Do you remember the day you bought your new PC with Windows installed? It was quick as lightning. It only took about ten seconds to boot up. When you opened the Start menu or the file load/save dialogs, they appeared
instantly. But, after a year of heavy use, you now realize that your PC has some serious performance issues. It takes longer and longer to boot each time you start it. When you open the Start menu, file
dialog boxes or other components powered by Windows Shell also always seem to take longer. Your computer is grinding its hard drive seemingly forever as if it’s wondering if you’re worth seeing what you’re seeing.
I had expected to see.
Modern computers are very complex systems. They are very similar to the human body. By consuming large amounts of uncertified products of unknown origin, you greatly increase your blood cholesterol level.
quickly. Soon, you would have an obesity problem. You couldn’t run fast either. This is the same reason why your computer slows down over time. The truth is that there are no certified software products for
computers. All so-called software certificates can only guarantee the authenticity of a software product and not its quality. There are no computer medicine organizations that can certify software. even big
Software companies produce software that can damage the integrity of your system and leave some “cholesterol” in the veins of your computer. And we won’t even discuss software from unknown vendors you download from
The Internet!
Unlike humans, computers can have many lifetimes. All you need to do is format your hard drive and install the system from scratch. However, this is not a good solution. When you format your drives, you lose all your
installed programs, preferences and system integrity. Is there another solution? If you need a personal doctor for your computer to provide the required treatment without killing the patient first, you might want to
try SmartPC from SmartPCTools. It is an all-in-one drug package for your system. You can download it using the following link:

There are two versions, Personal and Professional. They differ only by the number of functions available. I use the Professional version. Therefore, I will walk you through its features. You can then decide
yourself, whether you need the Professional or the Personal version.
Let’s go back to the “cholesterol” problem. What is considered bad “cholesterol” for your PC and where are the veins? The Registry is the blood system of your computer. All other organs depend on it. the whole vital system
the information is stored in this unified database and all Windows applications poll this information. But there is a downside. Normally, users log into their Windows with full administrator privileges. You need
administrator privileges to install new software and configure your system and network settings.
All the apps you run are also given full administrator privileges. This means that
Any program you start can change almost any section of your Windows Registry, including the settings of other applications. This is how, for example, malicious Internet scripts modify Home and
Search for pages in your Internet Explorer. Over time, even normal applications from trusted vendors leave some records in your Registry that can cause a “obesity” problem. Most computer programs
never completely uninstall! Users rarely complain about such issues, and as such, the problem is often ignored by developers. They don’t seem to be concerned about such things.
I have no complaints, no problem. But this is a
issue. After a year of heavy use, your Registry becomes really heavy. It takes up more memory and each application takes longer to access the Registry. This can reduce the performance of many applications.
and increase your startup time. But the worst thing is that some of the remains in your Registry point to damaged or non-existent objects. Here’s an example: When you right-click a file in Windows Explorer, a message appears.
the context menu appears. It is called “contextual” because of the file type specific actions displayed in this menu.
When you install a program, you can add its drivers to system menus like the menu that appears
for a file. You probably have some drivers added by your image viewers (“Open with…”), archives (“Send to…”, “Compress with…”), printer drivers and more. If some of the Registry entries, such as these,
points to objects that don’t exist, Windows will try to find them every time. There are also some Registry hives that contain programs to run at Windows startup. They are not displayed in the “Home” section of
your Start menu and you can’t remove them manually. Windows will attempt to start them at every boot.
Now for the treatment. Put on a white doctor’s uniform and run SmartPC, your scalpel. The interface is very easy to understand. Click on the “Repair” button and you will see two options available. let’s start with
Registry cleaning. In addition to fixing the problems described above, SmartPC will scan and fix, or remove if necessary, broken links, device drivers, ActiveX components, fonts, uninstall entries, and more.
As a result, you will have a compact, fragment-free database with no stale or broken entries, resulting in higher overall system performance.
Not all problems come from the Registry. There is a special type of file, known as a “shortcut”. Your desktop and Start menu consist almost entirely of shortcuts. When you access your start menu or when
your desktop is loading, Windows looks for the target objects referenced by your shortcuts. When a shortcut contains a broken link or points to a non-existent object, Windows will try to find it.
object, retrieve its icon, etc. The second option available in the “Repair” section SmartPC allows you to scan and repair all broken shortcuts on your disks.
Now, let’s move on to the “Clean up” section of SmartPC. This section allows you to clear all the junk files accumulated on your drives. Sometimes applications “forget” to delete temporary files, and sometimes
leave temporary files due to software bugs. SmartPC will empty the temporary file directories. You can also scan your drives to find temporary files by extension. If you are concerned about security and
identity theft, you may want to clean temporary internet files, remove cookies, IE data autofill, etc.
In the “Optimize” section, you will also find several useful tools to increase your system performance and adjust some hidden settings. “Hidden” means that these settings are not available through the Control
Standard Windows panel or dialog boxes. For example, you can select whether you want to sign in to your Windows account at startup without entering your password, or whether you want Windows to display the login.
screen with a password request. The startup and uninstall entry editors also provide some advanced features that are not available in the standard Windows setup applet.
The “Boost Windows” option provides a tool that constantly monitors your memory, removes unusable blocks, and defragments usable blocks for faster access. If enabled, it runs invisibly and optimizes your system
memory. Also, this tool sets the priority of maximum processor usage in the active window. When you’re watching a movie, you probably don’t want it to pause when another app is doing something in the background.
Typically, all running applications share processor time equally. But if you want to maximize a multimedia application, you need to give it exclusive access to your processor.
Does your computer experience the problem of “obesity”? Is it full of junk files, broken shortcuts, and outdated registry values? If so, you need treatment!
