If you’re looking to make your PC run faster, but are by no means a computer expert, then it’s important that you know exactly what to do to improve the speed of your PC. There are many ways you can boost the speed of your system, but this tutorial will show you exactly how to do it in the most reliable and easy-to-do method. Here’s what you need to do…

If you store a lot of files in “My Documents” or “My Downloads” folders – then just browse to them, select them and press SHIFT & DELETE to remove them from your PC. Obviously don’t delete any files you need, but if you have downloaded various files from the Internet, it’s advisable that you remove them. This can actually improve the load time of your PC, as each time Windows loads, it performs “hard drive indexing” which is where it takes note of all the files on your drives to allow it to search them faster. The more files that are on your PC, the longer this process takes, slowing your system down.
