Have you noticed your computer running a bit slower than normal?<\/p>\n

You\u2019re not alone.<\/p>\n

No matter what kind of computer you own, it will slow with age.<\/p>\n

Over time, inadequate RAM, overstuffed registries, and file junk will make your computer feel twice its age. And when you\u2019ve splashed out all your savings on a new machine, it can leave you feeling cheated.<\/p>\n

Every new application, file, or change to your system influences how well it performs \u2013 the more you do, the slower it becomes. Within a year, you could find that fresh-out-the-box snappy performance has grown sluggish and unresponsive.<\/p>\n

Thankfully, you can fix all of the most common causes of a slow computer with Avira Free System Speedup. It will increase the speed of your machine, free up hard drive space, and even protect your privacy \u2013 best of all, it\u2019s FREE.<\/p>\n

Why your computer slows with age <\/b><\/h3>\n

Whenever you install a new application, visit a website, or save a new file, your computer keeps a record. It saves application files, cookies, temporary internet files, and makes changes to the system registry \u2013 all so you can enjoy doing what you love.<\/p>\n

But, your computer doesn\u2019t know when it can delete these files or undo these changes. As time passes, and you install new software and continue browsing or saving files to your hard drive, your computer becomes overburdened. Unless you delete those unwanted files and reverse unwanted changes, your computer will run at a snail\u2019s pace.<\/p>\n

Insufficient RAM can also cause problems \u2013 especially if you like to open and use several applications at once. Both software and system processes use RAM as a storage buffer so they can run quickly, but if there\u2019s not much space left (if other programs are using it, for example), the program has to wait until more RAM becomes available.<\/p>\n

The same applies to hard disk or SSD space. If you\u2019ve maxed out the hard drive, your computer has to do a lot more searching to find the files you need when you need them. It\u2019s easier to find your car on the street outside your home than it is in a multi-storey car park, for example. So clearing out your hard drive of unwanted files can help speed up your machine.<\/p>\n

How to fix your slow computer<\/b><\/h3>\n

As you\u2019ve seen, the main causes of a slow computer are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. junk files.<\/li>\n
  2. old registry entries.<\/li>\n
  3. a lack of hard drive space or RAM.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Avira Free System Speedup<\/a> can help fix all three problems.<\/p>\n

    First, you\u2019ll get a full system report detailing the performance of your computer, including scores on disk space, speed, and privacy.<\/p>\n
