Easy Steps to Improve Your PC’s Boot Up
The second step is a little more complicated but still very easy to perform. Not all of the programs that load when your computer will be located in your startup folder on the start menu. Actually in most new operating systems the startup folder is usually empty. To remove these files, you will need to run your system configuration utility. To do this simply click start, run, and type msconfig, and press enter. You will then see the system configuration utility appear. Here you simply click the startup tab and check or uncheck what programs you wish to run or not at startup. Be careful not to change the settings anywhere but the startup tab as this can cause problems with your computers performance. Only change the settings under the startup tab unless you are an experienced user.
Un checking the programs in the configuration utility or removing programs from the startup folder will not delete these programs from your computer, it will simply not load them when your computer first boots up. These programs can still be opened up and accessed anytime you need them by simply double-clicking them as you normally would.
The above tips will help your computer to boot a lot faster and more efficiently so that you do not have to wait forever to surf the web or work on that spreadsheet you need to update. Cleaning your startup is a simple and effective way to increase your boot time by a lot. So follow the above tips and you’re on your way to a faster boot the next time you press that power button!
