Step 4. Use Disk Cleanup
By using Windows for a long time, a lot of system junks added in your PC and those make our computer system slower. So for you to clean it follow the detailed instructions below:
- Go to this PC icon which is located in your desktop.
- And right-click on your local disk C.

Step 5. Power option

Step 7. Delete junk files
Now you might be thinking that, if we run the disk cleanup so why need to delete junk files again. But the disk cleanup is not that strong and it was just delete system junk and not every program’s junk.
So for you to be able to do it, you need a 3rd party software. Here you can use CCleaner or clean master. On my end, I do use the clean master. So if you have clean master installed in your computer, just open it and run a scan and delete all the junks.
Step 8. Visual effects
This setting will change your Windows 10 graphics settings. After you do some steps I’m going to teach you on this setting, your windows graphics will not be similar again. But don’t worry, because it will not change your gaming graphics or program graphics.
It will just disable your mouse shadows, thumbnail previews, smooth edges, smooth screen fonts. Just stuffs like those, we don’t even look at them, but it will update the performance to the maximum level.
So the last decision is totally on you. But if you don’t like it you can change it always. So I will suggest you for just try it. So now let’s begin with some simple instructions you can follow.
- For you to do it, click on your start menu
- And search for system and open it.
- Now once you are on the page click on advanced system setting.
- Now click on the settings button.
- There the default visual effect is on for ADJUST FOR BEST APPEARANCE.
- Now change it to ADJUST FOR BEST PERFORMANCE.
- Now click on OK.

After you have done these instructions I mentioned, you could feel disappointing. But you can change it whenever you want. After you complete all of those steps just give your computer a restart for it to refresh itself and I am sure that you will get an amazing result.
