Improve XP pre-read files to shut down fast as lightning!

First, prohibit the program to produce index files

Pre-read files cause system startup to slow because the index files generated when you run the program are read. Therefore, we only need to prohibit the production of PF files.

After entering "Msconfig" in the Run window, enter the System Configuration Utility window, switch it to the Services tab, and then cancel and save the settings before the "task Scheduler" item. This prevents the indexing file from being set up (quick to know: What if the computer shuts down very slowly?) ）。

Turn off the Task Scheduler service prevents indexing

Second, read only system files

Since the index information for systems and applications is saved in Prefetch, from the point of view of increasing the startup speed, you can only set the read system files and skip the application's index file read process. To do this, you can run "regedit" to open Registry Editor, and then select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management\prefetchparameters, double click on the right side of "Enableprefetcher", you can see that its value is 3, that is, read system files and applications, we can change it to 2, that is, only pre-read Windows System files (Quick know: Let the computer automatically shutdown).

Third, the shutdown automatically empty the pre-read files

We can also automatically empty the contents of the read-only folder by shutting down the machine, so as to speed up the next boot. Open Notepad and enter del%systemroot%\prefetch\*.*/q inside to save the file as a Del.bat file. Next, open the Run window, enter Gpedit.msc, turn on the Group Policy Editor, select Computer Configuration-windows Settings-script, double-click the "Shutdown" item on the right, and click the "Add" button in the open window to add the Del.bat file. In this way, Group Policy will call the Del.bat in the background and run the commands to clear the contents of the read-only folder, thus increasing the speed of the next boot (fast know: Play turn shutdown, skillfully do timing shutdown).

Through the above operation, I believe that the pre-read file to play its original function, no longer become a barrier to boot.
