Answer 1

I think all you needto do is do a disk clean-up, then a disk defragmentation. That sounds complicated, but it really is easy. I did this and it compressed files that are hardly ever used , freeing up disk space.Defragmenting means this. When you download programs & software & games etc, after a while when you want something downloaded, there isn't room in one place on your disk to put it( or write it), so it fragments the download, putting parts of it all over, thus when you want to bring up that program, it slows down the computer, because it has to gather all the fragmented pieces of the program before it can bring it up. Defragmenting brings all these pieces back in one place for as many programs as it can. To do the Disk clean up: Go to Start menu > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleaner & Defragmenter. Do the clean up first, then the other, with no programs running at all. I was amazed how much space on the disk was gained by doing these things.

Do you utilize an anti-spyware and adware/spy ware software? I realize there are a few well loose ones available in the market. I use spybot, however it is not the one well one. You do even have an antivirus, correct? I use McAfee and it additionally has a constructed-in anti-sypware/spy ware as good. You will have to additionally defrag your laptop and that are supposed to absolutely be aspect of the program you have already got. To uncover mine, I click on on Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools after which Disk Defragmenter. Using defrag can relatively support to pace it up. Disk cleanup is placed within the identical situation, a minimum of on my laptop. Sorry if none of this helped. Good success!

Besides the suggestion to defrag the hard drive and getting rid of programs that start up at boot time that aren't really necessary, you might want to consider a free program called "Advanced Windows Care Personal", which is available at the below link. Look for the "Get Freebie" button. Download it, install it, and run it. It's truly an excellent program to clean up "trash" that's not necessary. Good luck.
