While Microsoft leaves no stone unturned in making your operating system faster with each update, you may want to be faster for your own reasons. Whether it's for gaming or for recording and uploading videos, you may need an additional performance boost and luckily there are a few methods you can achieve that by. While revolutionary performance cannot be expected, performance increases considerably.
You can easily make some changes, such as turning off the visual effects which slow down your PC considerably. It can be taskbar animations, mouse shadows, etc. So, regardless of the hardware used by the system, these small changes can speed up the system to some extent. Let's see how to make the changes.
Solution: Using advanced system settings via the control panel
Step 1: Go to Home at the desk and type Control Panel in the search field. Click on the result.
Step 2: A Control Panel window, set the file Seen from field to small icons. Now click System.
Step 3: Then click Advanced system settings.
4 phase: A System properties dialog box below the file Advanced tab, go to Performance section and click settings.
Step 5: So in Performance options dialog box below the file Visual effects, click the radio button next to Adjust for better performance.
Step 6: Now go to Advanced language and under the Virtual memory section, click Modify.
Step 7: A Virtual memory window, uncheck the box next to Automatically manage paging file size for all controllers and click the radio button next to Custom size.
Now, if your machine runs on 4GB of memory, the calculations will be as follows:
1GB = 1024 MB So, for 4GB RAM, it should be = 1024 x 4 = 4.096 MB Now, the Initial size of the pagefile should be 1.5 times of the total RAM. So, for 4GB RAM, the Initial size (MB) = 1.5 x 4,096 = 6,144 MB; The Maximum size should be 2 times of the Initial size of the RAM. So, for 4GB RAM, the Maximum size (MB) = 2 x 6,144 = 12, 288 MB.
*Note - Calculate the Initial size e Maximum size for the system RAM-based paging file.
Now, here we configure the file Initial size (MB) similar field 6.144 MB, and the Maximum size (MB) similar field 12.288 MB.
Back into Performance options window, click To apply and so ok to save changes and exit. Now reboot the machine for the changes to take effect.
You will now notice a significant increase in the performance of your system.
