RE: Make Windows 10 Home Faster And Safer - 2 of 8 parts.

in #howto7 years ago

Seriously so many people just don’t do the basic maintenance. I do frequently forget to defrag, I tried scheduling it once but the schedule never kicked in

Sort:  

The IT industry seems to assume two things: 1) your PC is on 24/7 and 2) you never turn your internet connection off. It seems that any scheduling on Win10 requires the above. I turn everything off when I am not using them, even the battery operated mouse.
Do a cleanup before you do a defrag (now known as optimise) as it helps the disk operation. You don't have to care if you have a SSD.

Aye aye captain, I did notice the change from cleanup to optimise. I think cleanup makes more sense, laymen’s terms.

I agree with you. Expect more changes to maintenance in the October update. I'm glad I paid for unlimited internet.
