The accumulation of remnants of deleted applications, unnecessary registry entries, temporary files, logs that remain after Windows updates and programs and other garbage reduces the performance of the computer. If all this is not removed, over time the PC becomes so slow and annoying that the user cannot stand it and reinstalls the system. However, after a couple of months everything returns to normal - the brakes, low FPS, and all sorts of glitches. Meanwhile, the problem can be solved simply - it is enough to do preventive maintenance 1-2 times a month using a computer cleaning program. We will talk about them today.
We have prepared a brief overview of the capabilities of the best Windows utilities that can speed up your system by up to 50-70% relative to the original level. All of them are free and designed for new users.
CCleaner is one of the most popular Windows cleaning utilities in user ratings. And one of the safest. Cleaning the registry and applications in CCleaner is configured in such a way that, even if you try, you will not be able to delete something important, thereby disrupting the performance of the system. In this part, the program can be used by novice users without fear. However, it also has functions that it is better not to touch without proper knowledge. One of them is erasing disks. If you accidentally confuse it with Disk Cleanup (Windows' built-in optimization tool), you may lose some important data forever, as the program permanently destroys it.
Proper use of CCleaner can speed up your computer by 5-50%. The result depends on the initial clutter of the system and the amount of information on the disks.
All application functions are divided into 4 groups, and groups into subgroups. The first group is “Cleaning”, includes sections:
Clearing both removes only temporary and unnecessary data, without affecting the main one.
The second group - “Register”, has no subgroups. Here is a tool for fixing registry errors and cleaning it from garbage.
The third group - “Service”, contains the following sections:
The fourth group is “Settings”. It includes:
CCleaner supports many languages, including Russian, Ukrainian, Kazakh. You can download it in both installation and portable versions. The latter can be launched, for example, from a flash drive.
Wise Care 365 is an impressive package of utilities for optimizing your computer, most of which are available for free (the application is available in two versions - free and premium, in the free version some items are blocked). Like CCleaner, Wise Care 365 scans the system for garbage, errors, incorrect (from the developers’ point of view) settings and makes it possible to fix them - both individually and “in bulk”.
With this program, the user can clean and optimize Windows without thinking about the purpose of a particular function. Just run the scan and click the “Fix” button after it.
Wise Care 365 features are also divided into groups. The first tab, “Check,” is intended for a comprehensive search and elimination of problems throughout the entire system. The following parameters are checked:
After scanning, the program determines the PC’s “health” index and offers to correct errors with the click of one button.
On the same first tab there is a panel of additional utilities. Available in the free version:
The second tab, “Cleaning”, contains several subsections:
The third tab – “Optimization” – contains:
The “Privacy” tab contains the following subsections:
On the last tab - “System”, the application shows running processes and a list of PC equipment.
Wise Care 365, like Ccleaner, has been translated into Russian and is available in installation and portable versions.
The Windows Cleaner utility includes tools to rid the system of unnecessary files, registry entries and unused programs that can be launched manually and on a schedule. Of the optimization tools, only startup management is present here. There are no options here aimed at increasing computer performance (not counting cleaning tools).
Windows Cleaner saves a history of previously performed cleanings. If you accidentally delete an important registry entry or file, the program allows you to undo the last operations - perform a system restore to a checkpoint.
The Cleaning section of Windows Cleaner contains two tabs: Files and Registry. The first one contains a list of unnecessary file system objects, the second one contains registry entries. The program supports 4 cleaning modes:
After scanning, Windows Cleaner displays a list of objects to be removed. Strange, but the user does not have the ability to remove any file or entry from it. You can only exclude an entire group of objects from scanning (temporary files, memory dumps, report logs, etc.).
The “Service” section contains the “Startup” and “Uninstall programs” tabs.
“History” stores records of previously performed operations.
In “Settings” you set the cleaning parameters according to the schedule: interval, time, mode.
Windows Cleaner was developed in Russia. The official website has reference information on working with the program in Russian, as well as a form feedback with the developer.

Hello all friends!
If you care about fast work computer, then at least every three months you need to carry out a global cleaning of the system from various types garbage. If you don't do this, your computer will simply slow down.
After using your computer for a long time, a lot of garbage accumulates. By getting rid of it, you can free up gigabytes of free space on your hard drive. Let’s clear the disk of garbage in three steps. This article is for beginners. Use it and you will really notice the difference BEFORE and AFTER cleaning hard drive. The most interesting thing is that we will get rid of the Temp folder. Learn more about it:
Cleaning the system drive “C” in Windows 7 is a fairly simple procedure, but before using the programs, let’s prepare our computer. For this we will use standard means systems. Let's go to " Start» —>» Computer"and we see our disks. Point the mouse at drive C and press the right mouse button. Go to properties and run disk cleanup.
The cleaning program will start, it will evaluate the volume, and prepare the files for deletion.
Attention! If you are cleaning the disk for the first time, this may take a long time, up to several hours. Therefore, for especially “Neglected Patients” it is necessary to perform cleaning at night.
We check all the boxes before cleaning. Look in the trash, maybe you still have the files you need there.

The preparation of the system is completed, let's move on to the “heavy artillery” - we will use a powerful program to remove residual debris.
We continue cleaning. And it will help us with this cool program its name is CCleaner. This is the most popular utility among garbage cleaners. Download the portable (portable version does not require installation) program. The download will start automatically. Launch the program, click " Analyze" (Analysis), after scanning " Run Cleaner“(Cleaning). The program language changes like this: Options» —> « Settings» —> « Language» —> « Russian«.
You can also clean the registry, I think you’ll figure it out - the interface couldn’t be simpler. Let's move on to the next step.
The program is called FreeSpacer and install it on your computer. I'll say a few words about this wonderful program.
I have been using FreeSpacer for a very long time, what I like about it is that there are no complicated settings, it all comes down to two actions: search and delete, it is distributed free of charge and does not delete anything unnecessary. I also want to say about its effectiveness; it removed my friend’s 20 gigs of garbage and that's not the limit.
Launch the program and click " Search.» There should be no other programs or background applications running on the system.
Read what cleaning Windows 7 means. When it should be done. All ways to clean the registry and junk files. Useful programs and simple instructions.
Even the most professional users have to clean their operating systems from debris from time to time. If you have installed it on your computer, you need to constantly monitor its status. Microsoft no longer releases regular updates for this version (only basic security packages are available), so you will have to fix the seven yourself.
Let's look at how you can quickly and without harm to the system clean Windows 7 and significantly speed up tasks.
System freezes are always the result of user actions. The exception is those cases when the computer does not support the installed OS: the available hardware components cannot ensure the normal execution of the program code.
If immediately after Windows installations 7, everything worked fine and very quickly, but over time, frequent freezes began, programs began to turn off, and the system itself started very slowly, all this suggests that it was time to clean up unnecessary data and processes.
Freezes appear in the following cases:
A comprehensive cleaning of your Windows 7 computer will help return the OS to normal operation. There are two ways to get rid of unnecessary data and processes:
First, we recommend performing the simplest steps. As a rule, this is enough to return the system to normal. If you continue to encounter slow work, try installing third-party utilities. They will help not only free up disk space, but also clean the registry, analyze the operation of all system modules and fix errors.
The first and easiest way to clean your computer from junk on Windows 7 is to work with a standard hard drive file removal service. It automatically detects and deletes temporary files, various error reports, thumbnails, Trash contents, and other system junk.
To get started with the Disk Cleanup service, follow the instructions:
This service is often very slow. All due to severe clutter of disk space. Do not cancel the action and wait until the removal is completed. As a result, you can free up several gigabytes at once.
Temporary files are entries that are created by all applications that are launched. The computer will no longer need this data, so it needs to be deleted from time to time. To perform the procedure manually, you need to go to the root folder of drive C. Open “My Computer” and click on the drive icon.
Go to the path C:\\Windows\Temp. A directory can contain several hundred files. You can select all elements using the keyboard shortcut CTRLA. Then delete the contents and empty the Trash. Next, restart your computer and check if it runs faster.
Sometimes the Temp folder may not appear on the system. To do this, you need to enable its visibility:
Often the cause of insufficient space on drive C may not be temporary files, but many installed applications or games. If you leave unused programs on your computer, this will result in a pop-up window like this:
Follow the instructions to remove programs on your Windows 7 computer:
Please note that using the list of installed applications you can analyze your work with the software. The “Usage” column displays the startup frequency (Frequently, Rarely, Never). With the help of this information, it will be easier for you to figure out what software should not be stored on the system.
If you are deleting a game, we recommend that you also check the Program Files folder on drive C. If, after uninstallation, a folder with the name of the game remains in it, delete it. Thus, developers often leave cached files and mission progress records in case the user decides to reinstall the software.
The reason may also be the load on the RAM. After deleting data from the hard drive, we recommend moving on to working with the OP.
All processes that occur in RAM are regulated by the Task Manager. With this system utility, users can view a list of running processes and the programs that created them. Also, you can manage system startup and user accounts.
To launch Task Manager in Windows 7, open Start and enter the name of the utility in the search bar. The system will immediately display the result. Open the field as shown in the image below:
Another way to launch the Manager is to use the Run window. You can open it using the WinR button combination. Enter the TASKMGR command in the text field and click OK.
To edit the list of programs and services that are loaded with the OS, go to the “ ” tab. Uncheck the boxes next to the processes for which you want to disable autorun. This will not harm the system, because in Windows 7 the Task Manager does not display services that are important for the operation of the system. This means you won't be able to kill a system process by mistake.
Removing it from Startup will not harm the program or game in any way. They will remain installed on the computer, they will only stop turning on when the desktop starts. In the future, you can enable the program yourself using its shortcut.
If the computer turns on quickly enough, but some time after you start working, you encounter severe OS freezes, check the running processes. In the Task Manager, open the appropriate tab and analyze which tasks are consuming a large amount of RAM. Close the most time-consuming objects by clicking the "End Process" button.
Advanced SystemCare is a program for Windows cleaning 7, which allows you to perform all system optimization options in one window, from deleting files from the hard drive to adjusting RAM.
A special feature of the application is its ability to monitor system performance in real time. The utility identifies errors and allows you to eliminate them in a few mouse clicks.
The application interface is divided into several tabs:
The Red Button interface is completely Russified and very easy to use. All tabs are conveniently divided into the main modules of the computer - CPU and RAM, HDD, detected junk files and data for cleaning the Windows 7 registry.
Go to each tab one by one and check the box next to the actions you want to take. Using each of these actions will speed up your overall performance. To apply the changes, click on “OK” in the lower right corner.
AusLogics Boost Speed is another one good program for cleaning Windows computer 7. Its features:
The task of Disk Cleaner is to optimize Windows 7 by cleaning junk files and records on the hard drive. Unlike the standard cleaning utility, this cleaner will help detect all hidden folders that are inaccessible to the average user.
Among the features of the program, it is worth highlighting the effective detection of registry errors, useless files and incorrect shortcuts. Also, the system analyzes how each problem affects the speed of Windows.
By pressing the “Fix” button, the built-in assistant is launched, which independently corrects the system without user intervention. After using the utility, it is recommended to restart your computer.
It is recommended to start cleaning garbage in Windows 7 with a standard utility for deleting temporary files from your hard drive. If this does not help speed up the work, we recommend that you resort to help third party software. Before starting the installation of any utility, do not forget to scan its installer with an antivirus.
Which of the programs mentioned above helped you clean Windows 7? Write your options useful applications that may help solve the problem.
After several weeks of running Windows, a significant number of temporary files accumulate (application caches, remnants from installers and remote programs, history of Internet browsers). If you do not periodically get rid of such objects, and the size of the system disk is limited to 20-50 GB, then the operating system begins to work slower due to the fact that the files are fragmented - parts of one are located in several places, or even several dozen places. The situation becomes especially dire when there are several hundred megabytes of free space left - the computer in such cases works very slowly.
In this article we will figure out how to clean your computer from junk files using the example of specific programs that run on all Windows.
First of all, you need to use the tool offered by Windows developers - this is a cleaner integrated into the OS. It doesn't work very well, to put it mildly. You shouldn't constantly use a built-in program to get rid of junk, but it's still better than nothing.
The command is also entered in Start. In the same Start you can write “cleanup” and launch the “Disk Cleanup” application.
As a result, the computer will be freed from several hundred gigabytes of garbage, but not from everything. For comprehensive cleaning of temporary files, you should use specialized applications.
The most popular free cleaner for Windows that works on a computer with any version of the Windows operating system.
Along with file system gets clogged and system registry. CCleaner allows you to safely remove junk keys. Thanks to this, the registry will decrease in size, and the speed of access to it will increase, albeit slightly.
A similar application with the function of performing disk defragmentation. Wise Disk Cleaner is as easy to use as CCleaner.
Unlike CCleaner, you can exclude items from removal, such as browser passwords. You are required to check the boxes that need to be deleted and click the clean button.
Cleaning the registry is also an important criterion for the fast operation of Windows on any computer, so we will focus on the most popular tool for cleaning it. Although working with Registry Cleaner is no more difficult than with previous products.
The most popular scavenger for Android has been ported to a computer running an operating system from Microsoft. Although the program interface has not been translated into Russian, its operation does not raise any questions.
Be careful and carefully monitor the files you delete, despite the high level of security of the utility - it is still completely new and may inadvertently delete an important system file or one needed for proper operation program file.
