acebyte 0 Posted September 19, 2011 Is your computer performing as slowly as a snail paces? Is your computer filled with a lot of junk software? Is your computer full of loopholes? If yes, then optimize your computer. But now many users are no longer interested in system optimization. Many say that it does not make much difference before and after optimization. Is that true? In fact, in optimization, many important aspects are neglected. Following are the aspects: Place “Shortcuts†in a correct way In most cases, we run the software by its “shortcut". Many of you may like to place shortcuts on the desktop, which not only dazes your eyes, but also levels down system performance. So it’s best to place about 10 shortcuts on the desktop and others in Start Menu and Quick Launch Bar. Delete the “Uninstall†shortcut of all software to improve system performance. Also, do not duplicate shortcuts. This is a simple but effective way to speed up computers. Caution "Security†software Security software here refers to real-time anti-virus software and firewall. Such software consumes much of the system resources and CPU resources (some up to 30% or more). There is no need to use such software if you do not often access some junk sites. Not using such security software is much more practical and convenient than overclocking the CPU. Set "icon cache†in a scientific way Usually the default system icon cache is relatively large, which is kind of waste. So it’s necessary to make some adjustment to its value. With many system optimizers, we can check how much icon cache the system has used, and then set its value to about 2 times the actual value. In addition, make the desktop background simple. It is recommended to set it to “Noneâ€. Some people even make a dynamic desktop background, which has no practical significance, but unstabilizes the system. After all, there are very little time when we are facing the desktop. Share this post Link to post
