The best computer accelerator. Speeding up your laptop

Whatever one may say, after long and faithful work, the computer begins to malfunction. It could be unstable work devices or low performance. But don’t despair, because more than one computer speedup program has been developed to help solve your problem.

It is these utilities that we will talk about in our article.

Computer Accelerator. It’s not for nothing that network users consider this utility one of the best. It allows you to optimize computers and laptops running Windows 7, 8, 10. This accelerator is absolutely safe and compatible with all latest versions OS. The program has a nice interface and a number of useful functions: searching and deleting large and duplicate data, cleaning the registry, uninstalling programs, etc. I would like to note that you should not spare money on licensed version, since the result of the application will make you very happy.
Advanced SystemCare Free. Another program to speed up your computer is joining our top list. This is a powerful complex that combines powerful functionality and ease of use. It allows you to troubleshoot registry problems, remove junk and other unnecessary files, clean browser information and find malware. Advanced System Care Free automatically checks for updates. The program is completely free and also Russified. Professional users can perform a deep clean that takes significantly longer than a quick clean. There are versions for Windows 10, 7, 8, XP.
Wise Care 365. This is another popular and functional package for optimizing your computer work. It includes programs for cleaning the disk, registry and other computer components. Wise Care 365 can detect significantly more errors than other similar applications. Users are attracted by the simple and pleasant interface, which allows them to significantly speed up their PC with the click of a button. It is impossible to note the high marks of professionals on various services, such as PCWorld, PCAdvisor, etc.
System Mechanic. This kit is also very good for overclocking a PC. It includes various optimizers (more than 50). You can perform detailed error diagnostics, improve stability and speed operating system. System Mechanic is also able to find malicious software and remove all files that can slow down the device. Can be customized automatic cleaning on schedule. The application interface is completely English. You will have to pay for the licensed version. Still, despite large number variety of functions, System Mechanic is better suited for professionals than for casual users.
AusLogics BoostSpeed. The optimizers described earlier were relatively cheaper this application. However, it has its advantages. Its cost is affected by the developers’ constant investments in advertising to promote their product. Although AusLogics BoostSpeed does not have some features like other boosters, it is absolutely safe and does not damage system files. By purchasing a license, you can use it on up to five computers at once. Basic set The tools are completely free to use. Russian language is supported. Most often, users leave positive feedback about this software.
CCleaner. Most likely all PC users are familiar with this utility. It can speed up your device, remove junk files and temporary unnecessary files. CCleaner will noticeably improve performance, but it is missing some useful options. For example, it cannot detect errors and analyze the state of the computer. However, a significant advantage is the free version of the program and the Russified version.
Glary Utilities. Glary Utilities is a software package united by a single interface. Huge advantages are that it is free and multifunctional. Glary Utilities can perform a huge number of different tasks. It can clean the system, speed it up, adjust privacy, remove malicious files and check the drivers. The automatic mode of the program is rather weak and ineffective. It is possible to create backup copies. Russian version available.
Vit Registry Fix. This program is used for comprehensive registry maintenance. It will allow you to clean unnecessary files, create backup copies (which is very useful function), check the system for errors, and quickly and conveniently uninstall unnecessary software. Vit Registry Fix is supported on Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10. Available various languages, including Russian.
Razer Game Booster. This application is not good remedy optimization because it is designed to perform specific tasks. Razer Game Booster is designed for gamers as it allows you to increase FPS in games. And it is worth saying that the program copes with its task very well. Some users are very annoyed by the constant updates of Razer Game Booster. There is manual and automatic mode acceleration.
TuneUp Utilities. This software suite has been more popular in past years. It has a unique function - OP defragmentation. It is indispensable on weak computers where memory quickly runs out. The effects of TuneUp Utilities are very noticeable. This software also allows you to create backup copies. Three modes are available: manual, scheduler and one-click cleaning. However, now TuneUp Utilities is part of AVG products, the updates of which are not at all encouraging.

Let's summarize. In this article you read information about best programs to speed up your computer. Some of them were free, while others had to be paid for a license. However, they all have their advantages and disadvantages.

Computer Accelerator will appeal to both beginners and professional users. After the first launch, the application will not irritate you in any way and will work quietly in background.

Advanced SystemCare Free is such a powerful package that most likely nothing can replace it. Professionals will appreciate this program. Its closest analogue, Glary Utilities, does not work as stably.

Windows 7 is the most common operating system today. And this is understandable, because it works much faster compared to more earlier versions Windows. But once you install it on your computer, you may not be able to tell: it will start to slow down, think longer, and freeze. It's all about the hardware - the requirements for it are slightly higher for Windows 7.

Considering that most of the parameters that are installed by default in this operating system, ordinary user may not be useful, can be used various ways to speed up your computer or laptop running Windows 7. Let's start getting to know them.

Disabling visual effects

The first thing to do is turn off visual effects and gadgets on your desktop. They undoubtedly decorate the operating system, but at the same time, they slow down its operation. Right-click on the “Computer” shortcut and select from context menu"Properties" .

On the tab "Additionally" in section "Performance" Click on the “Options” button.

A window will open on the tab « Visual effects» . Mark the item with a marker "Special Effects". Then leave the four checkboxes as shown in the image below, click "Apply" and "OK". If you don’t like the display of fonts, folders or anything else on the desktop, you can always check the desired box back.

Removing gadgets from the desktop is quite easy. Move your mouse cursor over the desired one and from additional menu select Close. You can leave a couple of the most necessary ones, but the more of them on the desktop, the greater the volume RAM they take it away.

Disabling system sounds

The second thing we will do is turn it off system sounds . Click on the speaker icon in the tray and select Sounds from the menu.

Disabling the Aero theme

Third, disable Aero Theme. This beautiful design desktop with a choice of color and transparency for the window, changing the background on the desktop, uses not only the computer’s RAM, but also the video card. Right-click on the desktop and select "Personalization".

Select any topic from the "Basic" section. It will consume less computer resources.

Disable search

Fourth is disabling the search function. It will be very useful for those who do not use search in the operating system at all. This service monitors files on the computer so that later it is possible to quickly find them, and accordingly uses a certain amount of RAM. To disable search, right-click on the “Computer” shortcut and select “Manage” from the menu.

Now in the menu on the left, expand the section "Services and Applications" by clicking on the small black triangle and select “Services”.

A list of available services will open in the window, select “Windows Search”, and double-click on it.

In the “Startup Type” field, select “Disabled”, in the “Status” field, click “Stop”. Then “Apply” and “OK”.

Using utilities

Tenth – this point will be the last. He means usage various programs to optimize computer performance. You can use the CCleaner program, which will clean the file system and registry of all kinds of garbage. Another free program is Auslogics BoostSpeed. It also finds various junk in the system and allows you to remove it. By clicking on the links, you can download the programs and read about their installation and use.

Use the methods listed above, and this will allow you to speed up your computer or laptop with the operating system installed Windows system 7.

Webmaster. Higher education with a degree in Information Security. Author of most articles and computer literacy lessons

Today on the Internet you can find dozens of programs whose authors promise that your computer will almost “take off” after using them. In most cases, it will work the same, it’s good if you are not rewarded with a dozen advertising modules (which are embedded in the browser without your knowledge).

However, many utilities will honestly clean your disk of debris and perform disk defragmentation. And it is quite possible that if you have not performed these operations for a long time, your PC will work a little faster than before.

However, there are utilities that can actually speed up your computer somewhat by setting optimal settings Windows, configuring the PC properly for a particular application. I have tried some of the programs. I want to tell you about them. The programs were divided into three corresponding groups.

Speeding up your computer for games

By the way, before recommending utilities to improve gaming performance, I would like to make a small remark. First, you need to update the drivers for your video card. Second, configure them accordingly. This will make the effect many times greater!

Game Buster

In my humble opinion, this utility is one of the best of its kind! The authors got excited about one click in the description of the program (by the time you install and register, it will take 2-3 minutes and a dozen clicks) - but it works really quickly.

Possibilities:

Brings Windows OS settings (the utility supports versions XP, Vista, 7, 8) to optimal for running most games. Thanks to this, they begin to work somewhat faster than before.
Defragments folders with installed games. On the one hand, this is a useless option for this program (after all, Windows even has built-in defragmentation tools), but honestly, how many of us defragment regularly? And the utility will not forget, if, of course, you install it...
Diagnoses the system for various vulnerabilities and does not optimal parameters. It’s quite a necessary thing; you can learn a lot of interesting things about your system...
Game Buster allows you to save videos and screenshots. Convenient, of course, but it’s better to use it for these purposes Fraps program(it has its own super fast codec).

Conclusion: Game Buster is a necessary thing and if the speed of your games leaves much to be desired, definitely try it! In any case, I personally would start optimizing the PC with it!

Game Gain

Conditionally free program for the task hidden settings operating system. To do this, this utility needs to know a few things about your PC:

its processor (for example, I have AMD in the screenshot);
Windows OS (In the example above, version 8, but keep in mind that the utility also supports others).

If the program has correctly identified your OS and processor, then press just one button - “Optimize”. In half a minute, the result is ready!

Conclusions: after running the utility, it cannot be said that the computer began to work much faster, but in combination with other utilities it gives results. It would be wrong not to mention it in this article. By the way, this utility has a paid version, which has a super Fast mode (we could not test it).

Game Accelerator

Game Accelerator is a pretty good program for accelerating games. However, in my opinion it has not been updated for a long time. For a more stable and smooth process, the program optimizes the Windows OS and hardware. The utility does not require specific knowledge from the user, etc. - just run it, save the settings and minimize it to tray.

Advantages and features:

Several operating modes: hyper-acceleration, cooling, setting up the game in the background;
defragmentation of hard drives;
"fine" tuning of DirectX;
optimization of resolution and frame rate in the game;
laptop energy saving mode.

Conclusion: the program has not been updated for a relatively long time, but at one time, around 10 years ago, it helped make your home PC faster. In its use it is very similar to the previous utility. By the way, it is recommended to use it in conjunction with other utilities for optimizing and cleaning Windows from junk files.

Game Fire

"Fire game" translated into great and mighty.

Actually very, very interesting program, which will help make your computer faster. Includes options that are simply not available in other analogues (by the way, there are two versions of the utility: paid and free)!

Advantages:

switching your PC to turbo mode for games in one click (super!);
optimizing Windows and its settings for optimal performance;
defragmentation of game folders for faster access to files;
automatic prioritization of applications for optimal game performance, etc.

Conclusion: in general, an excellent “combine” for those who like to play. I definitely recommend testing and familiarizing yourself with it. I really liked the utility!

Programs for cleaning your hard drive from junk

I think it’s no secret that over time a large number of temporary files accumulate on the hard drive (they are also called “junk”). The fact is that when the operating system is running (and even various applications) create files that they need at a certain point in time, then they delete them, but not always. Time goes by - and there are no such people deleted files becomes more and more, the system begins to “slow down”, trying to rake through a bunch of unnecessary information.

Therefore, sometimes the system needs to be cleaned of such files. This will not only save space on your hard drive, but also speed up your computer, sometimes significantly!

And so, let's look at the top three (in my subjective opinion)...

Glary Utilities

This is simply a super-combine for cleaning and optimizing your computer! Glary Utilities allows you not only to clear your disk of temporary files, but also to clean and optimize system registry, optimize memory, do backup copy data, clear website browsing history, defragment HDD, get system information, etc.

What’s most pleasing: the program is free, frequently updated, contains everything you need, plus it’s in Russian.

Conclusion: an excellent complex; if you regularly use it together with some utility for speeding up games (from the first point), you can achieve very good results.

Wise Disk Cleaner

This program, in my opinion, is one of the fastest cleaning programs. hard drive from various and Not necessary files: cache, browsing history, temporary files, etc. Moreover, it does nothing without your knowledge - first the process of scanning the system occurs, then you are informed by deleting what, how much space you can get, and then the unnecessary is removed from the hard drive. Very convenient!

Advantages:

free + with Russian language support;
there is nothing superfluous, laconic design;
fast and meticulous work (after this it is unlikely that another utility will be able to find anything on the HDD that can be deleted);
Supports all versions of Windows: Vista, 7, 8, 8.1.

CCleaner

Probably one of the most popular PC cleaning utilities, not only in Russia, but also abroad. The main advantage of the program is its compactness and high degree of Windows cleaning. Its functionality is not as rich as Glary Utilites, but in terms of removing “garbage” it can easily compete with it (and perhaps even win).

Main advantages:

free with Russian language support;
fast work speed;
support for popular Windows versions(XP, 7,8) 32 and 64 bit systems.

I think even these three utilities will be more than enough for most. By choosing any of them and regularly optimizing, you can significantly increase the speed of your PC.

Windows optimization and settings

In this subsection I would like to include programs that work in combination: i.e. check the system for optimal parameters (if they are not specified, set them), configure applications correctly, set the necessary priorities for various services, etc. In general, programs that will perform the entire complex of optimization and settings of the OS for more productive work.

By the way, out of all the variety of such programs, I liked only two. But they do improve PC performance, sometimes significantly!

Advanced SystemCare 7

What is immediately captivating about this program is its focus on the user, i.e. you don’t have to deal with long settings, read a mountain of instructions, etc. Installed, launched, clicked analyze, then agreed with the changes that the program proposed to make - and voila, the garbage is removed, with registry errors corrected, etc. it becomes an order of magnitude faster!

Accumulation of residues remote 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 contains 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 (built-in tool Windows optimization), you can permanently lose any important data, since the program destroys them irrevocably.

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.

CCleaner functionality

All application functions are divided into 4 groups, and groups into subgroups. The first group is “Cleaning”, includes sections:

Windows (Edge and Internet Explorer, conductor, system components, etc.).
Applications (third-party browsers, multimedia, Internet applications, system applications etc.).

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:

Managing startup programs.
Browser add-on management.
Analysis of disk space distribution.
Search for duplicate files.
System Restore.
Erasing disks.

The fourth group is “Settings”. It includes:

Basic settings of CCleaner.
Browser cookies (setting exceptions).
Inclusions (objects that are always subject to removal).
Exception (objects that the program should not process).
Monitoring applications (setting up auto-cleaning).
Trusted users.
Additional options(for experienced ones).

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

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 free versions 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 functionality

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:

Safety.
Unnecessary files (temporary, cache, logs, etc.).
Invalid registry entries.
System optimization (presence of factors affecting performance).
Computer history (opening documents and visiting web resources through Internet Explorer).

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:

Deleting files that cannot be deleted using Windows.
PC shutdown timer.
Recovering deleted files.
Memory optimization.
Uninstalling programs.

The second tab, “Cleaning”, contains several subsections:

Cleaning the registry.
Quick disk cleanup.
Deep cleaning.
Cleaning the system (unnecessary Windows components).

The third tab – “Optimization” – contains:

Subsection "Optimization" (here you can change the registry settings to stabilize and speed up Windows operation, increasing network speed, shortening the time it takes to turn the computer on and off).
Disk defragmentation.
Registry compression and defragmentation.
Startup management.

The “Privacy” tab contains the following subsections:

Wiping the disc.
Overwriting files.
Password generator.

On 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.

Windows Cleaner

The Windows Cleaner utility includes tools for freeing the system from unnecessary files, registry entries and unused programs that can be launched manually and on a schedule. Among 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 the 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.

Windows Cleaner functionality

The Cleaning section of Windows Cleaner contains two tabs: Files and Registry. The first one is a list of unnecessary objects file system, on the second - registry entries. The program supports 4 cleaning modes:

Fast.
Optimal.
Deep.
Custom.

After Windows scan Cleaner displays a list of objects to be deleted. 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. On the official website there is background information for working with the program in Russian, as well as a form feedback with the developer.
