PC Boost?!
There are many tips out there in the internet that "said" to be a way to speed up your PC. But for sure, some of them are not real. Some tips are believed by many to do such thing but in reality, it doesn't. Here's three myths about things that can hasten up your PC Performance.
1. Disabling System Restore
Many says that disabling the System Restore can hasten up your PC by freeing some hard drive space and preventing it from popping in while you work. But since System Restore activates only when you install apps or when your PC is idle, and since it uses only a small fraction of your drive, turning it off robs you of a valuable safety measure without providing any benefit.
2. Cleaning the Registry
Many love to tweak through their registry editor. Many of them are those Windows users. They think that doing such will: improves the efficiency of the system, makes it run faster, makes the RAM to be maximized fully, and saves the OS energy at boot-up thus making it boot quickly. But the sad part is that, we've seen no evidence in that such works. Beware that you can do more harm than good by messing with the database that runs your PC.
3. Defragging Your Drive
Ago, when drives were still small and OSs were simpler, doing this was necessary.But Windows XP, Vista, and 7 all have automated disk optimization, and it’s rare for a drive to become so fragmented that it hampers performance.
Defragging is not harmful but it's just a waste of time.
