Using IOBit tool box Startup Manager to reduce items that load into system RAM when your computer is turned on goes a long way to optimize your Windows computer.
Goto IObit toolbox from Major Geeks.com and install this tasty piece of
software if you have not already done so. I suggest you check out my earlier blogs about this tool as listed in the SiteLinks list below.
Open IOBit Toolbox and select "Optimize."
Click "Startup Manager."
The items listed here that are "Enabled" are what loads when you startup your computer. Your computer's list will vary from this. Before you proceed take time to consider what you
want your computer to do when it loads. Removing items from here will not delete them from your computer, you will still be able to access them from short-cuts on your desktop, Start
Menu or wherever you have installed them to.
Optimally, the fewer you have in this list the better.

Well known programs have suggestions as to whether it is needed or not as listed under "Evaluation." Some may not be evaluated. If you turn them off, they can be turned on later by
returning to this Startup Manager.
In the bottom right corner is a more in-depth explanation of the software location and what it does. Read this area as you decide what to keep or remove. Experiment and adjust
according to your needs.
Slide the "Status" button from On to Off.
This item has a more detailed "Evaluation" explanation reminding you it is safe to disable it.
Again slide the "Status" button left to Off. Continue down the list of Startup Items and when complete a reboot of your computer is a good idea. If you need, open
Startup Manager again and change your selections.
As always the tuning and tweaking of your computer is just like that of a car. The tires may be in perfect condition and top of the line but if the motor oil is breaking down your
vehicle will not behave itself. So it is with your computer, as we clean, tweak and optimize your system you will notice improvement along the way and over time you will be thrilled at
learning new techniques to master your machine. In fact, if you are thorough you will see your computer behave better than when you bought it. Stick with it and take the time to save
time. You will be so glad you did.
