The free computer program described today (from a famous manufacturer) will help (perhaps) those users who are always running out of memory, who have little of it.
It will be about - she will allow you on time clear computer RAM by defragmentation.
Personally, I think that such programs are a temporary and forced solution to the problem of shortages. random access memory. This issue can only be fully resolved by physically increasing its volume (purchasing an additional stick of RAM).
But not all users can afford to easily fork out for such a purchase - RAM for a computer today costs a lot of money 🙁.
Very simple. After starting the computer, it works quickly for a while, and then begins to become “dull.” Programs begin to run slower and the browser can barely navigate website pages - the computer has little RAM.
Wise Memory Optimizer allows you to clear your computer's RAM by disabling unnecessary users, closing unnecessary background processes and defragmenting it.
Available in Wise Memory Optimizer manual mode and automatic - the program at the right time (when the specified amount is reached used memory) does the cleaning itself.
By the way, the manufacturers of this program are the same ones that created excellent cleaners - .
Let's clear the RAM already (:connie_13. It's very simple - run the downloaded (from the official link at the end of the article) and installed Wise Memory Optimizer...
Go to settings and set the language to Russian...
Every personal computer user who has reinstalled Windows at least once knows that immediately after installation the system works much faster than after several months of use. This situation is primarily due to the fact that the computer’s RAM, in simple terms, becomes clogged. Other factors also come into play, for example, a registry that becomes clogged with “unnecessary” information. However, their role is insignificant.
How to unload RAM?
1. Certain programs, during their operation, almost completely load the computer’s RAM, and after they are closed, the memory is not unloaded. If such a situation arises, simply restart your computer. In this case, the memory will be completely cleared, and the computer will start working much faster.
Important! As a rule, this situation indicates poor optimization of the software that loads RAM. Its use is best avoided.
2. If the RAM is constantly clogged, then you should look at which processes are preventing programs from functioning normally. To do this we launch Task Manager(keyboard shortcut Ctrl+alt+del) and look at the tab “ Processes" Here we will see which programs take up the most RAM. In order to unload the RAM, we find the “gluttonous” process and click on the button “ End the process ».
3. If the RAM is loaded by a program that is in the startup list, that is, it starts immediately after Windows starts, then it must be removed from there. Launch the startup editing utility ( “Start” - “Run” and dial msconfig). In the window that appears, select the “” tab and remove unnecessary programs by unchecking the boxes.
Important! When unloading RAM, be careful not to terminate processes necessary for normal operation of the system, and also not to close programs with unsaved settings.
Many computer users experience a decrease in computer speed after a certain period of time after turning it on. The reason for this is fragments of programs that clog RAM - random access memory. By cleaning everything unnecessary, you will increase the performance of your PC or laptop, sometimes significantly. Below we will give several ways to clear the RAM of a Windows 7 computer.
Remember: the user does not have access to all of the computer's RAM. Part of it is used by operating system services and sometimes by the video card. Only the remaining volume is intended for processing data from software launched by the user, and it is worth cleaning it.
Most effective way clean RAM - disable all programs and leave only the one you are working with. This solution is especially effective when the computer has a small amount of RAM.
Statistics on RAM usage can be viewed in the Task Manager in the “Performance” tab. It is launched by simultaneously pressing the Ctrl, Alt and Delete or Ctrl, Shift and Esc keys. By opening the specified tab, you can see the used and free RAM. As a rule, there is always little free memory. The “Applications” tab displays running programs that need to be closed to clear the RAM, so it can be cleaned.
“Extra” processes include program agents that do not perform any useful functions other than monitoring the Internet resources of their developers for the latest updates. You can disable them using the utility that is included in the basic set Windows programs. It is launched by clicking the “Start” button and entering the name msconfig in the search bar at the bottom of the window that appears. By clicking on the result found, in the “Startup” tab, uncheck all unnecessary checkboxes and restart the computer.
Several utilities from this list will help increase the performance of your computer:
All specified programs are free and do not take up much memory space. Their use is guaranteed.
The stability and productivity of a personal computer depends on its configuration. RAM plays a significant role in this. It, no less, determines the performance of the computer, acting as a kind of intermediary between the central processor and the hard drive or other storage medium. Let's figure out how to properly clean the operating room or physical memory on a Windows PC.
Computer memory is a system that includes various special storage devices that interact both with each other and with the central processor.
Physical random access memory (RAM) is a volatile part of the system used to temporarily store program code read from the medium and any other input or output data, which is then processed by the processor. Its functions are implemented using random access memory (RAM) in the form of a technical strip with microcircuits inserted into special paired sockets on the motherboard. Information accumulated in RAM modules is lost when the computer is turned off. Therefore, this type of memory is called RAM. Its volume today is calculated in gigabytes. Usually these are levels from 2 GB and above. It is impossible to operate a computer running Windows 7 without installed RAM modules included in the common logical chain.
Installing RAM sticks into the slots intended for it
If there is a shortage of RAM, virtual memory is used, which allows you to automatically redistribute the load, moving parts of running applications to an area on the hard drive allocated for these purposes. Physical read-only memory (ROM) is used for long-term storage of information that remains even when the computer's power is turned off. The entire array of information is located on a hard drive with Windows 7 installed. Data can also be stored on any other media (flash drives, DVDs).
There is also video memory built directly into the video card. With its help, an image is formed on the monitor screen.
Increased load on RAM can cause your computer to slow down and, in some cases, even freeze. When instability occurs, you need to understand which existing processes are consuming resources. Use the standard combination Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open the Task Manager. In the window opened through the “Processes” menu item, you can see how and in what volume the RAM is consumed. And its total consumption as a percentage is reflected on the right at the very bottom of the open window.
RAM consumption by work processes in Windows 7
The “Performance” tab shows the allocated RAM (in appropriate units) for running threads and processes, the amount of available, cached, free memory, a chronological graph of its use, and also presents kernel data.
The “Performance” tab displays detailed information about the distribution of RAM
Reducing the amount of RAM consumed in all cases of increased load that leads to slowdown of Windows 7 is an effective way to troubleshoot problems that arise. To do this, you should perform a series of actions to clean RAM and optimize its operation.
All open applications can be identified by the icons located at the very bottom of the “Desktop”. They are also shown in the “Task Manager” on the “Applications” tab. To close unused this moment software process, you need to remove the task by first marking the application with the mouse. This method is especially relevant when some programs freeze, for example, Word or Excel. But closing applications like this is an emergency and should be used only in extreme cases.
Disabling frozen or unused applications to free up RAM
Closing many programs does not always lead to their complete stop. Many background processes are still running. This especially applies to torrents and similar software. Often, such applications deliberately leave running processes in the RAM even after the program is closed. You can stop them on the “Processes” tab in the “Task Manager”. And on the “Services” tab, it is possible to stop services that are launched by default, which are not used by the system, but consume resources. This will also deactivate the associated background processes.
Please note that after restarting the system, all changes made will be lost. To prevent this from happening, you should disable unused services on the corresponding tab in the “Administration” section, opened through the control panel. Select the startup type “Disabled” via the context menu.
Selecting the service startup mode

It is also possible to stop and then disable the service through the command line. To open it, enter the Win+R keyboard combination and execute the cmd command. Next, on the command line, write and execute net stop or sc stop and then sc configstart=disabled.
Stopping Windows 7 services via command line
The Windows 7 configuration includes a useful feature that allows programs to be loaded automatically when the system starts. Many applications are initially configured to use startup. But this is not always necessary, because each program launched in this way takes up part of the RAM resources. Enter the Win+R combination from the keyboard and run the msconfig command. In the window that opens, on the “Startup” tab, uncheck those applications that do not need to start automatically and save the settings.
Among users computer technology There is an opinion that you can never have too much RAM... And you can’t argue with this, dear reader, especially when it comes to modern machines whose hardware configuration corresponds to solid specifications, and the Windows system installed on board the PC is a 64-bit version. However, the “painful” problem of many - “the computer’s physical memory is loaded, what should I do” - still continues its inglorious existence, perplexing the average user and sometimes forcing an experienced computer guru to rack his brains over solving the “lack of RAM” problem. However, we will not delve into the extreme complexity of “operational misunderstandings” and will resort to simple, but nevertheless effective methods for diagnosing and optimizing the computer swap system. Well, the article promises to be memorable. RAM secrets are waiting to be revealed!
What to do and how to deal with it? Probably, these are the questions that come to the user’s mind when he becomes an involuntary witness to the monstrous slowness of the Windows operating system.
In general, any of the above scenarios (not to mention their complex manifestations) can quickly drive any user crazy. But not everyone who is “expecting” understands that everything described above may be the result of our own omissions. And it’s unlikely that the average user even knows how to make sure that the computer’s physical memory is loaded?
Of course, first of all, you need to diagnose the system. Moreover, everything necessary for this is provided in advance by Microsoft developers. Well, it's time to move on to the practical part of our story.
When you observe that your computer's physical memory is loaded at 80% or above this value, pay attention to startup. Most likely, when Windows starts, the mentioned service activates many background applications and various software. Often, it is for this reason that the RAM becomes overloaded, literally “torn” between requests from multiple programs to allocate the amount of memory they need to operate. However, such an unpleasant situation can be corrected quite easily.
You will be surprised how quickly your OS will boot after a system restart. Nothing prevents you from making sure in practice that the problematic situation when the computer’s physical memory is loaded on Windows 7 will be exhausted after you remove all unnecessary things from startup.
Let's start with the main thing - you need to disable unused software. As a rule, in order to see which programs are running in the background, you need to look into a special area of the OS - the system tray - and directly from there (by pointing the marker at the object and right-clicking) deactivate the selected software. It may well turn out that immediately after you implement the proposed recommendation, the question “The physical memory of the computer is loaded, how to clear it” will be completely resolved. After all, some applications running are incredibly “gluttonous” in terms of using system RAM resources.
So, in order to see which programs or utilities are “secretly” consuming the kilo- and megabytes of RAM you need so much, do the following:
However, you should not rush to deactivate “aggressive items”, since disabling some critical Windows services can have a detrimental effect on general condition stability of your OS.
When the physical memory of the computer is 90 percent loaded (from the earlier section of the article you learned that this value is a deviation from the norm), some users rush to clear the RAM area using various utilities. However, not many of them realize that this type of RAM optimization is a waste of time, since they do not contribute anything concrete to solving the problem. The “promising functionality” of such optimizers only creates the illusion that memory is freed up, while introducing some difficulties into the operation of the OS... Rest assured: the manual method is much more effective and more expedient to implement than imaginary “help” from third-party developers. By the way, we advise you to simply forget about this (second) method of RAM optimization...
Often the user asks the question: “The physical memory of the computer is loaded: is it a virus or not?” This problem is especially acute when all the above actions have been implemented in practice. What's the matter and why does RAM continue to lose its working potential? Let's figure it out.
It is worth noting that the traditional antivirus installed on your PC is not always able to fully protect your system from penetration and the subsequent negative impact of one or another “digital infection”. Therefore, it makes sense to check your OS using the above utilities.
If you are working in Word and at the same time listening to music using an Internet browser, and you see that the physical memory of the computer is 77% loaded, there is no reason to worry. But if things are different, it makes sense to look at the problem from a technical point of view and ask some questions: how many RAM modules are installed on your PC and what are their nominal “capabilities”? It is worth noting an important fact: depending on the version of the Windows system used, the requirements for the amount of RAM can vary from 256 MB to 2 GB (only for the “needs” of the operating system itself). Well, if you still decide to use a resource-intensive program on a computer with limited RAM, then it’s time to think about expanding
So, with some confidence we can say that the once difficult situation for you “the physical memory of the computer is loaded, what to do” has now been resolved. Nevertheless, one important “operative” point is still worth mentioning.
And one last thing: don’t miss the opportunity to upgrade your PC - adding an additional RAM module will significantly expand the functionality and “combat capability” of your computer equipment. Don't let your computer fall into unconsciousness!
RAM, or as it is also called, physical memory plays an important role in the speed of a computer and laptop. It is its volume that determines the number and “complexity” of simultaneously running and running programs. The more physical memory, the more programs and you can run games on it.
Today, the minimum comfortable amount of RAM is considered to be 4GB. If your computer has less of it, then it is recommended to increase this amount by adding RAM to speed up work.
But sometimes you can observe a situation where, when viewing the amount of consumed physical memory in the task manager, its volume is 90% or more. At the same time, not a single serious program or game is running, and the computer clearly slows down and periodically appears about the lack of virtual memory.
When faced with a similar situation, the first thing you need to do is determine the culprit and find out which program or process consumes the most memory.
To do this, open the task manager by right-clicking on the taskbar and selecting “Task Manager” from the menu that opens.
Launching Task Manager
In it, go to the processes tab and, if available, check the “Display processes of all users” checkbox.
Processes tab in Task Manager with process sorting enabled to reduce memory consumption
Now you can clearly see which program consumes the most memory.
Very often in Windows 7, almost all of the physical memory is consumed by the svchost.exe process. If it is this that is eating up all your RAM, then we recommend that you familiarize yourself with it.
In all other cases, simply highlight the process that is consuming a large amount of RAM and click the "End Process" button.
It is also worth checking the startup list and everything from it unnecessary programs, which are automatically loaded with operating system and take up space in the computer’s physical memory.
For comfortable work on a computer in operating systems Windows 7 and higher
If your computer has little RAM (for example, only 4 GB), resource-intensive programs can quickly take up all of it and begin to slow down, reducing the performance of the computer as a whole. Playing video games won’t be much of an option either, since to access the necessary data that doesn’t fit in the RAM, the game or program will have to access the slow HDD.
What to do if upgrading an old system seems impractical to you (it’s more logical to save money to build a modern one), but you still want to improve performance? We will share with you some tricks that will help increase the performance of hardware, be it desktop computer or laptop.
1. Close unused programs
All programs save the data they need in RAM while running. The more programs are running, the more space in RAM they take up. If you close applications that you are not using at the moment, this will have a positive effect on performance. For example, before playing a game, close your browser and messenger.
2. Remove unnecessary software from startup
Programs that run with Windows also won't do you any good when you're running low on RAM. In Windows 10, open Task Manager, go to the advanced display mode and click on the Startup tab. You will be surprised to find a bunch of software here that you don't need in your everyday life. For example, it is unlikely that you are going to reprogram your mouse every day. Then why do you need software that is always running to customize settings? But you shouldn’t touch system utilities so as not to harm your computer.
3. Manage background processes
Unnecessary background processes can also be disabled in the same “Task Manager” on the corresponding “Processes” tab in the “Background...” section. Monitoring services for program updates, software for taking screenshots, etc. They only eat up precious megabytes of RAM. But be careful: don't turn it off accidentally system processes, otherwise it may negatively affect the computer's operation.
4. Disable unused services
If you don't have an Xbox console, you probably don't need Xbox Game Monitoring. The same goes for other services. The antivirus reliably replaces Windows Defender, and the Steam client can be launched on demand. Here the task before us is relatively simple: to understand which services we do not need, right-click on them and select the “Stop” menu item. The main thing is, as in the previous paragraph, to be careful and not disable anything necessary out of ignorance.
5. Check for viruses
Ordinary viruses can also cause a lack of RAM. Alternatively, a hidden miner, spyware, or worm may have been placed on your computer. The above methods will not help here. Only antivirus software will help correct the situation, which requires a deep analysis of the entire PC. And even if the antivirus does not detect anything, but there is a suspicion of infection, you should not refuse additional check third-party antivirus utilities.
6. Clean RAM with specialized software
Those who are too lazy to manually optimize RAM can resort to the help of numerous utilities, such as Advanced System Care. This program is a real harvester for removing unnecessary data and minor repairs. The software is even capable of finding and neutralizing viruses, and it is very simple to operate. The interface will be intuitive even for a beginner, and regardless of the selected cleaning mode, SystemCare will effectively free the RAM from junk.
7. Clear RAM using a simple script
Or you don’t have to install any utilities at all. If you have a couple of minutes of free time, it will be easier and faster to write a small script with which you can free up the required amount of RAM at any time. To do this, create on the “Desktop” Text Document by right-clicking the mouse. Name the file “Cleaning RAM”, for example, and enter the following data into it: MsgBox “Free up space in RAM?”,0, “Cleaning RAM”
FreeMem=Space (1024000000)
MsgBox “Space Freed”,0, “CleaningRAM” Now change the file extension from “.TXT” to “.VBS” and run the resulting script. After activation, you will see a text message “Free up space in RAM?”. Click on the “OK” button and after completing the procedure, the script will notify you that “The space is free.” In our script, we set the value to 1 GB of RAM. If you need to free up more space, enter your byte value in parentheses. How much RAM is installed in your PC? 4 GB 8 GB 16 GB 32 GB 64 GB or more View results Loading...

Selecting DDR4 RAM: 12 best kits for any budget
RAM is not recognized: what could be the reasons?
Over time, the shapes and models of RAM chips have changed, but the main thing has not changed - the purpose...
Let's start with the fact that RAM today has higher characteristics, such as speed and frequency. Current computer builds mainly use DDR3, the latest RAM model that is naturally more productive than its predecessors. In new computers and laptops, about 3 gigabytes of RAM are increasingly installed (for example, for normal Windows operation XP required no more than 512 megabytes), this is due to the increasing demands of users on PCs.
The amount of RAM and user requests do not always coincide, then a noticeable lack of system resources begins, which most often manifests itself in slowdowns and problematic launching of some programs.
That’s when you should ask about the amount of RAM and what it is spent on in the system. Of course, if your computer only has 1 gigabyte of memory installed, you shouldn't expect much from performance in new versions of Windows operating systems.
There are a number of programs that often take up more RAM compared to other software. So, for example, the main “sink” of RAM will be, no matter whose development it is or what version it is. The second most occupied amount of RAM can be called video editing. Also, do not forget about computer games, which require up to 6 – 8 gigabytes of RAM per hour to operate in high-performance mode!
Note! In addition to the programs, the operating room itself Windows system, starting with version Seven, uses RAM resources as a cache for frequently used system files!
The main thing is to monitor the health of the operating system as a whole, try to exclude programs from startup and not run an excessive number of applications at the same time.
In contact with
RAM is the most important component of any computer or laptop. To a greater extent, it determines the speed of the device and, accordingly, the more RAM is installed on the computer, the better and easier it will work. You can increase the performance of your computer by increasing the physical amount of memory, but in Windows 7 the same result can be achieved in slightly different ways, for example, by cleaning it.
All operations with information are carried out CPU computer, and it does this only with the one contained in the random access memory device. A lot of different information is loaded here, including intermediate results of various calculations and current data. Literally all operations that a computer performs involve accessing RAM and its subsequent use. Thus, we can draw a simple conclusion - everything you do on the computer, one way or another, can consume RAM resources. This makes it clear why computers with little RAM perform much worse than other devices with more resources.
In addition to random access memory, there are several other types of memory, these are physical and video memory.
If you look at the system indicators that display the amount of RAM, you will probably be surprised, because it will show a slightly smaller amount than you installed. The system automatically reserves a certain amount of RAM for the operation of the central processor. As a rule, this volume is not very large, but it is mandatory for the functioning of the “brain” of a personal computer. This part is called the physical memory of the device.
Each video adapter has its own memory. Essentially, this is the same RAM, only installed on separate component computer, which performs the function of transmitting images to the monitor. Unlike traditional RAM strips, each of which the PC owner can independently replace (add, remove some, or replace them), video memory is non-removable. As a result, you can increase the amount of such memory only by replacing the old video adapter with a new one or purchasing an additional video card.
The Windows 7 operating system can show the user information about what is currently occupied by the computer's RAM. All this can be viewed independently, without additional tools, using the system’s built-in capabilities. The Task Manager will help users with this. You can open it in two ways: Press the key combination Ctrl+Alt+Del on your keyboard and select the “Task Manager” application in the menu that appears. Right-click on the “Taskbar” and select “Task Manager” there.
By default, the program automatically opens the “Performance” tab to the user. Here you can look at the load on the central processor at the current moment in time, how much it is used running programs, and also look at the chronology of physical memory usage. In some cases this may be necessary. However, only the loading graph of individual system elements is presented here, and users can find more accurate and detailed information in the “Processes” tab.
“Processes” indicates all information about running applications on the computer, including even those processes that appeared as a result of failures. In the leftmost column you can see the name of the process, in the penultimate column the amount of RAM occupied by a particular process, and in the rightmost column - detailed description. This way you can look at the table and sort all processes, for example, by the amount of resources consumed and terminate them if necessary.
RAM is often a scarce resource for many applications. The user launches some of them quite consciously, while others begin to work at the “will” of the system or because of startup. We should not forget that there are applications that deliberately harm the device and can consume a significant portion of system resources - malicious software. Be that as it may, they all consume RAM, so the user needs to clean up the RAM regularly.
The easiest way to clear RAM is to disable various programs and applications.
This way you can free up some of the physical memory. The Windows 7 operating system displays all active programs and applications in the form of special icons located at the bottom of the screen on the “Taskbar”. Thanks to the new Aero interface, which appeared in the OS Windows Vista, the user can easily view the working view of the windows. This way you can understand which windows contain important, unsaved information. All those applications that you do not need now, you can disable and increase performance, free up computer memory, and to do this, just click on the cross located at the top of the active window.
Separate mention should be made about the operation of web browsers. The fact is that each new tab that you open in the browser represents a separate process for the system. Thus, if the number of such tabs is large, and the amount of RAM, on the contrary, is small, then the performance of your computer will significantly deteriorate. If you don’t need your browser at all right now, then close it completely. If you only need some separate tabs, then leave them and remove the rest. For example, it often happens that users enter a query into a search engine and leave this tab open. It will also use system resources, so make sure that all those tabs that you don't need are disabled.
If necessary, users can use the Task Manager to disable active applications. To do this you will need:
All active tasks will be displayed here, including those that cannot be closed by simply clicking on the “cross” in the upper right corner of the window (frozen applications). Try to use this method only when some programs on your computer are frozen and do not respond to actions.
Remember that it is better not to abuse this method of disabling applications. In this case, this is an emergency shutdown of the program and, naturally, some data may not be saved. In addition, this method of disabling may cause problems when the application is launched later.
Some types of programs and applications run in the so-called background and consume RAM. As a rule, they do not have an active window. Their entire interface is either minimized to tray or is not noticeable at all. However, this does not mean that they do not consume system resources. Often they become the reason for a decrease in the speed of a personal computer and a deterioration in its performance. Therefore, it is recommended to check all processes at least occasionally. To do this you should:
All active processes will be displayed here. Be careful not to disable system processes, as this may lead to problems with the computer. If you have no idea what exactly can be disabled and what cannot, then take a look at the name of the process itself. Typically, it is identical or very similar to the application name. You will see friends unnecessary processes, then feel free to turn them off.
PC users rarely pay attention to running services. They, along with other applications and processes, consume resources, namely, they occupy the physical memory of the computer. Some of the services are system ones, which can cause problems when disabled, but there are also those that can be disabled without problems. You can view a list of all services running on your computer as follows:
As soon as you click on “Services”, a special window will open where complete information about a particular service on the computer will be displayed. You can definitely disable the following types of services: "IP Auxiliary Service", as it is simply useless on home computer and has no practical value. “Secondary login” - it is advisable to disable it for security reasons. "Changed Link Tracking Client" is a service that to the average user won't be needed at all. “SSDP detection” - needs to be enabled only if you have devices connected to the computer using the SSDP protocol. “Windows Search” - the service is needed only if you use computer search too actively. “Fax” - the service can be left active only if you use your computer as a fax machine.
Autoload occurs immediately after startup graphical shell. In this case, all programs and applications included in the startup list will be loaded according to the list into the computer’s RAM. Typically, various anti-virus applications are prescribed here to ensure the user’s safety while working on the network, email applications (messengers), browsers, as well as malware, provided that they are on the computer and have not been identified by any anti-virus software. If the user does not regularly check the Startup settings, then over time a lot of unnecessary applications, which will partially consume RAM resources.
Most effective method Cleaning startup involves changing the system configuration. To launch it you should:
All programs and applications that start automatically with your operating system will be displayed here. You can disable all unfamiliar names without any problems.
Please note that “Startup” may contain system utilities, the disabling of which can lead to failures while the computer is running. Therefore, be careful.
You can free up a small part of RAM by restarting Windows process Explorer. He is nothing more than user interface(start menu, windows, etc.). First you will have to disable it, and then re-register it in a special line and launch it. This way you will free up some RAM. To do this you will need to do the following:
After this, the entire operating system interface should disappear, but don’t worry - everything goes as it should. The next step is to restart the process:
All icons and the interface will immediately return to their place, and at the same time some of your computer’s RAM will be freed up.
You can free up a small part of the memory using the regedit command - cleaning the system registry. To do this you will need:
A special registry editor window will appear, where you have to navigate through it and find:
All of these directories contain shortcuts to software that starts automatically, without user intervention. They are located in the section on the right.
Be careful, as changing data in the registry requires certain qualifications and caution. Removing important system components may cause your computer to malfunction.
It was already said a little higher that some varieties malware can exclusively consume system resources. Other, less dangerous ones simply use RAM for their work. In any case, it is necessary to combat these misfortunes in order to return the computer to its previous state. You can detect and remove malicious software using antivirus software. Fortunately, today developers provide free versions with limited functionality, but even so they are fully capable of protecting your computer from external threats. To scan and remove viruses, all you need to do is:
The computer hard drive often has a hard time. It can store a huge amount of data, including data that is not used by any program or application. All this can lead to deterioration in computer performance over time.
