Ways to keep your Windows 10 fast

Wondering that why your computer has slow done? Or why are having observing malicious activity in your system. Then this post will help you to solve your problem.

When I consider that my system is not working properly?

We need to understand whether their is any impact in our system. This can be checked by the following steps:

• If you see that an app has installed automatically without your consent.
• You are having trouble in loading applications that were previously loading.
• Performance of your system has been affected severly.
• You are not able to use removable devices such as pendrives.(It is getting corrupt.)
• Multiples files are created which is possible due to virus attack.

Steps to be taken

Now when we understood that our system is undergoing some issues, we can do the following things:-

1.  Clear temporary files 

When we use applications, temporary files are created automatically for properly handling computer resources. Later we don't require them so we can remove them. To remove them we can go to RUN by pressing WIN+r or search run. In the run dialog box type %temp%  and hit enter.

A folder containing temporary files will open. Delete all the files present in the folder. You may not be able to delete all files at the same time. This is because some files might be used by applications at that time or running in background. So close all applications before deleting.

2.  Run Disk Cleanup

This is one more tool to remove files. To use it, open This PC from desktop. Now right click on local drive C. Click on Disk Cleanup under General Tab. Now you can delete files according to your choice.

Warning: Delete files carefully so that you don't miss your important files.{alertWarning}

If you have updating your Windows 10(Feature Update) then you should do the following in Disk Cleanup.

• Click on Clean up System files.

• Delete Windows Upgrade logs files along with other unwanted files.

This would remove previously old Windows 10 OS files that are not important.

3.  Install Antivirus 

This is the biggest reason why a system gets infected. You must install a good antivirus or you are prone to malware attacks. Now a days Windows already comes with a preinstalled Windows Defender. That is recommended for basic users who use their system less frequently. For others a good security suite is strongly recommended. Here are some good antivirus:-

• Quick Heal Antivirus- I personally recommend Quick Heal for your PC. Though it is more expensive than other available antivirus, the services offered by Quick Heal is unmatched

          Buy Quick Heal

• McAfee Antivirus-One of the most popular antivirus. You can get it under 200 rupees only. You will get digital copy on your mail within 2 hours.

           Buy Link

•  K7 Antivirus- Build in India, K7 offers award winning security solutions for PC and mobile. It is rightly referred as Indian antivirus with International Standards. 

          Buy Link

•  Kaspersky Antivirus- Kaspersky offers essential protection over all types of malwares.

4. Optimize for performance

Trouble in loading aero animations? Windows 10 focuses on best appearance for the user. This might result in slow loading in your system. You can optimize your system for performance. 

To set this follow the following steps:

• In the search bar in the taskbar, type appearance and then select Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows.
• On the Visual Effects tab, select Adjust for best performance > Apply.
• Restart your PC and see if this speeds up your computer.

5. Reset Your Windows

There are possible instances that a person might still face other problems in the system even after using Step 1, 2 and 3. In that case you should format your windows and reinstall it. Before formatting make a backup of all your important files and folders.
