Most common questions used to investigate

Have you tried uninstalling unnecessary software on your computer?

Have you tried increasing your PC’s RAM?

Common conclusions

Some applications that aren’t used anymore must be deleted as it may only take up your computer system. Free up your disk space and restart your PC for a more favorable performance.

Increasing the PC’s RAM will help speed up its performance. If you don’t know how to do it, you can bring your PC to a friend who knows how, or better yet, to a professional shop to have more RAM installed.

A startup solid-state drive can go a long way as it takes some of the pressure from the processor. It helps make your PC run faster even when you’re opening or running multiple applications in one go. You can also purchase an external drive to connect to your PC to save space and boost the apps.

Make sure you are using a fast browser and empty the cache to maximize its speed. A full cache may slow down your PC, especially if it hasn’t been emptied for a while.

Consider running a cleaning tool to keep the hidden files on your PC clean and organized. You can use free tools such as CCleaner or Malwarebytes.

Install a current anti-virus software and run it on your PC to detect a hidden virus or ransomware file. Avoid going to malicious websites or installing insecure applications to prevent your PC from viruses.

Placing your PC in a well-ventilated area is important to avoid overheating. In that case, you can clean your PC every six months if it gets dusty.

Position your PC in an area away from dust particles, wet or warm places. These factors will easily weaken your PC performance and damage it in the long run.
