1. Turn off Background Apps
Apps running in the background often tend to slow down your PC because they keep running in the background even if they’re not in use at some point of time. This results in more RAM consumption and more CPU usage, creating heating issues and ultimately deteriorating your system’s performance.

If your system has low amount of RAM, then multitasking on your Windows 10 might not be as smooth as you’d like. The best option here is to upgrade your physical memory (RAM), but if that’s not possible, increasing the system’s virtual memory is a must. This will result in a more responsive Windows 10 and a faster overall experience for you.

The result is a sluggish Windows 10 PC, Hence, cleaning up the unnecessary software and games speeds up the Windows 10 performance significantly.
