Tech Update: Tired of a Slow Computer?

Tired of a Slow Computer?
     By Adrian B- Are you sick and tired of your computer running slow and having so much junk on it. There is a way to clean it up without paying a lot of money to have it worked on. I may take flak for giving this little secret up, but as a tech guru I really feel bad for the people who get suckered into paying $80+ to have their computer "tuned" up. Though I'm not saying that a "tune up" isn't sometimes necessary, it is usually over-dramatized and techies often price gouge for the service.  I would recommend a tune-up every 6 months. With ccleaner there are some things that the average consumers can do on there own. This software is available to assist with tuning up a slow computer. Though the program is not a fix-all, I have recommended it to all my computer clients. The program, ccleaner, is the free program that computer fix-it shops don't want consumers to know about. The software interface is simple and user-friendly. Its purpose is to clean out all the clutter from the computer. It also allows the consumer to shut down unnecessary programs that slow  down your PC. However, I caution you not to go too crazy with this program...be careful not to shutdown start-up programs that will cause your PC to crash. A little help from someone who is tech savvy, and you can get your PC running better. Also, Google any questions you may have...you can find a lot of answers online. If you are unsure about shutting down certain programs...don't do it. It's better to be safe than sorry. In any case, you can always run the cleaner  section and keep unwanted temporary internet files or cookies from slowing your PC. If this does not help, there may me more maintenance needed and I would recommend having a tech doing the rest. Please click the above picture to get your free ccleaner download. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them in the comment section. Please Visit: http://the-pc-solution.blogspot.com for more tech related info.
