Having a slow running computer is very frustrating and annoying especially when you have to get something done that should only take a minute two and ends being double or triple that. This is a problem that many computer users have and will continue to have as long as there are computers around. But there is a simple fix that you should know about to speed up your computer with ease.

The problem with a slow running computer is that many don't know how to fix it but it's actually easy to repair yourself. The problem starts with the computers registry. This is the main database and is the core of how Windows runs. It stores all the settings and important filed you need to operate it. These settings include all your programs that are installed on your computer which can be a lot sometimes.

Even if uninstalled programs are no longer there they still have an entry in the registry. What happens next is why you have a slow running computer. When you go and open a program like Adobe Reader or Internet Explorer it has to search through all these entries in the registry for the specific programs settings. The more entries there are or if they corrupt from virus's it starts to take up more of the CPU usage and memory. This results in slow startup or even freezing.

But there is a solution that is easy and effective. A registry cleaner is the way to go. It automatically scans and removes old entries or corrupt entries in the registry. After it cleans it up you can expect to have a faster computer just like when you bought it.
