Tutorials make my life so much easier. Earlier this week, when I was in a rush to get tasks completed, I found myself incredibly frustrated by the speed my computer was operating at. How lucky am I that this weeks session are about PC Maintenance and Security. I love my computer, however, I don't know the first thing about keeping it running well.
Now, after watching the tutorial section (4 short clips all together) titled "Clean Up and Speed Up your PC," I can take better care of my computer. The section suggests three things to clean up and speed up:
1. Un-install programs that are not used
2. Perform Disc Cleanup
3. Perform Windows Cleanup!
I completed all three steps and I can already tell a difference in my computer's speed. I always knew how to un-install programs but both Cleanup programs were new to me. What a helpful tool to have learned!
And of course, I watched the tutorials about organization. RoboForm! Awesome program I just discovered! This session has made me very aware of how "unsafe" my passwords are. RoboForm is the perfect program to help me make that change and keep track of my new passwords. I have already shared this with my father and he has downloaded it as well. I am continually surprised by all of the helpful sites out there that I need to take advantage of.
These tutorials are a great resource and I am excited to go through all of the tutorials. I have realized that I really have not taken the best care of my computer as far as maintenance is concerned.
Glad to hear you are taking our advice! It is a good thing to remember.
