On <strong>Windows 10<\/strong> you are allowed to perform this by going to the <strong>update and restore<\/strong> item. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Check for conflicts with connected external devices that are not recognized by the system.<\/strong> On Windows this can be done by clicking on the <strong>device manager<\/strong> item. Media are marked with symbols: <strong>!<\/strong> for devices with problems; <strong>X<\/strong> indicates not found; and<strong>?<\/strong> which identifies failure to detect  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Periodic monitoring of hard disk status<\/strong>. In case the hard disk is fragmented, it is necessary to perform a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.avira.com\/it\/blog\/deframmentazione?srsltid=AfmBOoo2C50k0uEJyyCYuBU_GvSYKfDBbQuE7AlAlN74uJTll7KvR2a0\">defragmentation<\/a><\/strong>, so that the <strong>files<\/strong> return to<strong> consistency and continuity<\/strong>. On Windows you can perform this by clicking on the <strong>tools<\/strong> item. On the same menu, you are allowed to <strong>scan the disk<\/strong> in order to detect its<strong> errors<\/strong>.   <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cleaning the Windows registry<\/strong>: You can start it with some programs such as<strong> Ccleaner<\/strong>. This operation deletes<strong> incorrect entries<\/strong> -relating perhaps to uninstalled programs- left on the<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.avg.com\/it\/signal\/windows-registry\">Windows registry.<\/a><\/strong>. This is an operation, in many ways,<strong> not recommended<\/strong>, as it can cause <strong>irreparable damage to the operating system.<\/strong>  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Verify -by going to the<strong> control panel<\/strong> item, that processor performance is not limited by turning on <strong>power-saving mode<\/strong>. A problem that occurs mostly with <strong>laptops<\/strong>. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Last but not least,<strong> physical cleaning of the device<\/strong>. By itself,<strong> dust<\/strong> does not directly affect the performance of the computer. However, in case it occludes the air vents, this may induce a heating state in the device.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Enhancing the performance of an old device<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Should one be faced with a <strong>decrease in performance<\/strong>, caused by<strong>aging hardware components<\/strong>, solutions may be to <strong>expand ram memory<\/strong> or <strong>install an SSD drive.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The<strong> improvement<\/strong>, in terms of <strong>speed and execution<\/strong>, will be <strong>immediate<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If even after all these cares the computer should be slow, the most drastic solution is to <strong>format<\/strong>, which <strong>returns the device to basic settings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although this option frightens many PC owners, today&#8211;especially with new operating systems&#8211;it is possible to perform it conveniently and quickly.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\"

class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, apart from the physiological aging process of device hardware components, the <strong>reasons for one&#8217;s computer slowing down<\/strong> are often<strong> trivial and easily solved<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Temporary files<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To facilitate access to information frequently accessed from Windows or in the browser, the system automatically creates <strong>temporary file folders<\/strong> that, where they become overabundant, <strong>risk slowing down the computer.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The solution is to <strong>remove them with special cleaning programs<\/strong>: one of the best ones around is <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aranzulla.it\/ccleaner-download-38683.html\">CCleaner<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can, however, also perform this task with the<strong>Windows disk cleanup tool<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Programs at startup and running automatically<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the device is <strong>already slow at startup<\/strong>, the problem may be caused by<strong>some programs that start automatically when the device is turned on.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Windows you can<strong> disable them<\/strong> from the<strong> control panel<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same is true when using <strong>programs at the same time<\/strong>, <strong>burdening RAM<\/strong> and causing, in the most extreme cases, <strong>the computer to crash.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Useful<strong> to disable programs that work in the background<\/strong> and, where the system crashes, perform a <strong>device restart<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Browser extensions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When there is the presence of<strong> multiple extensions installed in one&#8217;s browser<\/strong>, web browsing is significantly affected.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Then disable the extensions<\/strong> in order to make <strong>navigation<\/strong> more <strong>streamlined and flexible<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Slow network<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Especially when using<strong>very thinking cloud applications<\/strong>, and online games, an Internet line that does not guarantee certain requirements could result in a <strong>slowdown of some operations performed on the device<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Always install an <strong>Internet line that responds quickly to your needs<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Spyware and malware<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another very common problem when it comes to pc slowdown is the presence of<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cybersecurity360.it\/nuove-minacce\/malware-cosa-sono-come-riconoscerli-e-come-rimuoverli\/\">malware<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fortinet.com\/it\/resources\/cyberglossary\/spyware\">spyware <\/a>in one&#8217;s operating system.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Always perform appropriate<strong> scans<\/strong> to keep<strong> your device protected<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Consider whether your <strong>system<\/strong> does not already have<strong>basic antivirus<\/strong>, a setting present in Windows 10.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is important because, otherwise, installing an external antivirus may occupy additional memory.<\/p>\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The services of Oltrematica<\/strong><br\/><\/h4>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are a business and need to<strong> improve
