Top 7 Ways to Speed Up a Slow PC

Published by APM Tech Support • 2025-11-04 • Markham • Vaughan • Toronto (GTA)

1. Clear Startup Programs

Open Task Manager → Startup and disable apps you don’t need loading at boot. Fewer auto-start apps mean faster startup.

2. Clean Temporary Files & Cache

Use Disk Cleanup or trusted tools like CCleaner (free) to remove temp files, logs, and browser cache.

3. Uninstall Unused Software

Go to Control Panel → Programs → Uninstall a program and remove apps you no longer use—especially old toolbars or trials.

4. Check for Malware or Viruses

Run a full scan with Windows Defender or a reputable antivirus. If your system is still sluggish, we offer professional malware cleanup.

5. Upgrade to an SSD

Replacing an HDD with a Solid State Drive can cut boot times from minutes to seconds and make your PC feel brand new.

6. Add More RAM

If you multitask or keep many tabs open, upgrade to at least 8GB RAM for smoother performance.

7. Keep Windows & Drivers Updated

Use Settings → Windows Update, then update graphics and network drivers for stability and speed.
