Nowadays laptops have become an important part of our life. Be it work, studies, or entertainment, it becomes difficult to do anything without a laptop. But sometimes our laptop starts running slowly, which is very annoying. If your laptop has also become slow, then there is no need to panic. Here are some easy tricks by which you can fix your laptop at home.
Reboot the laptop
If you have not turned off the laptop for a long time, then reboot it once. Rebooting refreshes the system. Many times it fixes minor problems.
Check for updates
If there are no updates to the operating system and apps on your laptop, it can become slow. Update all the software on your laptop. For this, first, go to Settings. After this click on Update & Security. You can do this by going to Windows Update.
Close unnecessary programs
Some apps and programs keep running on the laptop without any need. Which puts pressure on the processor and RAM. Close them from Task Manager.
Perform Disk Cleanup
Unwanted files accumulated in your hard drive can slow down the laptop. For this, use the Disk Cleanup tool and remove unwanted files.
Perform Virus Scan
Sometimes the laptop can also slow down due to viruses. Scan the laptop with antivirus software and remove the virus.
Reduce graphics settings
If you do gaming or video editing, then the graphics settings can be of high range, due to which the laptop can slow down. Reducing the graphics settings can improve the speed.
If your laptop is not working properly even after following these steps, then you can go to the service center of the company to which your laptop belongs.
