Speed Up Your Computer Without Spending Money

Tip: Restart your computer at least once a week to clear memory and install updates. Limit the programs that start automatically with your computer by checking Task Manager > Startup tab on Windows or System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items on Mac. Disable startup programs you don't need immediately when logging in.

Why this matters: Computers slow down over time as they accumulate digital clutter and too many background programs. Regular maintenance keeps them running smoothly.

*Pro tip: If basic maintenance doesn't solve performance issues, built-in or 3rd party

professional diagnostic services can identify whether the problem is software-related, hardware aging, or malware infection.*
