It seems to be inevitable that a computer running a Windows based operating system will slow down over time.
There may be numerous reasons why your computer behaves badly and is no longer the speed demon it once was. Simple maintenance, practiced regularly, which is easy even for a non-expert, can keep your Windows based PC running smoothly at peak performance for years.
The most common problems that have impact on a computer's speed and behavior are listed here, with the appropriate free software solution. This is not however, an exhaustive list.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
Spiders: "We're going to cut straight to the chase so you're not left wondering: After a long period without clear answers, we have received confirmation that Spiders is being liquidated.
What does it mean? This means the company as a whole no longer exists. We'll cease our functions immediately. The planned DLC will release via Nacon, and then-- well, that's it.
We're sorry that it's come to this and would like to thank each and every one of you for your support over the years.
If you have any questions or run into issues with your games, please contact Nacon directly as we'll no longer be able to reply."
Oh man I feel bad for the guy on the comment section that is asking something about his laptop. This guy "billmullins", it is obvious that he doesn't know what's he's talking about if he's recommending these programs... All of them suck.
CCleaner is the only one worth checking; <---- I been using it for years, the others? meh
Lol, "there may be numerous reason why"!!
Yeah, a PC user that does not know what they are doing!
"advanced system care"
does everything and more.
and it's free!
there are a lot of background prossesses that are not neccesasary and these programs come in handy, so by your theory every time our PC is slow we should just re-install the OS?
I just tested all the free applications on offer and I am very impressed.
