And mostly web browser would just directly get stuck there or crash down when I open many tabs and sites at the same time. Well, even I open some big programs while doing any other tasks like editing on Word or Excel document, my PC will get frozen a while and then a prompt pops up and says Windows explorer has stop working, and then I have wait for a few minutes until it goes back to normal. I guess there should be many junks and useless files generated in my PC and I need to clean to speed up PC’s performance, but I don’t know how to start and where to locate and clean up all junks and useless files. My stupid operation even would cause severe computer problem. I am not confident with it. Could you please help me?

What We should Know about Windows Registry?

Windows registry is essentially a massive internal database that contains crucial settings and configurations of programs and applications like system settings, system hardware, installed software and drivers and profile information. It is the recorder of all the acts of your pc. For example, it will record the URL of the site you browsed, the paths of pictures, documents, files or programs and applications you opened and also the details of programs you just have installed or uninstalled etc. All the acts you perform will be generated as entries in registry editor. What Registry records will be applied by system components, third party applications, hardware, user profiles, and other lots of system things.

Why We Have to Clean Up Window Registry? Is it Really helpful to Speed up PC’s Performance?

Windows indeed keeps updating the registry and fixing loopholes, but it can’t neaten or sort out itself well. And also entries will be easily added in registry by changes happen on computer while you copy, delete or move files, open documents, web browsers or other programs, surf on the Internet, change some settings of system or Internet, install new drivers or programs and uninstall unwanted programs etc. Hence, as the time passes, many old entries will gradually litter and pile up registry when you install and uninstall programs or perform any other tasks on PC.

What will Slow Down Phone Performance

Usually when phone users buy a new phone, they will find that there have been many unknown apps installed into phone system. Those apps may come from carriers like T-Mobile or AT&T and do on. These annoying and unwanted apps are called bloatware or capware such as Play Newstand (found on every Android phone), S Health, S Voice, OneDrive, Whatsapp, Instagram, T-Mobile or AT&T carrier apps, and more. Those apps are overspread on the phone screen, and you don’t know which one is useful, but actually almost of them are not used by you. However, although you don’t run it, it still occupy large phone system space, which will greatly slow down phone performance as time goes on, as you also need to save other things you really want into phone. For example, your pictures, music, videos, games and apps need to be saved or installed into phone. Anyway, when more apps are stored into system, the phone will act in a sluggish way.

How to Make Android Phone Be Faster

To speed up the phone, you need to uninstall those unwanted apps. However, when you try to free up more system space by uninstalling those unwanted apps to fast phone, you will find they are not allowed to be uninstalled. In this case, you need to remove unwanted crapware with rooting. Root is the ultimate administrative privilege that will let users have the right to do the following tasks like cleaning junks, clear spam apps or optimize system and so on. But actually the phone manufacturers keep root directories off-limits to users by default. They lock these directories so you can’t brick your phone by accidentally deleting their “bloatware” apps. That’s why you cannot remove the bloatware randomly. Rooting your device will let you experience the full potential of your device. You can remove the apps you don’t want and install the app you want freely. Junks will be cleaned timely. And the phone will run faster. And since there are not so apps working in the background system, the phone performance and battery life will be improved, as less unwanted apps will reduce power usage.

In a word, if you want to personalize your android phone and get a new experience on it, you’re suggested to root your phone first. Rooting will let you freely uninstall bloatware, unwanted apps, clean system junks, remove spam apps to free up more system and speed up phone performance even prolong the battery life.
