I always get asked by random people to come fix their computer because it’s running slow and has viruses. I’m not trying to advertise, but everyone should get the free program CCleaner from the website FileHippo. Just Google CCleaner and it should come up. It cleans your computer from junk and temporary files that it accumulates over time. I clean people’s computers with it and it often gets rid of GIGABYTES worth of junk. Run it daily and it will keep your pc running smooth. I can also recommend “Malwarebyte’s Anti-Malware”, and/or “Spybot Search & Destroy”. These two are very effective FREE virus cleaners, but they don’t provide active protection, so they don’t weigh down your system. If people knew how to clean their systems they wouldn’t need to buy new hardware all the time. You should also defragment your disc drive every so often. Windows has a program built in that does this, but you need to run it manually.
