking process which led to the performance of a computer / laptop to be slow. Adding RAM capacity becomes larger again are the best choices to expedite the performance of a computer. Note also the capacity of your hard drive. If it is almost full (eg remaining 10GB), do not be surprised if your computer / laptop slowed only. I suggest you enlarge the capacity of the hard drive and if it has surplus funds, it would not hurt to buy SSD to improve the performance of your computer / laptop. 
2. Delete temporary files (bins) in the Recycle Bin 
Temporary file (trash) can slow the performance of a computer / laptop, so it would be nice if you delete it. First check the file, if it is really not necessary, please delete by right-clicking the Recycle Bin icon and select Empty Recycle Bin. 
Alternative software that you can use is CCleaner, the software can also delete temporary files contained on the browser. 
3. Uninstall unnecessary programs
For what install programs that are not used. Unfortunately, if installed a program that simply throwing away your hard disk space.
To uninstall a program, you can do so via Start> Control Panel> Uninstall a program and then uninstall unused programs / important.
4. Minimize programs that run on Startup
The more programs that run on startup to be one factor that causes a computer's performance decreases. I suggest you to disable any programs that really are not important and do not need to run at startup by pressing the Win key + R> type msconfig> select the Startup tab and then uncheck the programs you want to disable.
To make it easier, you can also use CCleaner to disable programs that run at startup.
5. Do not forget to install Antivirus

Make sure you have installed antivirus. As we know that the average viruses including malware and spyware cause the performance of a slow computer and can also damage the data / file us. In addition, you should install antivirus right, not an antivirus that actually slow the performance of your computer / laptop.
6. Custom Virtual Memory
Although the role is not as big as RAM, virtual memory can help improve your computer's performance. To regulate how much virtual memory you use, go to Control Panel> System and Security> System or can by pressing the Windows key + Pause / Break. Then select Advanced system settings.

 Move to the Advanced tab, then select Settings from the menu Performance.
Move again to the Advanced tab, then select Change in the Virtual memory menu.
Uncheck Automatically manage paging file size for all drives. Then select Custom size and determine how much virtual memory that is desired. For maximum size you can fill in the Initial size 2X. Then select Set, then select OK.
Note: For maximum size should not be 2X initial size, it only estimates.

7. Minimize the use of visual effects
The more visual effects are used, the better to see your desktop. And the need to underline, the slower the performance of your computer when there are a lot of visual effects running.
For that you should minimize the use of visual effects on your desktop in the following ways:
Go to Control Panel> System and Security> System, and then select Advanced system settings that are in the top left corner of the System window.
advanced system settings

Move to the Advanced tab, then select Settings from the menu Performance.
On the Visual Effects tab, and uncheck please select custom visual effects that are not needed. You can see the settings that I use visual effects shown in the figure below. If there are visual effects that usually appears, but does not appear, please return to the default.
Note:
-
Select Let Windows choose what's best for my computer, if you want the windows alone will determine what visual effects are the best for your computer.
-
Select Adjust for best appearance, if you want your desktop to look the most good. But the impact is going to make angry, the computer becomes more slow.
-
Select Adjust for best performance, if you want your computer in a good performance. But get ready for it, your eyes to be 'tortured', because your desktop zoom going bad really. But this option is well suited for gaming.

This tool is useful for removing temporary files on each drive. So you can choose whichever drive you want to clean from temporary files. To use this tool, please right-click the drive you want to clean> select Properties and then select Disk Cleanup.

9. Use the Disk Defragmenter 

Fragmentation on the data to make your drive to work harder, of course it makes the computer's performance goes down. Therefore, you are advised to use Disk Defragmenter to rearrange the fragmented data. You can use this tool by right-clicking the drive you want defrag> select Properties> then select Defragment now on the Tools tab. 

10. Remove non-essential gadget on the desktop
Gadgets installed on the desktop becomes one of the things that affect the performance of a computer. I suggest you remove bernar gadget that really are not important, but if your computer has a high specification may install gadgets like this do not feel the effect on computer performance.
