What are the Softwares for Optimizing Windows for best performance?

Advanced System Optimizer
Two in antivirus+system optimizer
  • Solves registry issues and vulnerabilities after scanning your PC
  • It also have an inbuilt antivirus which is very small in size but is not trustable as it may not be able to scan all the antivirus.
  • Its other benefit is a gaming mode, and ASO is the only optimisation tool to offer this. Any game you specify is run in a virtual desktop, so you can switch between it and your real desktop quickly. 
Norton Utilities
 
  • You'll find a Registry cleaner, service management, defragmentation tools and start-up tool.
  • One nice touch is that Norton can apply fixes instantly without a system reboot thanks to a Refresh Windows setting.
  • Norton Antivirus are considered to be one of the best antiviruses in market,but its tuneup utilities doesn't stand upto the mark.

 CCleaner
  • It has tools to clean drive,remove broken shortcuts, defragment disk,registry cleaner,web browser cleaner,etc.
  • It also has a tool known as drive wiper which takes long time but performs complete cleanup of the system.
  • Inspite of all these features,it doesn't improve the performance of the system.

 TuneUp Utilities
  • In all of the tuneup utilities,the performance optimization done by Tune Up Utilities is remarkable and magnificient.
  • It have many features ranging from registry cleaner to disk defragment.
  • And three modes of operation:-
  1. Turbo Mode.
  2. Economy Mode.
  3. Standard Mode.
  • Turbo mode improves the system performance many times.
                                       Ashampoo WinOptimizer
  • The software's cramped interface includes a handy summary of your system's hardware and settings, along with maintenance categories, plus CPU and RAM speedometers.
  • Optional settings like Live-Tuner and Hibernation File can be switched on and off from here, but WinOptimizer offers no explanation as to what these toggles actually do.
  • It feels like a piece of software that will benefit office and internet users more than it will gamers, and a decent Peacekeeper score backs this up. 



How to Optimize Windows for best performance?




We generally get mad at our PCs(Personal Computers), the reasons can be any of the following:-
  1. Slow startup generally when it takes more then 60 seconds.
  2. Slow shutdown Or Sometimes when an error message pops-up while shutdown.
  3. And sometimes viruses are the cause.
Today I will be providing you with some simple steps to boost up your PC startup speed----->>>>>

At computer's startup many other programs along with the OS are loaded into memory due to which we experience slow startup.
Some of these programs are:-
  1. Antivirus's which are generally huge and bulky.
  2. Audio & Video drivers.
  3. Also while installing some softwares we knowingly or unknowingly configure that program to start at startup,but these programs increase your startup time.
So to speed up your computer you just need to stop some of these programs from starting  at startup.
We can't risk by stopping antivirus to start at startup,nor can we stop audio and video drivers to load at startup because they are important.
Then only remained is the other set of programs which is  of not much importance to start at startup.So to stop these programs follow the steps below:--->>>
  1. Go to Start 
  2. Now click on either Run and then type msconfig or directly type in search box and hit Enter.
  3. System Configuration Utility dialog box appears.
  4. Go to startup tab .In that tab uncheck those programs which you didn't want to start at startup then click on apply.
  5. Now go to Services tab in the bottom check Hide All Microsoft Services then all non Microsoft services list will be displayed.
  6. Now click on Disable all button and then click on apply and finally click on Ok.
  7. Now restart your Computer you will notice increase in your startup speed.
Also you can defragment your disk,though it takes little long to complete but it increases the computer speed considerably.Fllow the steps below:-

  1. Double Click on My Computer.
  2. Now right click on the drive in which your Windows is installed(Generally it is the C Drive) and click on properties.
  3. Now click on Tools tab and then click on Defragment now... button,a dialog box appears.Now click on Defragement Disk.
  4. Be patient, it will take a time to defragment depending on space filled on the  drive.
  5. You must defragment your disk frequently when you install a large or bulky softwares on your system.  
  6. If you still having slow PC problem then download TuneUp Utilities 2014 from the link below:

    NOTE:But if you use turbo mode in tuneup utilities then you will experience that your performance has been boosted.But you will notice that visual effects would be reduced as they take more space in memory tuneup utility disables it.
