4 Excellent Windows 10 Tweaks to Speed up Slow Computer
Be it the user-friendly interface, powerful hardware, or the voice control integration with
Cortana; there’s enough in Windows 10 to impress its users. However, as the years pass, an
abundant amount of files and programs start piling up in the system’s drives, making your
Windows take more time to process all this. No need to worry though! There are some easy yet
excellent software tweaks that never fail to improve Windows 10 performance in an instant.
Let’s have a look!
Tone Down the Visual Effects
All those glitzy animations, shadows and visual effects in Windows are certainly easy on eyes
but can waste a lot of system resources, making it slow. If your Windows 10 is not running at
your desired speed, trading these graphics for an improved performance is going to save a little
extra speed.
In order to apply this tweak, do as follows:
 Head to the taskbar, type “system.cpl” in the search bar and hit Enter
 Click Taskbar on the appeared list
 Switch to Advanced tab
 Click Settings button under the Performance heading
 Check the box next to Adjust for Best Performance
Manage Automatic App Launches
While your computer is starting up, a number of programs and apps also launch at the same time
to ensure these applications are available for use without delay. But the irony is that the process
that is meant to save your time instead makes your Windows booting sluggish.
In order to make your system launch faster, it’s better that you limit these apps and processes by
disabling unnecessary background startup programs. Make it possible by right clicking on the
blank space of the taskbar and selecting Task Manager. Head to the Startup tab and sift out
the apps that are unnecessary and taking large space. Click on them individually and select
Disable.
These disabled applications and programs will not get removed from your computer; they will
just not start up at the Windows launch.
Clean up the Registry
Registry tracks and administers everything on your Windows, including the programs you install
and the websites you visit. However, over time registry gets messed up when Windows doesn’t
clean it up properly. For instance, sometimes you see errors from programs that no longer exist
on your system. All this leads to system slowdown.
Before you set up to take care of this tweak by yourself, it’s imperative to know that system
registry is a complex thing. Unless you’re an expert, you can’t handle it perfectly. Instead, you
can take help from third-party software to do the task for you. There are plenty of registry
cleaner programs that can do the work for you. Simply, download the software, follow the
instructions that it comes with, and clean up all the mess from your Windows 10 that’s
responsible for dropping your computer’s speed.
Turn Off Indexing
Windows Indexing feature is meant to index and repair the record of the files stored on your hard
drive, in order to present you with prompt results when you’re searching for a file. However, this
is a heavy process and takes a lot of system resources, making your Windows sluggish.
Hence, it’s recommended to disable this feature on your Windows 10 if you don’t use the search
bar often. This will increase PC performance pretty dramatically. Follow the instructions below
to learn how you can do that:
 Head to Start button and select Control Panel from the list
 Double-click “Add/Remove Programs”
 Click “Add/Remove Windows Components” on the left bar.
 When the next screen appears, navigate to the “Indexing Services” components
 Uncheck the box next to the Indexing Services option
 Click Next > Finish
Once disabled, Indexing service cannot help you look for your desired stuff on your computer.
So, if you think you should have a helping hand, you can download and install a light-weight,
third-party app to help you find the files and folders you wish for.
Thank you!
