Re: Help - HJTL - Computer running very slow
|
your log looks clean, however you do have an awful lot of programs running at startup.
download and run startup inspector
make sure you read the instructions.
It will tell you what is running at startup and what can be safely removed, and will allow you to remove the unnecessary entries to
speed up your boot up time and your general computing.
once you have removed all the unnecessary startup items :-
Download and scan with CCleaner
- CCleaner installs the Yahoo Toolbar as an option which IS checkmarked by default during the installation.
IF you do NOT want it, REMOVE the checkmark when provided with the option OR download the toolbar-free or Slim versions instead of the Standard Build. - Before first use, select Options > Advanced and UNCHECK "Only delete files in Windows Temp folder older than 48 hours"
Then select "Cookies"
Move any cookies you wish to retain, e.g. login cookies, in the left-hand window to the right-hand window by highlighting them and clicking the right arrow in the centre. - Then select the items you wish to clean up.
In the Windows Tab:
• Clean all entries in the "Internet Explorer" section.
• Clean all the entries in the "Windows Explorer" section.
• Leave the "Advanced" section at default.
• Clean any others that you choose.
Leave the system section at default
In the Applications Tab:
• Clean all entries in the Mozilla Firefox Section.
• Clean all in the Opera section if you use it.
• Clean Sun Java in the Internet Section.
• Clean any others that you choose. - Click the "Run Cleaner" button.
- A pop up box will appear advising this process will permanently delete files from your system.
- Click "OK" and it will scan and clean your system.
- Click "exit" when done.
then DEFRAG your C:\ drive.
to help speed up your system.
then let us know how the computer is running.
