Win2000 optimization tips: for Win2000 weight loss

Skills | optimization

Win2000 's system and SYSTEM32 directories have a large number of DLL files that are shared by systems or application software. Because software is often installed and uninstalled, some DLL files are left in these directories, which not only occupy hard disk space, but also reduce the speed of the system. You can delete the following methods: In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedDLLs, the DLL path information about the software share is stored. The item value of each DLL file indicates that it has been shared by several applications, and if the software has been uninstalled with a value of 0, it is not shared by any software and can be deleted before the corresponding DLL file is deleted.

Unused fonts, help documents are also deleted first with W i n z i p to the C: \windows\fonts the entire directory into a file, properly saved, and then in C: \windows\fonts Delete all unused fonts, only to retain Arial, Marlett, Mic Osoft Scansserif Regular, Mingliu&pmingliu, modern, Ms Outlook, Ms Serif8,10,12, Script, Simsun&nsimsun, Tahoma, Times New Roman, song body, imitation, italics and other fonts, the need for other fonts, and then use WinZip to open the compressed file, the corresponding font to expand into the fonts directory.

For users who are already skilled in using Win2000, you can delete the Help folder, first use WinZip to compress the C:\Windows\HELP entire directory into a file, properly save, and then delete all in C: \Windows\Help. hlp and. chm files, and then expand the compressed file when needed.

Delete file garbage Win2000 use a long time, you will accumulate a large number of TMP, BAK, log, old, txt and other temporary files, concentrated in C:\Windows\temp, C: \documents and Settings\ your username \local Settings\Temp, C:\Documents AndS e t i n g s \ your username \ L o C a lsettings\temporary Internet files (IE temporary files directory), you can put the files in these directories full Department to improve system performance.

Clear registry garbage To install a software, the registry must add some items accordingly. When the software is deleted, such as deleting the folder where the software is located, or reinstalling it in Add/Remove Programs, some software registration information also depends on the registry, in the long run, in the registry to form a large amount of garbage, and the registry at startup to the memory, its large volume will both occupy memory and time-consuming, So we need to wipe out the rubbish. Purge method: Clears the registry of related item value data about uninstalling an application:

In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall, remove the subkeys of the uninstalled software.

To purge garbage from uninstalled software:

The rubbish is concentrated in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software and hkey_users\. In the Default \software, the contents of these items are basically the same, in one place to find the deletion, the common method is in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software branch, look for those uninstalled software residue information, and then delete.

Sometimes for convenience, we can also use the dedicated Registry Cleanup tool to find the deletion of residual information in the registry.

Rebuild the registry:

Rebuilding the Registry can also lose weight on the registry by first exporting the entire registry with Regedit under Win2000 (note: Make sure to export all the registry instead of a branch), save it as a c:\li.reg, and then restart with DOS7.0. Load the disk cache program Smartdrv to speed up processing, and then run the DOS version of REGEDIT:C:\WINDOWS\REGEDIT/C li.reg (parameter/C indicates that the entire registry is regenerated from the later specified file) by following the command. After rebuilding the registry file will be smaller than the original 25%~30% around, to achieve the goal of weight loss.

Delete the extra input method and so on

Entering Hkey_local_machine\system\currentcontrolset\control\keyboardlayouts, the following are keyboard layout subkeys for multiple languages, corresponding to the keyboard layout/IME in Control Panel, You can delete the keyboard layout and unused Input method subkeys of the unused language directly, and in Hkey_local_machine\system\currentcontrolset\control\nls\locale, the locale, which preserves the values that are not empty. Delete all the other.

Color scheme and screen security cleanup

In Hkey_current_user\controlpanel\appearance\schemes, there are various color schemes with the system, corresponding to the display/Properties/appearance/Window color scheme drop-down list in the Control Panel window, Removes the unused color scheme, and generally retains only the Windows default.

Use WinZip to compress all screen protection files (suffix. scr files) under C:\Windows and C:\Windows\System32 into a single file, save them, and then remove all the screen protection files, then click the right mouse button and select the "Properties/ Screen saver, there are no screen saver files available in the screen Saver options bar, and if you do need a screen saver, keep a few screen saver files before you delete them.
