Software Maintenance

Disk Defragmenting

By using the defragmenter, you are aligning the information in logical order. This saves hard drive space and increases hard drive performance.

Disk Cleanup

By using the disk cleanup, you get rid of a lot of temporary files that could be slowing your system down.

Virus Scanning

A virus is a program that can be downloaded onto your computer or network from the Internet. Some can be harmless, but most others are programmed to destroy your system, delete files and disable startup programs like an anti virus. By using a virus scanner you prevent these files from being downloaded and remove them from your system before they can do anything.

Removing Programs

Removing software from your computer using the Uninstall utility can speed up system performance, it frees up disk space and the registry.
