One
might be wondering why his/her computer is running considerably at the lowest
speed! No one likes this ugly situation, isn’t it? Yea, that is very correct.
But the question to ask oneself is this, what I’m I doing that is slowing down
my computer and what are the steps to be taken to tackle this frustrating
situation. Actually and frankly speaking, there are a lot of measures that can
be taken to speed up your computer. In this post, I am going to explain some of
the steps and ways you can take to speed up your computer. Not to waste your
time, let us start right away.
1. AVOID RUNNING MANY PROGRAMS
AT THE SAME TIME
This
might sound funny, but it is true. As the saying goes thus, “you cannot eat
your cake and still have it”. In other word, it is not advisable to open a lot
of programs down at the same time. Let us examine this; you open 15 tabs when
browsing the internet, you also open 10 programs down as well, what a stuff! For example, antivirus and big program like
Adobe Dreamweaver is not too wise to be running together while still browsing.
So, when you know you are done with a program, close it and avoid opening many
program at the same time because, this will slow down your computer and will
now allow for the fast and speedy computer you always want.
2. DELETE UNWANTED
FILES, FOLDERS AND PROGRAM
When
you
know you don’t want a particular file, folder or program you previously installed anymore, the best thing to do is to delete them. If you don’t know, every file in your computer takes its own percentage in the system.

Delete a program you
don’t want any more to free your system and give a room for fast and speedy
computer which you dream of.
3. ALWAYS UPDATE THE
PROGRAMS IN YOUR COMPUTER
It
might surprise you that
it not so advisable and good when you refuse to update
the software in your system. Why? The reason is that day in day out, software
manufacturers always have the new feature that has to do with their software on
their various websites. Using old program or software on a new machine or
vice-versa may not do well with your system as far as speed is concerned.
4. INCREASE/UPGRADE
YOUR SYSTEM MEMORY
Do
you know that nearly everyday new software comes into the technology-market? As
a result it will be somehow “stressful “for an old system to run a new
innovation/software. If you want your computer to run well and increase the
speed of your computer, it is strongly advised to upgrade your computer memory.
Take for instance, if your computer default memory is 1 or 2GB when you bought
it, you can increase it to 4GB to be able to compete with new software/innovation.
5. DISABLE THE
START-UP PROGRAMS YOU DON’T REALLY NEED
By
default, some programs have been designed to boot with the Windows when
computer starts. Though good to some extent, but it might not speed up your
computer booting. In the future here, I am going to write a post on how you can
disable some programs that automatically boot with the operating system. Watch
out for it!
6. DISK
CLEANUP
Disk
Cleanup is very important to speed up your computer. It is a free arrangement
that comes with your computer. It comes free with Windows and will get rid of
the rest of the unwanted/junk files that you have in your hard-disk. To do the
disk clean up, do the following
-GO TO ACCESSORIES
-SYSTEM TOOLS
-DISK CLEANUP
or
if this description/steps of the disk clean up mentioned up here doesn’t suit
the kind of windows you are using, don’t mind, just go to the control panel and
look for the search bar and type “disk clean-up”…Then, follow the instruction
to finish.
These
are little ways I have come up with to increase the speed of your computer. I
do hope you find this useful and helpful. In case. You know any other ways to
speed up computer that is not too technical and complicated, feel free to say
your mind through comment or by e-mail.
