Why Is My Computer Running Slow? – These Are The Reasons and Solutions

I always receive phone calls from friends, families and work colleagues, few minutes into the conversation, they pause and ask me this same questions I have had to answer 2000 times in my career “Why Is My Computer Running Slow?”.

The simplest way to deal with this question is to use a simple analogy, and my favorite analogy is a car. People are familiar with car services. If you service car on a regular basis, you won’t have to worry about problems with the car, and your car will performs more efficiently.

Same thing applies to our PC. Over a long period of usage people couldn’t care less about “servicing” their system. Some of my friends and family don’t even have anti spyware installed on their system.

It should be illegal not to have antivirus, anti spyware, or firewall installed on your computer in this day and age.Previously, these malicious software (spyware, adware, keyloggers, virus etc) were developed by smart kids. These people were bored, and most of them hated Microsoft (I don’t know why – but most likely because Microsoft sells lots of software).

Today these malicious programs are created by huge network of criminals for profit. They develop spyware software to spy on your browsing habit. They use adware to display advertisement to your browsing habit, the more adverts you see and click on, the more money they make. On the other hand if they corrupt your system with a malicious software, they can also sell you another program to remove the software, because only them know how to remove what they installed on your computer.

If you are still asking yourself “why is my computer running slow”, then do yourself a favor, remove all the malicious (rogue) software on your computer, delete all the junk files, fix the computer registry, remove the start up items and maximize the memory use on your computer. Sometimes none of this will work especially if you have a very old computer. In that case I suggest you buy a new computer.

If you do not have a clue of how to fix all the computer problems I stated above, I suggest you watch my video tutorials that shows you step by step how to improve the efficiency of any computer system with point and click solutions.
