[System optimization] to speed up the system, why should we reinstall it?

 

 

 

When it comes to system optimization or cleanup, it is easy for Chinese people to think of the 360 most popular national master of optimization or something. In fact, the process of installing these software is the process of stuffing things into the system. If you can complete the tasks without using third-party software, try to use the built-in functions of windows. This is the best choice.

For example, a popular demand in the past was to remove the arrow of the desktop shortcut icon, which can be achieved by modifying the registry,

 

Copy the following code to the new notepad file and save it as "any name. Reg". Double-click it to run it.

 

"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer]

"Link" = HEX: 00,00, 00,00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer]

"Link" = HEX: 00,00, 00,00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ shell icons]

"29" = "% SystemRoot % \ system32 \ imageres. dll,-121"

"

There is no need to go to the next tool specifically for this small demand. Besides, some perfectionists are always very careful when installing an unknown tool, for fear that it is bound with other rogue functions. Then again, there are no hooligans, no software, and programmers also want to eat. There is so much sacred in the world that only pays and does not ask for anything.

In the past, my practice was to directly reinstall the system if the system was slow or the software was installed, and the system was not properly deleted or the system property was set, now it is not easy to build an environment for development, and it is not easy to reinstall the system. When the computer is slow, it can only be cleaned and maintained at ordinary times.

 

1. Clear disks and release space to improve performance

 

The disk is like our lung. After a long time, it will accumulate dust, and the lungs cannot be washed, but the disk can be cleaned frequently.

Regular disk cleaning can save a large amount of available space and improve system performance.

Go to Control Panel> system and security> administrator tools. Here, you can access the disk cleaning tool. After running, select the disk drive letter to be cleaned up. The default value is drive C. We need to clean up disk C.

Then select the file type to be cleared. Here, you will find that the most occupied space is actually temporary files, every time you access a webpage, it will generate some temporary files so that you can speed up the next visit.

 

 

2. Sort disk fragments to increase data access speed

 

The so-called fragmentation means that a file is divided into many places. It is not in reality that computers store things by code, where space is available, and a file may be allocated to many places in the bucket. When reading the data, find and assemble the data from these scattered locations. Of course, this process requires resources and processing time.

Organizing fragments is to manage the distribution of scattered files and reduce the number of fragments.

After you perform the following operations, the disk will produce some fragments.

• Added, deleted, and moved a large number of files;
• Installation and uninstall of software

Similarly, go to the Administrator tool and run the disk fragmentation tool. First, analyze the disk shards and then sort them out. Fortunately, you can set up a scheduled task to regularly organize the task. You can set the task cycle in the change settings. The default value is weekly.

 

 

3. Disable the Index Service.

 

The indexing service aims to speed up file search. It tracks File Location Information and creates their indexes so that you can quickly display results when searching files. This function is really useful, but the price is that the index will occupy a lot of space and the service will eat a lot of system resources in the background.

 

 

If you do not frequently use the Windows Search function, you can disable the Indexing Service.

Right-click "my computer" and select "properties". In turn, choose "services" and "programs"> "services"> "Windows Search" on the right, right-click "properties", and select "disabled" as the Startup type.

 

 

 

 

4. Disable some flashy Interface Effects

 

If you want to beautify the interface and have installed many themes for the system, and even the mouse has a special theme, this one does not seem suitable for you.

Right-click my computer and select properties. The advanced system settings window is displayed. In the performance section, set the performance option to remove the effect that you don't think is necessary. This can indeed improve the performance and smoothness of the system running in the slave.

 

 

5. disable unnecessary services

 

Some unnecessary services not only waste resources in the background to slow your computer, but also affect the boot speed. It is necessary to clear the unnecessary services and automatically start them up.

Here is a service that can be safely disabled in Windows 7 listed in related connection 2, after the service is disabled, the system will not affect the normal use of the system, and the system will automatically start when these services are required. It is applicable to Windows 8.

 

1. Application Experience
2. Desktop Window Manager Session Manager (if you do not want aero glass effect, Win8 does not have this option)
3. Diagnostic Policy Service
4. Distributed Link Tracking Client
5. IP helper)
6. Offline files
7. Portable device enumerator Service
8. Print Spooler (if no printer is used)
9. Protected Storage (this option is not available in Win8)
10. Remote Registry
11. Secondary Logon
12. Security Center
13. Tablet PC input Service (this option is not available in Win8)
14. TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper
15. Windows Error Reporting Service
16. Windows Media Center Service Launcher

6. Change power options

 

Set the power option to high performance.

 

 

The default value is the balance state, so it is not the most efficient. If you do not set it, you will not be able to experience the performance optimization brought about by this point. Although the effect is not much, the overall performance of the system is not a small improvement from the modification of this item, but an overall improvement.

 

7. Disable some startup items

 

After you install some software, some will be set to boot by default. CTRL + Shift + ESC open the task manager and select the startup Item tag. All the programs that are randomly started are listed here to eliminate those that are not needed.

 

 

 

 

In addition, it is also a way to improve the system performance by trying to lose weight on drive C and release the space on drive C. Here is an article about weight loss on drive C, which is very detailed in Chinese.
