Simple steps to speed up Boot Time

There are Windows tips which require specialized software such as registry cleaner so that a user comes out of the process alive. However, other steps can be easily followed using the tools provided by Windows.

Before doing anything, it is important for you to ascertain that you reach the same place from where you have started the process (initial point). In case things don’t happen accordingly. You can make sure that you reach the initial point by setting up System Restore Point.

Let us begin with simple things.

Are all those fonts that have been installed by various programs used by you really required? In case they arent, then you should remove the fonts that are of no use.

Take help of a free font manager that will assist you in performing this task conveniently.

Whenever your computer will start, other applications will also begin to run with it.

Welcoming antivirus software, firewall, etc. are some of them.

On the other hand, there are others that fall into the category that our software developer thinks users always require these programs available without any need to start them.

Programs including iTunes, Skype, webcam software, some sort of an instant messenger service, the keylogger installed to keep an eye on the naughty activities of children, Adobe Acrobat readers update service.

It is convenient to have their all-time availability.

Some of the applications could be seen at the bottom of the screen near the clock. Others could be seen only upon checking the Task Manager.

Here, the Windows Msconfig program will help you by helping you in checking and eliminating such programs. You may find all the autoloading programs, which start as your computer starts booting up,listed in the Startup tab.

However, the major problem of Msconfig is that it never gives detailed information. So, a great deal of research is required to know if the programs listed by it are the one really needed by your PC or are merely “nice to have” programs.

Next, there is the Windows Registry.

Applications use the Windows Registry as a dumping ground or storage area.

Windows Registry apparently stores each and everything.

Usually it is the place that stores recently opened files on your menus. Windows Registry has the size and starup position of user’s favorite programs. Like too much fonts reduce the loading process of the computer, keeping too much things (that too of no use) in the registry also does the same and you will never get a fast PC.

Even though it is feasible to clean up Windows registry through built-in Regedit program (similar steps are to be followed as in case of Msconfig), you need great tolerance level. In case you take any wrong step, Windows will mess up or even stop working. So it is advisable to leave this job for the software.
