Few basic steps which are normally ignored by people like me , can easily boost the performance in windows like
1. Uninstall unwanted software which are not used by you any more. For this press Windows>control panel>uninstall a program ..... remove the unwanted software
2. Ensure that you have a good anti-virus software loaded on your computer like Avast,Kaspersky AntiVirus. This will ensure that no malware or spyware gets planted in your system which slows down the system.
3.Remove unwanted files, like temp files, downloaded program files, recycle bin, etc.
