Computer clean up sequence

This is for Windows 10 and above computers that do not have a SSD or M2 drive. If you do the following on a computer with SSD or M2 drive, you will quite probably wreck your computer. But don’t believe me. Just do it – and then sue yourself!

At each restart, time how long it takes for Windows to boot up to same point.

1. Get and run CCleaner – it’s free – find it via Google. Run it and delete as much as it can find. If running it on a very old computer click as many options as possible. YouTube videos show how to do it.
2. Run DiskClean-up – YouTube videos show how to use it. Use it for SystemFiles. Delete all.
3. Check for SystemRestore points and delete the lot – YouTube shows how.
4. Run chkdsk – again YouTube shows how.
5. Restart computer.
6. Run Defragmenter – it comes with Windows – this could take up to 10 hours or more on badly fragged drives.
7. After completion restart computer.
8. Only then update Windows.
9. Restart computer.
10. Disable hibernation – what – are you waiting on my tell write 200 words on how to do that? 🙄 Make YouTube your friend – or not!

9. Restart computer.

Why are you still here? Waiting for something while biting your nails? Chrysst!
