version of Windows, Firefox or susceptive version of Java. So be sure to
keep your software updated, to do this manually check for updated or
set it automatically install updates or, at least, inform you of them.
2. Keep Drive and Windows File System Healthy
Is your PC older than you need to give your hard drive a periodic
checkup? This is necessary to maintain your PC as newer. Windows had
the utility that can run from the command line or user interface that
verify the disk for errors and attempt to repair them. This utility inspects
all the important system files on PC, including DLL files. So know how to
run it.
 Launch the Command Prompt as administrator and type: sfc
/scannow and press Enter.
 After that, system scanning starts and delivers the report. This will take
time as per the size of your drive and hardware.
3. Back Up Data Regularly
This is also necessary to maintain your PC. Backup your data is
important and this helps to avoid losing precious files, photos, videos
and many others valuable stuff.
Follow the three steps to back up your important stuff:
Have local backup of important files on an external drive.

Dropbox.

This will remove the unused programs easily without making use of any third party
software.
5. Clean Up Your Equipment
The old model desktop computers collect lots of dust
internally and this also makes the PC run slow and make
your CPU overheat. You make use of the gas duster to blow
out the dust, unplug the power cord before taking off the
case cover it up. Make sure not to point the canned air too
close at internal parts as it can make some of them come
loose.
If you are using laptop then this also gather dust, modern
laptops are not meant to come apart easily but you need to
clean it too. To do so first take the screw out of the bottom
and unplug the power and remove the battery first and get
at the internal parts with canned air. Since if you are not
sure then it is recommended check the service manual or
manufacture’s site for instructions or else consults a tech
professional to clean it or if you are suspect it’s overheating.
6. Keep Drivers Up To Date

user need to remember. This is healthy and
makes your PC works optimally. So try to
keep your hardware drivers updated you can
manually check it from the manufacturer’s
website for the compatible drivers. Update
your graphic drivers, NVIDIA, AMD; Update

install the latest.

virus and malware that infiltrates into your PC and damage the PC
internally. Update your graphic drivers, NVIDIA, AMD; Update your
hardware drivers with Windows Update you can set it to automatically
download and install the latest for you. Make use of anti-malware software
for the thorough protection.
8. Empty Recycle Bin Data
Regularly
By default Microsoft Windows all
versions use up to 10% of computer
available disk space to save most recently
deleted files. This is because it allows
users to recover the files that have been
accidentally deleted. So to get more space
empty recycle bin or permanently deleted
files from hard drive that are not needed
it future.
To do so, right-click the Recycle Bin
icon and select Empty Recycle Bin
from the drop-down menu. This will free
up space and even optimize the
performance of the PC.
9. Power Down Your Laptop Before Moving
it Around, and At Night.
It is important because this leads corruption and heavy loss.
Below see some points to know why it is to power off your
laptop.
To avoid long boot-up times, you can also put your
computer into Sleep, Standby or Hibernate modes.
Hard drive store data and is a series of spinning discs with
a read/write head and transporting or moving laptop while
powered on can cause corruption to the hard drive
Keeping laptop on for whole night shorten the life of the
hardware. So when not in use shut down your computer or
put it into sleep or hibernate to extend the life of your
hardware.
10. Defragment and Check Your Hard Drive For Errors Regularly
This is the last but not the least, to maintain the integrity of your data there
are two hard drive tests that user should run at least once a month. The first
one is to Defragment your hard drive and secondly is to perform Check
Disk utility. Windows have a built-in utility Defragmenter and Check Disk
Utility.

select Tools. After that click on “Defragment Now,” This process must
be scheduled as an automatic task once a week. It will noticeably make the
system faster.
Secondly to perform Check disk utility, verify hard drive volumes for
problems and attempts to repair them. To run the check disk utility go to
the Error-checking section and press the Check now Button
