Simple steps to clean your Computer Operating System

Many of us use Windows Operating system with lots of programs running. We open many files everyday and play around. We listen to music and see photos etc. Now there is nothing wrong doing this but these activities will create more unwanted temporary files in the system which will eat up your disk space and creates file clutter. This will decrease your computers performance.


Here are some tips which can be used by any computer user to keep their system clean. Removing temporary files is a quick and easy task that can help save disk space and keep your PC clean of file clutter.

1. Click on Start and then Run.
2. In the text box in the Run window, type “%Temp%” and click OK. A folder full of files and other folders will appear. These are unwanted files and can be deleted safely.
3. Again Click on Start and then Run.
4. In the text box in the Run window, type “recent” and click OK. A folder full of files and other folders will appear. These are unwanted files and can be deleted safely.
5. You can select all the files to delete using “Ctl+A” and then “Shift+Delete” keys to make sure the files are deleted permanently.

Note:
1: If you’re prompted that there are hidden files in this folder, just click on OK to bypass the message.


2: While deleting temporary files you may want to delete files in small number of files as some of the temp files are used by some programs do not worry if some files are not deleted. Select small number of files say 15 files at a time and then use “Ctl+A” and then “Shift+Delete” keys to make sure the files are deleted permanently. Use these until all the files are deleted.

Restart your computer once and now your computer is cleaned.
