The next time your change the oil in your car, think of your personal computer. You flush the oil in your car to get rid of the gunk and sediments that have slowly been deposited over time. Your computer tends to have a lot of deposits that come from a variety of sources.

Each time a file is modified it may be moved or become fragmented (spread across different areas of the hard disk instead of remaining one intact whole). “Temporary” files are created that remain in the system, potentially forever. Keys and entries are added to the Windows Registry that are never removed. It all adds up to one slow computer, but there are several things you can do to fine tune your PC into top performance.

The quickest and easiest thing to do is defrag your hard drive. All Windows systems come equipped with Defrag.exe, a powerful little tool that rearranges the files on your hard drive for optimal performance. To “defrag” your drive, open up Windows Explorer (not to be confused with Internet Explorer) and right click on the drive you want to defragment (usually the C: drive). Click on Properties at the bottom of the drop down menu and then click the Tools tab at the top. Click the middle button that says “Defragment Now…” to run defrag.exe.Click the Defragment button and your off and running. Close all programs before doing this and don’t plan to do any work on your compute for a while. Running defrag could take up to a few hours or even overnight.

You should also open the Start Menu and click “Run…” Enter “msconfig” (do not use the quotes) and click OK to run the System Configuration Utility. Click the Startup tab and you will see a list of all the services and programs that load automatically every time you start Windows. Keep your antivirus program and any programs you use regularly, but if you see programs you don’t use, simply uncheck the box. When you restart Windows, you will be asked if you want to run the utility again, so you can undo any changes if you made a mistake.

It’s also important to clean the Windows Registry. This is not something you want to try one your own, since one mistake could prevent your computer from booting or functioning properly. Several software companies offer programs to do this for you, each with its own strengths and capabilities.

Website that reviews and compares registry cleaning software is Answer Registry Reviews. The site offers relevant articles on the Windows Registry and compares various registry cleaning software products. The website even offers links to directly download and purchase products such as RegCure, Registry Mechanic and Registry Easy (among others) online. If your Windows system is running slowly or you suspect a virus, Answer Registry Reviews should be the first stop for information on what might be causing the problem and to download a product that would meet your needs to correct it.

What are PC leftovers and where do they come from? PC leftovers are the results of running programs on your computer. The entire purpose of owning a computer is to run software. Unfortunately, every time you install software it makes widespread additions to the Windows Registry and adds “temporary” files to your computer that are anything but temporary.

All of this adds to the clutter that clogs your computer when it multitasks. The system slogs its way through a ton of no longer useful information in order to find and execute what it needs.

When you surf the Internet, for example, many programs install themselves through Internet pages in order to track your Internet usage and transmit data back to their hosts. Such programs usually burrow into the registry as well, associating themselves with numerous keys and values.

Some have multiple keys under multiple program names in multiple folders. It can be very difficult to track and remove these infected keys and values without removing something important. No one wants to see the “blue screen of death” because they tinkered with the wrong key in the registry.

Some programs do not have an uninstall feature, and even many that do leave more refuse behind than a Labor Day parade. Keys and subkeys often remain in the registry because they “might impact other programs.” Since the registry itself is really nothing more that a large repository, it has no mechanism to check its information with the installed programs – so it cannot determine by itself if information is needed or affects anything.

That is why software exists to make the comparison for you. It’s important to keep you registry clean as it can become quite bloated after weeks or months of usage storing Internet histories, temporary file information, and a ton of other useless information. In order to prevent elimination of potentially important information, it saves all information, no matter how potentially irrelevant.

The guide is divided into five parts:

1. Delete Spyware (Spyware)

2. Maintaining your computer by cleaning and repair of temporary files / Registry

3. Scans viruses and ways to get rid of them

4. Defragment hard drive

5. Deleting files refuse to be erased

Important note: It is important to note one more thing before you start to implement everything listed in the directory: All the actions you do according to the guide, are your responsibility alone to. System site or write the guide are not responsible for any damages that may be caused by improper use of the manual.

1. Delete spyware (Spyware)

First, start with an explanation of the term spyware / spyware:

Spyware are small programs eggs computer when you surf questionable sites (porn sites or Warz, for example). Our job is to collect information about your computer (what sites you surf, what software you use, etc.), then send him to a third party, which is somewhere across the Web. Thus, these programs take advantage of parasitism abuse your system’s resources, to spy behind you.

To get rid of spyware eggs computer while browsing the Internet / software installation (which includes spyware in it), use software designed to locate and destroy them.

Today, there are many software Spyware from your dedication; following software are recommended the most (whether in terms of frequency of software updates, or effectiveness):

These are the leading software that will help you get rid of spyware that infected you.

* It is important to mention – you are asked to update each of these programs immediately after installation. It is important to regularly updated, so the software can find as much spyware on your computer, because new versions are distributed on nearly every day. Now consider the HijackThis program in detail:

HijackThis is a little more professional software and other programs that were offered up. The software scans places around killing ‘way hard drive itself and other software just can not scan.

Note that when you perform a scan, do not delete the software shows all the results at the end, very careful and choose to delete items, because you can delete critical files of different programs, causing many problems.

To allow a user to understand which files are dangerous, the site offers the HijackThis tool allowing you to analyze the log files of the software.

Brief explanation of the use of the service of the site:

When you activate the software, Select Do a system scan and save a Logfile.

Scan type that makes you get at the end of the scan a text file, which records all scan results and all necessary data.

Now, what you should do to scan the log automatically with the site, is to keep all the content that appears in the text file you have at the end of the scan, and copy the window in the center of the top site above.

Once they are copied to the entire contents of the log into the window, click on the “Analyze” – now you can see the results obtained.

Results of the analysis, at each file, you can see if it Safe (correctly, I mean it’s not a spyware or a virus), Nasty (a dangerous – to remove it), Unknown – Unknown file (in which case you will need to run a file search on — Google and see if he is dangerous or not) Possibly nasty (file is probably dangerous, even this search on Google will help) and finally – Unnecessary (File is no longer necessary system – a file that can be highly recommended to delete any situation, because he was just a unnecessary / incorrect in his path).

Important note:

If you want to remove HijackThis will most efficiently and optimally – to perform the removal process of the files on – “Safe Mode” (Safe-Mode), because there are many pests that can be erased in normal mode, since they make use of processes / programs running in the background .

Important note: We recommend you to good on the blog before you remove something, and if you see any suspicious file that there is no sign that the site is as dangerous, do not hesitate to do a Google search and discover information about the file in question.

2. Maintenance and repair your computer by cleaning of temporary files / Registry

Some reasons are temporary files (which can get very much of your hard drive) remaining files Berg ‘way / files Raja way defective.

Kill files’ way are actually Database files (data base) guards in them all the information about the various settings of your operating system.

Also, there are plenty of programs that perform actions to clean temporary files and patches Reg-way, but here recommend only a few of them:

Registry Mechanic ™ 9.0 – software that repairs files cleaner Reg-way computer. The software performs Deep Scan Registry, it is actually a thorough scan in files registry

explanation of Use of the Software Registry Mechanic:

The initial screen of the software, you will see a number of different options; this guide we explain the general role of each one:

The first button – Scan Your Registry, this is the button that activates the scan operation. Clicking this button will bring you to the screen with detailed status performed various scans at the same time.

Second button – Reset Optimization, is the button that returns the system settings from your usual settings.

The default software is Cshhgdrot of your system settings tailored to be optimal, so the computer’s performance will be best.

After clicking the button and go back to original settings, the button’s caption becomes to Optimize Your System (the name is – optimize your computer’s performance and return the situation where your system is set to be the most optimal action).

The third button – Compact Registry, run the compression of all files and kill ‘way in the system.

Compression of files killed ‘way can help improve system speed slightly (though the degree of effect depends on the size of reservoir killed’ way – if the pool kill ‘your way huge, it can expand to be very noticeable in terms of performance).

Note that compression killed ‘way can take some time … Depends on how many files killed ‘way there.

3. Scans computer viruses and ways to get rid of them

This section links and explanations displayed on a computer infected with viruses therapy.

Today there are a large number of software to scan and remove viruses, some free and some fee. We recommend the two programs, which we think are the best.

Kaspersky Interent Security 2010 – great software to scan and destruction of viruses in your computer. The software is updated relatively fast antivirus – other virus, in addition to its fast and efficient scanning. Software interface is easy, convenient and friendly to operate.

* Note: Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal Pro is not free.

AVG Anti-Virus - AVG software is antivirus – virus successfully, with good reviews and recommendations, and the software we have chosen to recommend it here.

Our experience with the software, we can definitely set her anti – virus free best that exists today.

Explanation on the use AVG software:

Using the software is very easy, not least because of its convenient interface. As usual, after installing the software you need to update it, to maintain high efficiency.

The software update is done by clicking the Check for Updates button in the main screen. The update adds new virus database software, fix bugs (if there are such) and more.

After the update, click on the button Test Center, also located in the main screen of the software, to enter various modes of scanning software. Now, press the Scan Computer button to start a full scan of Mhsbcm.

After the scan, will show to you a complete list of viruses the software located on your computer (of course always better than this list will be empty).

To delete the file using the software, simply click on the Browse button and select the problematic file.

Then you are offered four different ways to delete the file, and try each one until the file is deleted. However, note that the last option performs the action “del *.*”, which deletes all the files in the same folder where the file is problematic, so made sure to collect it (which is also not recommended to do this if the file is located in the –

root, for example, c: \).

If you’ve tried to use Delete Doctor software, which did not help, try to use the software when you are on – “Safe Mode” (Safe-Mode).

The third method is to use KNOPPIX Linux Live CD, and here we’ll expound on the subject.

If after you’ve tried the two ways we suggested above, the file still refuses to be erased, this method is probably the final solution to solve the problem.

KNOPPIX is an operating system based on Linux, and powered directly from the CD automatically, without writing any information on the hard drive (you can call it “mobile operating system”).

Because the use of any other operating system is not related to the current operating system on your computer, there would be no problem to delete the files Hbaitiim (which now no longer dependent on any software or in any process, so it would be possible to delete them).

Most likely if you use this way, you experience the following issue: Knoppix sets the drives as Read Only (which means you can not make changes on the drive, only to watch the files in it). To overcome this problem, you have to set the Knoppix so that it becomes the drives to Writable (can rewrite, delete actions that not possible when the drives are set as Read Only).

So what did the manual?

* Erased unwanted spyware from your computer, and actually improved the speed of general web browsing speed of your computer.

* Fixed files Raja corrupted Registry, which could cause problems with different software.

* Out of the way viruses / Trojans that made the computer was vulnerable to attack by hackers broken.

* Caused the hard drive to run faster by making fusion.

* Problematic files out of the way who will not be erased.

Now, if you want your computer will continue to operate without some problems, make sure to frequently all necessary steps to maintain adequate computer.

4. Defragment hard drive

Lots of times when you install and remove software or games from the drive, Christians split files, split Ocskiimim files from your hard drive, his reading becomes slower because it is not continuous.

The result of not reading the disk’s continuous, is a general slowness of the system (installation of software / games will be longer, for example).

Very important to defragment your hard drive often, so it will provide you with optimal performance. In fact, it is recommended to perform the defragmentation at least once a month.

Defragment the hard drive can be made using the Disk Defragmenter included with Windows operating system help me, or using external software. In any case, an identical content – both from the labyrinthine files on your hard drive, letting the continuous call.

If you do not rely on Windows and wanting to perform the defragmentation using external software, then Diskeeper will do the job properly.

Failed software data files of Outlook may be a bad deal. The Outlook tends to keep all item of information in one file, so you may lose all at once your mail messages, your calendar and address book.

Immediately you should try to run from the command line with the switch “Safe” (type Outlook / safe And Click Enter). If you can load the software, deleted the messages received (usually it turns out that one of them was faulty and the problem) and run the software again without difficulty.   If it does not work, you will need to use an external tool to check the Outlook data files (with extension PST) and fix them.

One tool you already have a computer: “Repair Tool Inbox” that comes in the name scanpst.exe usually stored in one sub-folder of Windows / System (most just use the search mechanism built-in Windows). Else – so you will need to locate the file-PST (also it can find) and fix it by using the tool.

Better yet: OutlookFix

But if you want an instant solution to (almost), friendly, convenient, efficient and faster, so better to use – OutlookFix.

You will also receive progress status indicator, desperately missing feature of Microsoft’s tool. Note the advanced options (click on the button Advanced). Get there the possibility, among others, to restore only parts from the file into separate files.

All installation of windows becomes slowly more and heavy with the time, but sometimes to install again is an extreme solution. In this instructor we centered several methods to basic cleaning of all the covert corners of windows, in order that you will be able to get a little more time before the unavoidable installation.

Erase unnecessary files

During the normal action of the computer, windows and remainder of the software’s guard thousands of temporary files in several different places in the computer, Those files indeed essential to the action of windows and the other software’s,
But as that suggestive name they are essential only temporarily, and at any given moment most likely that there is on your computer only several temporary solitary files that really situated in the use.

Still, most of the software’s not discharge from their temporary files in themselves, and those are accumulative rapidly. The deletion of the temporary files not necessarily will bring to the improvement in the executions, but definitely can turn several hundred or even thousands of mega bytes in the hard drive.

The simple way to erase the temporary files is by means of disk cleanup, the implicit tool of windows for the evacuation of place in the hard drive. In the windows XP, he is situated in the menu start. In the directory voted on accessories / system tools. In vista, opened the menu start and type disk cleanup in a series of the search.

To the deletion of the temporary files indicate the line temporary files. In the same opportunity, indicate to the deletion also every remainder of the unnecessary files but be sure that you are not erasers vital files of windows operation. To be on the safe side, press on view files in order to present the files that indicated to the deletion, and in the event of supplier, just left the files there.

If you prefer the manual method you will be able to open the directory of the temporary files and to erase the files by yourselves. Open the menu start, and press on run, and in the line open pasted the abbreviation:

%temp%

Press on enter, and the directory of the temporary files of windows will open/develop in the patroller of the files. Use short Ctrl+A in order to choose all the files, and press on the key delete in order to erase them. During the deletion, most likely that windows will present an announcement that by which one or more of the files that requested to erase situated in the use – As mentioned, part of the temporary files are essential to proper action of windows and of the software’s that work under it. Is recommended to close all the software’s that work before the deletion of the files, But if there will be files that will not be able to erase even after closing of all the open software’s are just left them there and continued onward. At any rate, the directory will fill again in the little innocuous files inside several days.

Remove unnecessary software’s

After the removal of the unnecessary files the next stage is to remove the unnecessary software’s. In the windows XP, Open the control panel, and later operated add or remove programs. In vista, opened the control panel and type in a series of the search uninstall, and chose the possibility uninstall a program.

Scan in the perusal for all the items in the list, and decided exactly which software’s you still need and which just catch a place on the computer. Dedicated a special attention to the software’s that you do not remember that installed, or to the software’s that work automatic after initialization of the computer.
When you will arrive at the software’s that you will not recognize, don’t will be seduced to remove her immediately, search name of software in Google and be sure that it is not essential to action of other necessary software.

A removal of software’s by the list of the software’s that is built-in of windows could be bearable solution for those who they don’t have many software’s in the computer,
But many users will found themselves work on list of hundred different software’s and wait for every time to the conclusion of the removal of one software before it’s possible to continue and to remove the next software.

In order to change the process to be more efficiently, used in perfect uninstaller, it takes the list of the normal software’s of windows, but enable you to indicate all the software’s that you want to remove in advance, and so transformed process of the filtration efficient by far.

Cleaning the registry

In each version of windows, the registry is the database that contains all definitions of the computer, the hardware, the operating system, and the software’s Exactly like that normal system of the files of windows accumulate in during of time old unnecessary files, so also in the registry can accumulate incorrect and old data.
In general, there no have any actual effect for all the old data in the registry, but in some cases they can slow the operating system, in particular in the time of the initialization, and in the extreme cases even able damage the stability.

In order to cleaning registry, used in RegCure or Registry Mechanic that Free Scan this give you ability to check them before you purchase them. These tools support cleaning of other components in the computer, but she excels mainly to cleaning of the registry. After the installation, operated RegCure, and press on the button Registry Icon, and later press on Scan. After scanning of the entire registry, the unnecessary values will be presented in the list, and you will be able to choose the advisable values and erase them. RegCure or Registry Mechanic indeed offers possibility of reconstruction for all the changes that will do by means of her, but take note to the warning that appears before an activation of tool of cleaning of the registry. If you are uncertain as regards the values that were offered for deletion or unprepared to take the risk that the computer will simply cease to work, jumped on this stage.
