Speed Up General Functioning
Clean It Out: This one is pretty straightforward – often computers run slowly because they’re bogged down storing tons of extra data. If you have a full computer, try cleaning it out. Go through documents, downloaded files, music and pictures to see if you have anything you can delete or copy to backup.

Uninstall programs you no longer use. For any information you need to keep, move it onto an external hard drive and store it there so you can access it later. If you aren’t sure where the slowdown is happening, use a disk-visualizing program to see what applications and files are using the most space.
