Our computer is the lifeblood of our business. When it is not in a tip-top condition, we lose clients and income opportunities.
Of course, we do not want that situation to happen. So, here are some basic steps to boost our computer’s efficiency to make them up and running like the day they came from the store.
1. Uninstall the programs that serve no purpose.
Go to START menu > Control Panel > Programs > Program and Features
Under the Program and Features button, you will see the “Uninstall a Program” option and from there, your computer will give the list of programs installed. Choose the program you want to delete.
2. Select the programs that should run at startup.
Right-click on a space on the taskbar and select Task Manager. Under “Task Manager”, click the “Startup” tab.
Look through the list of programs that are enabled to run during startup. Hit “Disable” on those that you want to get rid of.
3. Clean your computer’s temporary files regularly.
Press the “Windows” icon + R on your keyboard. Type in %temp% and hit Enter. It will display all the files stored in your Temporary Folder.
Delete all the files and if it prompts you that some items cannot be deleted, skip the file/s.
4. Use the Ccleaner app for Windows computer to perform PC cleanup.
Go “Start” menu > CcCleaner > Analyse > Clean All. Your PC is “feeling fresh” after this process.
These are just some of the basic steps to make your PC load faster, which will guarantee the optimum performance of your PC.

CC cleaner is my favorite! I found in the past a lot of other cleaners seem to just add additional bogging down to the system and are often really annoying when they pop up constantly asking you to clean your PC. Excellent tips, I totally need to sit down and disable the un-needed things that are going on at startup!
