So, without further delay, let’s start with how to speed up your Windows 10 laptop.

7+ Tricks to Increase Laptop Speed

1. Disable Startup Apps And Notifications

So right now, I’m using Windows 10, but it should probably work on every version of the window, so the first thing we will do is turn off the startup apps.

What are startup apps?

The startup apps are the ones that start up when you boot your Windows PC

If you want to boot into your PC a bit faster, follow the below steps:

• open the task manager by pressing ctrl+shift and escape
• now go on to the startup tab and disable any unnecessary apps that you find.

Now, after that, we’re going to disable unnecessary notifications

• go on to the start button
• Type in “notification” in the search box
• And disable any notification that you don’t want on your Windows PC or any app
• notification that you find unnecessary.

This method will also increase some processing power and speed up your laptop.

2. Delete Temporary Files

After disabling unnecessary startup apps and notifications, we will delete temporary files from our laptop. For that

• Press the “Windows+R” button

• Now, here, you have to type –

%temp%

• Now you have to press select all and delete all these files.

Don’t worry; none of your data or personal files will be deleted. These are some temporary internet files that your Windows PC used once or twice.

But these can be saved for a day, a week, a month, or even some years, so it’s better to clean up the clutter and just delete all the temporary files.

When deleting these files, just press cancel if you get any errors.

3. Disable Background Apps

The next thing we will do is disable all the background apps. This method will increase the speed of your laptop or desktop PC.

To disable Background apps

• First click on the start button
• In the search bar, type “background.“

• You will see the system settings menu called Background apps
• Now open it up and disable any background applications you do not want to run in the background, which will suck up your speed and performance.

Disabling background apps will slightly increase the laptop’s startup speed.

4. Disk Cleanup

This method will clean the drive on which the window is installed.

For that just follow the given steps-

• open up “My Pc folder”
• Now, here you will see all your hard drives or all the partitions of the hard drive.
• So you have to click on the one that shows a little window button on top of it.
• The main window is installed on the C drive, but this might be a different window in your case.
• NOW here you have to do is select the one which shows the windows icon
• Right-click on it and click on the properties
• Now click on “disk cleanup.”

It will search for unnecessary files that can clean up on your disk.

So let it sit for a while and let it do its job.

Now when it has searched for the files, In your case might be less than 100 MB or it can be more than 40 GB storage space or anything. So just make sure to click select all of these files.

But I would suggest that you leave download on downloads uncheck as it contains the downloaded files that you downloaded from the internet.

So if you don’t want to delete them, just ensure it is unchecked, and then click OK.

It will ask you to delete files click on ok again and it will perform disk cleanup.

Perform this method to clean your disk from time to time to increase your laptop’s speed.

• But if there are no errors just go ahead and click OK

After this, the next step that we are going to do is to click on optimize button and choose C Drive.

So after that, make sure to optimize all of these, click on ok and you can do the same process on all three drives you can repeat this same process on all the drives by going on to properties and doing all the settings that I explained to you.
