This is one of the most important tasks you need to do every now and then. Most people do not know what temporary files are. Temporary files are the files that store information temporarily for either a program, download files, web browser and so on. These files are temporarily there until you do any action to complete it by moving the certain files to a folder. Otherwise these files will be in the temporary folder forever and clog up the system.

Clean/Uninstall Unused Application or Software

There is always a software or application that you have not used since you downloaded it to your system. Try cleaning or uninstalling unused applications and software.

Deleting the software, deleting the extra anti-virus software, deleting unnecessary software can help speed your computer. These software take space, use computer memory, run down processing speed and make disk usages to 100%.

Check CPU Usage

Always check CPU usage before deleting software that you need. Sometimes certain software may not work properly with certain processors. Some software required a higher performing processor. Running two different higher performing processes may slow down your computer. Check if you are using any software requiring more processor speed. Either removing the software from the system or using it while other applications are not used. This may increase the speed of slow computers.

Check Hard Drive Usage or Upgrade Hard Drive

Have you ever changed your hard drive since you bought your computer? Have you noticed your computer was slowing down eventually? Have you checked your computer temperature while it was running? Checking hard drive speed, hard drive performance, hard drive age will determine if you will need a hard drive replacement in your computer. Some computers will tell you if there is a problem with your computer hard drive. Some computer hard drive crash without telling you there was a faulty hard drive. Hard drives play a vital role on slow computers. RAM, and CPU also play a major role. However, Hard drive in your computer has a moving part inside and the most used part inside a computer. That is why replacing a hard drive may fix your slow computer.

Check RAM Usage or Upgrade RAM/Memory

RAM or memory inside the computer also impact the speed of the computer. Lower RAM meaning you cannot use or computer will slow down while  using large programs. Photoshop, video editor, AutoCAD and so on are some of the software required larger RAM memory in your computer. Imagine RAM as a table where you do work; Bigger table you can do many work at a same time, smaller table you can only do some work. If you have small tablet but you need to finish large job it will take time to complete that job. Find out if you need a higher size RAM memory to fix your slow computer.
