Prog to increase the performance of computers. Free software to optimize your computer

The performance of the computer depends on the power of the hardware components, and on the properly configured operation of the operating system. Little benefit from increasing the volume random access memoryif it is clogged with useless programs. A powerful processor will not speed up the operation if it is limited to save battery power. Fine tuning Windows can significantly optimize the system without additional material costs.

What affects the performance of the system

The performance of Windows 7 is determined by many factors, one part of which is the result of a compromise between power, convenience and battery consumption, and the other depends on the "grooming" of the computer. Therefore, to increase the speed, you must configure the system for maximum performance and eliminate all obstacles to its normal operation.

Perhaps an experienced user will want to debug each element of the system and configure the computer for their own needs. For the rest, the best solution is to use special programs for fine-tuning   systems (tweakers), which in a convenient and understandable way show problems and help to eliminate them.

Optimization programs (free and paid)

Programs, the main purpose of which is to improve the performance of Windows 7, a lot is presented on the market. There are universal large applications and small specialized utilities, programs with many customizable options and with one "red button". Most programs have additional functions that are not directly related to performance, but also important to the user, for example, the protection of personal data.

Universal

As a rule, universal programs have a large set of optimization utilities, but they are paid. Packages with limited functionality or outdated versions are distributed free of charge.

Advanced SystemCare

Universal application Advanced SystemCare is an impressive set of fine tools windows Settings, protection from malicious, spyware and adware. Special utilities eliminate registry problems, security settings and operations with intermediate files. To date, the application is one of the best in this category.

The functional includes more than 20 original utilities, including tools for cleaning, setting up and repairing Windows 7, security and control modules.

Three acceleration modes are available

• Manage startup. Remove unnecessary programs and services from the startup list to speed up the work.
• Background mode. The proprietary ActiveBoost technology accelerates the work of constantly monitoring the state of the system and reallocates resources to the needs of the user.
• Settings of work on the Internet. Increases the speed and safety of work in the worldwide network.
• Care hard drive. Scanning, cleaning and defragmenting the drive. Declared the speed of defragmentation is several times higher than that of competitors. There is a simultaneous defragmentation of several disks simultaneously, as well as support for solid-state drives.

Futuristic style and a big Start button

• Switching modes. In the simplified mode, the work takes place in a semi-automatic mode, requiring a minimum user participation. Expert mode allows you to configure scanning and optimization to your taste. Modes are switched by one click, which is very convenient. The modes of performance (work and games) are also easily switched.

Acceleration is activated by one button

• Automatic start. You can configure the launch of the optimizer at a certain time (for example, at night), at system startup or during automatically detected idle time.

The free version of Advanced SystemCare also has good functionality, but truly the program's features are revealed in a full paid package.

In the free version, many features are not available

The popular package CCleaner primarily specializes in cleaning the operating system, drives and RAM, hence its name. But many other Windows 7 optimization features are available to the user.

The functionality of CCleaner is already higher than that of Advanced SystemCare, however, special utilities for cleaning are much more powerful:

• Cleaning temporary files. The package cleans the time windows files   (including clipboard, log files, trash), memory and browsers, search history, visits and downloads, a list of the latest open documents   most popular applications. In addition to obtaining additional free space on the drive, this is important for the privacy of the work.
• Clean and configure the registry. Reveals and eliminates registry problems, links to missing entries, controls, libraries, fonts, icons, shortcuts, directories and so on.

The registry is analyzed carefully

• Full erasure. A utility that allows you to delete information with a guarantee that it can not be recovered from hard drive   and removable drives.

For 35 passes, any information will be erased

• Uninstalling programs. Functional and friendly utility for erasing unnecessary applications.

The interface package is very simple and intuitive, does not require a deep knowledge of the system.

The analysis is very fast

• Additional cleaning options. It is possible to configure the work of the package in the background, and also set the option to shutdown the computer after the procedure is completed.
• Work safety. The package pays great attention to the security of user data, therefore at all important stages it is proposed backup   or creating rollback points.

You can create backups before fixing

Free old ones are distributed version of CCleaner. To get more powerful upgraded packages you have to pay.

AusLogics BoostSpeed

A package of BoostSpeed ​​companies with Australian roots AusLogics has an impressive set of utilities and user-friendly interface. The stated main goal of the package is to increase the speed of the system.

The list of utilities is impressive

The functional contains utilities for repairing the registry, setting up the system, maintaining the hard drive:

Red Button

The developers of the Red Button program in the first place put the simplicity and convenience of the interface. Even the name of the application is not accidental - you can start optimization by one click on the big red button.

This button is hard not to notice

Red Button has a very good functionality, consisting of utilities that optimize the performance of the processor, RAM, hard disk and registry:

• Automatic release of RAM. Auto power off   hung programs and services, unused DLLs, unnecessary messages, and so on.
• Disable system services. It is possible to switch off unnecessary of Windows Services   7 to reduce the load on the processor and free RAM.

Until recently, the program was distributed free of charge, but the popularity of the package inspired the manufacturer to release paid versions. But the past free modifications show good results.

Glary Utilities

A small program Glary Utilities also claims to be universal, but its strengths can be considered a tool for analyzing the system.

Functional Glary Utilities contains tools for checking and optimizing the system, privacy, care for the hard disk and updating the available drivers.

Utilities are not so many, but there are rare

• Analysis. Determine the speed at which the system starts up with the report.

You can sort the programs by several criteria

• Decor. You can choose from several themes.

Several limited functionality of the package is justified by the fact that it is distributed free of charge.

The nCleaner application for its small size and functionality can be classified as a mini-program to optimize system performance. The program focuses on cleaning.

Functional nCleaner is focused on removing unnecessary information, but there are additional tools:

• Cleaning. Tools for cleaning the system, registry, personal data.

• One page. The main functions are collected on the main page, which is very convenient.

Basic functions are collected in one window

• Schedule. It is possible to run automatically according to the schedule specified by the user.

NCleaner does not have the traditional option of undoing the changes made or creating backup copies of the system registry, which is justified, given the application's small size.

Of course, this mini-program is distributed free of charge.

Comparison table: which program to choose

As you might expect, the largest number of utilities needed to optimize the operation contain universal packages. But mini-programs have their own strengths. They are more compact, easy to use, have developed special functions and, as a rule, are free.

In the process of working on a computer, sooner or later there is a lot of "digital garbage", which, of course, must be periodically cleaned. It is almost impossible to do this manually, and therefore there are a lot of special applications for this purpose. Consider the most successful of them (according to user estimates).

Advanced System Optimizer

A simple and convenient application with a fully Russified interface. Excellent coping with the "garbage" on the computer, and also optimizes the system settings. The free version of the program performs only scanning, to make corrections, you will have to purchase the full version.

WinZip System Utilities

This free program will easily and simply perform the optimization of the system. In its arsenal there is a wide range of various tools with which help your computer will become much more "smart".

System Mechanic

If the computer started to work incorrectly - feel free to contact "System Mechanic" for help. Even his free version can quickly bring the computer back to life. Version Pro has a wider range of features.

MAGIX PC Check & Tuning

With this utility you can prevent potential problems in the PC. The application is paid, but there is a 30-day trial period.

TuneUp Utilities

Appeared one of the first, TuneUp and now remains the most popular application for optimizing the operating system, as evidenced by the statistics of downloads.

SystemSuite Professional

The program is one of the best among the applications for optimizing Windows. To support the computer in a working state, it is enough to periodically run a computer scan with it.

Advanced SystemCare

With such problems as unnecessary files, registry errors, etc., the free Advances System Care application will do an excellent job. The original interface and stunning features will make you literally "fall in love" with this application. With Advanced System Care, you can:

Spotmau PowerSuite

A very popular utility, unfortunately still little-known in RuNet. At the first acquaintance, I was somewhat confused by the intricate English-speaking interface and considerable price, but with its functions this tool copes with "excellent".

Auslogics BoostSpeed

Another "long-liver" among system optimizers is a product from the well-known software company Auslogic. In addition to the "gentlemen's set" of standard functions, BoostSpeed ​​can also remove installed programs and defragment disks. Like most similar applications, this utility is paid, with the option of installing a free trial version.

WinUtilities Professional

The last in our review is a professional package of utilities with the same name. Contains 25 utilities that allow you to optimize and significantly accelerate the operation of the operating system.

All tools are clearly structured, the Russian-language interface - working with the program will not be difficult. Briefly about the list of opportunities:

• Cleaning the disk of "garbage";
• Registry optimization;
• Removing unnecessary shortcuts;
• Disk Defragmenter;
• Optimization of operative memory;
• Manage startup and much more.

There is a free version and a version of Pro with advanced features.

P.S.

And what program for optimization and cleaning Windows   use you?

Many programs automatically start when the computer is turned on, which causes the system to load longer. In addition, these programs take up unnecessary memory, and at the same time do not always need you.

  To edit the list of programs for startup, you must click the "Start" button and type msconfig in the search string. In the "Startup" tab, checkboxes indicate which programs are launched when the computer is turned on. It remains to remove the jackdaws from unnecessary programs.

  Be careful and do not disable startup utilities and antivirus products.

3. Disable autoload unnecessary fonts

When you turn on a Windows computer   loads a set of more than 200 different fonts. To disconnect superfluous can be so: "Start" - the Control panel - Appearance and personalization - Fonts. We open context menu   right button and on an unnecessary font and choose "Hide".

  Only Comic Sans only hardcore!

4. Delete temporary files

In the process of working on the hard disk, a lot of temporary files are created every day, which somehow invisibly become permanent. They also greatly reduce the overall speed of the computer.

  Regular cleaning of the computer will speed up the loading of the operating system and programs, as well as free up space on the hard disk.

  To do this, just open My computer - the partition with the operating system (usually Disk C: \\) - windows folder   - Temp folder, then delete all files and empty Trash.

5. Disk Cleanup

To optimize Windows, Microsoft developers have provided a built-in disk cleaning utility. It searches for and removes junk files, such as temporary Internet files, distributions of installed programs, various error reports, and others.

  Go to the Start menu - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - Disk Cleanup.

6. Disk defragmentation

Deleting unnecessary programs   and files, get disk defragmented, i.e. rearranging files on your hard drive for maximum optimization of your PC.

  Defragmentation can be performed using Windowsor you can use special programs - this is a topic for a separate article.

  The standard procedure will look like this: in the Explorer, select the partition for defragmentation (for example, the D: \\ drive) and right-click it, in the menu that appears, open Properties and click "Run Defragmentation" in the Tools tab.

7. Install SSD

Speed ​​up the loading of the operating system and programs will help solid state driveself-installation of which in a laptop, we considered in. If there are not enough funds for a 500 GB SSD, it makes sense to purchase a disk at least to install the operating system - on the new SSD it will just fly.

8. Install HDD


On YouTube, a lot of video guides for installing HDD. Here is one of them

If the budget does not allow you to spend on expensive SSD-drives, you should not abandon the more traditional components. Installing an additional HDD will significantly improve PC performance.

  So, if the hard disk is occupied by more than 85%, the computer will work several times slower. In addition, installing an additional hard disk on a stationary PC is even easier than installing an SSD.

9. Installing additional RAM

RAM is used to process running programs. The more information you need to process, the more RAM you need.

If there is not enough memory, the system begins to use hard disk resources, which leads to a critical slowing down of the computer and Windows hangs.

  Add or replace strips of RAM will not be any difficulty. For a regular computer with a set of standard office programs   4 GB of RAM is enough, and for a gaming PC, you can think of 16 GB or higher.

10. Cleaning

Dust is the enemy of computer number 2 (we all know that enemy number 1 is). It prevents normal ventilation, as a result of which PC components can overheat, slowing down the system. Extreme overheating of components can lead to their complete failure.

  Turn off the computer at least half an hour before the start of cleaning. Do not clean up in synthetic clothes - as a result of friction, a static charge may occur, which can damage components. To remove static, touch the unpainted part of the central heating battery.

  Turn on the vacuum cleaner at low power and gently remove dust from all parts of the PC. Particular attention should be paid to the power supply, CPU cooler and video card, where most of the dust accumulates.

Do not rush to buy new computer, if home computer   or the laptop began to slow down. Try optimizing Windows 7 to improve device performance. Optimization can be performed using standard tools or third-party programs.

Ways to improve Windows 7 performance

Computer performance is a measure of the speed of operations. operating system   Windows 7 displays it as an index from 1 to 10 - the higher the number, the faster the computer works. To view the performance value, open the Control Panel and select the “Counters and Performance Tools” item. Assessing the speed of the computer, use the standard methods of acceleration.

Uninstall unused programs

Start acceleration with cleaning the hard drive - manually erase unnecessary programs from memory. Open the Control Panel and select "Uninstall a program." Select the applications you do not use one by one, and for each click on the “Delete” button. Be careful - do not accidentally erase the programs that are responsible for the system (sound drivers, video drivers, programs for working with Bluetooth, a webcam, and others).

You can find out what the application is responsible for by typing its name in a search engine.

Uninstalling programs using the system control panel

Cleaning and defragmenting your hard drive

After manual removal of programs, clean hDD   from unnecessary filesand then defragment.

When writing to a hard disk files are divided into parts. When a user deletes a program or document, a disk is formed. free placewhich occupy fragments of the new file. To run the file, the system collects it into fragments from different parts of the disk, which slows down the work. Defragmentation - the union of fragments of each file.

To defragment, go to "My Computer", select any disk and right click on it. In the drop-down menu, select "Properties." Click the "Tools" tab and click "Run Defragmentation". When the procedure is complete, restart the computer.

Red denotes hard disk sectors that require defragmentation.

Customize visual effects

When defragmentation does not help, go to radical measures. By default, in Windows 7, visual effects are activated: smooth transitions, animation when opening windows and others. On low-power computers, they reduce performance.

Standard Windows Performance Counters

To optimize system performance in the Start menu, type “ Visual effects". Open the "Performance and Performance Tuning". Set a marker near the item "Provide speed" and remove all the "checkmarks". Then tick the following items:

• smooth uneven fonts;
• enable desktop composition;
• use window and button styles;
• display thumbnails.

Click the "Apply" button and restart the computer.

Startup programs at startup Windows

There is a set of programs that automatically open when booting windows   7. To speed up the system, disable autorun. Open the Start menu - All Programs - Startup. Remove from the opened folder the programs for which you want to disable autorun.

To exclude a program from the startup list, remove it from the corresponding folder

Delete data from the registry

Registry - base windows data   with information about installed applications, user settings and actions. After the removal of programs or games, records remain in it, and overcrowded register   slows down the system. Use for cleaning cCleaner   or similar.

Disabling Windows Services

By default, Windows services are not needed by users. To disable services, open and immediately close the programs you are using. Open "Start - Control Panel - Administrative Tools." Click on the "Services" tab. Remove the "tick" from those services, near which there is an inscription "Stopped".
