Top 10 PC Cleanup Tips

What regular things can you do to keep your PC running in new condition?

I recommend the following tips for regular maintenance:
  • Defragment your hard drive weekly
  • Use ScanDisk to search for and fix hard drive problems
  • Clean out your temporary files folder
  • Check the number of applications loading at startup, disable any unnecessary apps
  • Keep your computer fans clear of dust, hair and debris, make sure airflow is good so your hardware doesn't overheat causing errors
  • Run a weekly spyware scan to ensure you haven't picked anything up while surfing or downloading

  • Reboot at least once a week to clear any fragments of non-running programs
  • Turn on Windows Automatic Updates to ensure you have the latest performance patches and hardware driver updates
  • Clean your Internet Explorer cache and temp files

  • Ensure there are no large files stored on your Windows desktop, these can slow performance dramatically
