Finally, in my experience, I will show you a few things that could be making your computer slow, like:

Running Background Programs – These programs are software applications that are running behind the scenes even when they are not in use. You may not even know that they are running, but they can zap precious memory and slow down your other tasks considerably.

Full Hard Drive – If your hard drive is too full of data, it will not have enough space to perform chores.

Fragmented Hard Drive – When you download and delete programs, you create holes in your hard drive. These holes mean that your PC has to search for the files it needs over greater distance and not necessarily in the order that it needs them.

Left Over Parts – When you install and uninstall Windows programs, they leave behind parts or applications that can slow down your computer. You may even unknowingly delete a file needed for other software applications.

This change in operation can leave holes in our PCs operating procedures or may even leave behind programs that can affect our computer’s performance.
