Computer Performance - How to Improve Computer Performance Easily by Removing the Duplicate Files
We know that there are many ways to improve computer performance such as regularly run a virus scan
, uninstall the unwanted programs, defragment the hard drive and so on. But here, we will discuss how to effectively improve computer speed by removing duplicate files. First of all, let's learn together what will be caused by duplicate files and how they affect computer performance. Once there are large amount of these files on the computer, lots of hard disk space will be taken up, which stops us from successfully storing our favorite files on the computer. Furthermore, normally they are scattered and located in different hard disk, making the hard drive more and more fragmented. This will extend the disk visiting time and result in system freeze-ups, slowness and crashes. So it is needed to regularly remove file duplicate files (no matter in which format) to improve computer performance. Normally, we can remove them by going to Start, Search, and then list all files with the same file names / extension. Once all files are listed, we can compare the files and delete the duplicate one manually. But to tell the truth, this will cost very longer time and can not exactly solve the problem. So to my own experience, the best way considered by most PC users to get rid of these files is to use a duplicate cleaner like Duplicate File Cleaner, which is very effective and one of the best software to remove file duplicate because of its advanced analysis technology. You can follow the steps below to easily remove the duplicate files: 1. Run Duplicate File Cleaner, and select the desired tab (basic, outlook, music, picture). 2. Select Drives or Directories you want to scan on the left side of the interface. 3. Select Scan mode and Scan Filter for Duplicates on the right side of the interface. 4. Click "Scan now" to proceed 5. Once scan finishes, you can select simply click "Delete" button to remove the duplicates and the default option is to move them to Recycle Bin. (Note: this process will delete only duplicates and a removal to an assigned folder allows you to easily restore the deleted files properly if needed.) With the removal of the duplicate files, we can greatly speed up the disk visiting time and improve computer performance. So if you are eager to have a faster computer, please do not miss this point in your daily life.Computer Performance - How to Improve Computer Performance Easily by Removing the Duplicate Files
