How to Speed up your PC (for Windows OS)

Is it that your PC is slower comparing to how it used to be? Here are some tips that will help you speed it up, most of what consists of disabling unnecessary serviced gave by Windows OS.

Step One
You need to go into service manager, for this click Start, select "Run", then type "services.msc" then hit enter key.

Second Step
To change the start-up mode of a service from the OS between Manual, Automatic and Disabled, make a double-click on the necessary service and pick out the particular option from the list box named ‘Startup Type’ in the General tab.

Step Three
If you are not sure concerning a service, or for some reason you think this is important, do not change anything or make sure it is not disabled. This is important for protecting from damage.

Step Four
Here is a list of unneeded services in Windows that can be turned off (of course if you do not use them):

* AdobeLM Service: If your computer has this service (not all computers do), just disable it as it is not used.
* Alerter: In case you are not on a network, you can disable this option as you won't have alerts.
* Application Management: Set this option to manual.
* Automatic Updates: Disable this in case you do not need the auto updating and patching of the Windows. If you are using auto-patcher by NeoWin for updating your Windows Operating System, the automatic updates service is useless. Therefore, you also will save bandwidth.
* Clip Book: You can set this to disabled in case you aren't on a network, since you aren't sharing anything.
* Computer Browser: Disable if you aren't on a network, since there is no need to browse and supervise other connected computers.
* Cryptographic Services: Set this service to manual in case you are unsure you need it.
* Distributed Transaction Service: Set to manual.
* DNS Client: If you aren't on a network, you can set this to manual.
* Error Reporting Service: This is an useless service for the reports of errors to Microsoft, you can disable it as there are very little chances for you to get even a reply from them for any error. This also saves a lot of bandwidth.
* Fast User Switching Compatibility: This service has no use for computers with low memory; it is needed if you log off completely and other users use your computer. In case your computer has a single user and/or you do not use fast user switching option very often, you can disable it.
* FTP Publishing: Disable in case you don't use FTP.
* Help and Support: You can set this to manual or even turn it off in case you don't explore the help feature. When you want help you can always turn it on.
* HTTP SSL: Set this service to manual.
* Human Interface Device Access: Turn it off in case you aren't using hot-keys or remote systems on your computer; in case you do use them sometimes, it is recommended to set it to manual.
* IMAPI CD-Burning COM Service: Set this to manual for saving memory and time. If there is a CD or DVD writer attached to your computer, DO NOT turn it off.
* Indexing Service: Turn it off - it uses lots of CPU - if you know where are your files and do not use the search option very often. In case you are an avid searcher on your personal computer, better not changing it as it will help you.
* InstallDriver Table Manager: Disable it. You can let this on if you need it.
* IPSEC Services: Set to manual this option.

Step Five
Close the services window and restart your Computer. The difference in speed should be noticed immediately.

Warning:
Theoretically this method of speeding up your PC is risk-free, but anyway make sure you do not use a specific service before disabling it. In case something is going wrong and/or stops working after restarting the computer, find the required service and turn it on.
