Is your System Running Too Slow..??

Is your system speed bugging you. Is it running too slow even though you have a good system configuration. Mostly this happens due to the the temp files which gets created, or due to the fragmentation in the Hard Disk or could be the fragmentation of registry, the unwanted entries in the same.

Follow the below instructions and this should improve the system performance.

1) Cleaning up the Temporary files and also the unwanted registry entries. If you search online you would find many tools for the same. My recommendation would be CCLEANER. A very good tool.

You can download the latest version from here.

Run the tool and it should show you an option to run the cleaner, click on the same.

Once done then click on the Registry option and click on Scan for issues, and later click on Fix issues. As soon this is done you will see a good amount of performance difference.

2) Run the System Defragmentation. This is a tool from Windows and basically it just defragment the fragmented files, which increases the Read/Write ability to the Hard Disk.

Defragmentation in XP
Click on Start > Run and typ "Dfrg.msc" without quotes.
Select a volume and click on Defragment Disk

Defragmentation in Win 7
Click on Start and type Disk Defragmenter in the search
Select a volume and click on Defragment Disk

Defragmentation in Win 8
Click on Start and in search type "defragment"
In the settings you will find “Defragment Your Hard Drive” and click on it.
Select the Drive you want to defragment and click on Optimize.

3) Delete the empty folders/left over folders of uninstalled Application.

For this I found an apllication named RED (Remove Empty Directories.) When you run the tool it will scan the drive for all possible empty directories which is not linked to any applications. Cleaning this also improves the performance well.
