In today's digital age, almost everyone uses a laptop. A common problem with laptops is that they become slow over time. Gradually, laptops also start hanging. In such a situation, we often look for ways to prevent the laptop from slowing down. On the other hand, if a laptop has become slow and is constantly hanging, then the search for ways to revive it continues. Today we are going to tell you 5 such ways with the help of which you will be able to make your slow laptop as fast as new again.
When you turn on your laptop, there are many programs that start automatically. These programs keep running in the background and slow down your system. If many programs start running automatically on your laptop, then you can close them in this way.
To close these startup programs, open Task Manager (press Ctrl + Shift + Esc),
Then go to the "Startup" tab and "Disable" the programs that are not needed.
This will reduce the boot time of your laptop and the system will start quickly. Also, these programs will stop running in the background.
Over time, many temporary files and caches get stored in Windows on your laptop. These files gradually slow down the system. To delete them,
Step 1: Go to Run (Win + R)
Step 2: Type %temp%
Step 3: Delete all the files in the folder.
You can also use Disk Cleanup tool for this purpose. This is an easy way to increase the speed of your laptop
If your laptop hangs a lot or runs slow or takes a lot of time to complete even simple tasks, then it may be that its RAM is low. If you upgrade the RAM of your laptop, then the laptop will also work better in multitasking. Experts recommend at least 8GB RAM for a laptop. Please note that upgrading RAM can be a bit technical, so take the help of an expert.
If your laptop uses HDD storage, then you can upgrade its storage to SSD (Solid State Drive). Data is read and written fast in SSD, which greatly increases boot time, app loading and file transfer speed. This greatly improves the overall performance of the laptop.
Sometimes viruses or malware slow down the speed of the system. Use a good antivirus and keep scanning your system from time to time. If you do not want to spend money, Windows Defender can also be a good free option. Periodic scanning will remove dangerous files and the system will feel lighter.
