Step One- Delete Temporary Files.

How to open the “Run Command”?

Step Two- Uninstall Unnecessary Programs.
It would help if you went to your PC’s control panel to uninstall unnecessary programs. To do so, please search “Control Panel” from your “Start Menu” and click on “Control Panel”. Now follow the steps below-
Control Panel > Program and Features > Your Program (The programs you generally do not use for a long time).
This step will help to start a computer fast as it has fewer programs and services to withdraw at the startup time.
Step Three- Free Up Space in Your Drive (C:).
Some Must-Know Information-

- Don’t keep any big files in “Desktop” because the Desktop is located in drive C:
- Generally, folders in My Documents like “Documents, Pictures, Videos” are also located in drive C.
- Drive C:\ will store all your downloads in your user document’s “Download Folder, ” located in the drive (C:).
So, be careful of storing files and folders in the place mentioned above. Make sure to keep them in a different partition like (D: or E:), whatever your PC has.
Step Four- Disable Start-Up Programs.
