It had been several years since I took care off my machine. I was experiencing some hiccups here and there, nothing serious, some minor crashes. So I took these steps to tune-up my boy. First, ran through all applications in the Control Panel and uninstalled all the junk that I don't use.
Driver Booster
- updated all drivers
Advanced System Care (from same company as above)
- cleaned up junk files
CCleaner
- fixed registry errors
Defraggler (from same company as above)
- took care of my hard drives
Feel free to add more Free Utilities and Tips/Tricks for your Windows machine.

i upgrade my gpu every 2 years so i just reinstall windows then. all my important files are either on the cloud or I can save them on a thumbdrive.
with a nvme you can reinstall windows and have all your drivers reinstalled in like 30 minutes or less.hiya
