Why my computer becomes so slow all of a sudden?

I'm not sure what the other guy is talking about, but you did a great job helping me.  I just returned from a much needed vacation and now I have a new hard drive, Dell gave me for free under warranty.

Thank you very much for your help!

Well first stop using any registry cleaner, these tools are not necessary and in the worst cases can make the system unusable. Then throw.

Have you scanned for malware? http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free (free Version)

You ran chkdsk? (see help & support)

I'm not agree with the above statement, that registry cleaners are not necessary. Most of the software built for windows at some point create registry entries - unless they do not need installation and are just .exe to the exodus or portable versions maybe... but...
The point is, the more you install as much as is written for your victory. Registry. Once u uninstall a program/game for a reason, they get left behind again by official uninstalers. If after some time your registry database is saturated with useless stuff and if you're not careful also, it breaks and it slows down your windows.  I discovered that the best way to prevent these contingencies is that simply do not experiment you a lot with facilities of different things unless it is necessary to absolutelly. Perform a scan to reg after uninstalation of sw. ; remove unnecessary entries, defragment. Reboot, defragment your hard drive. later and you're done until the next uninstall.
I had very few issues with my pc without any antivirus and anti spyware software tips for 5-7 years - and those that I had were a result of a fake a click. So if you're just a little more intelligent and knowledgeable about what you do online, you won't really miss these kinds of bloatware (s)

  • Lightroom works very slow all of a sudden

    I searched and read all the forums on the optimization of the performance of Lightroom (How to improve and accelerate the performance of Photoshop Lightroom) and have watched many videos with tips on improving the performance on YouTube and have not yet found a solution.

    Question: After a few months of using Lightroom, it suddenly became unusably slow. It was not a demonstration of deliberate for its slow over time. Instead, one day it was usable, and the next day he was not. Even in the library module it lags to switch between images. When I press F for full screen, where it was instantaneous and now takes about 10 seconds and is then stuck in fullscreen. This is true for the large images and old photos of iPhone even in low resolution. Can import is no longer the same wait more than a minute between clicks.

    On my computer

    • 2015 Macbook Pro (a few months)
    • OS X El Capitan 10.11.2 running
    • Intel Core i5 at 2.7 GHz
    • Memory - 8 GB 1867 MHz DDR3
    • Graphics - Intel Graphics Iris 6100 1536 MB
    • Hard total is 120 GB
    • Drive hard use 96 GB of the - 47 in photos and approximately 22 GB in "others" which I suppose is a majority of the Lightroom data
    • I almost exclusively use this machine for browsing the web and photography. Nothing else. very few other programs and file type

    On my Lightroom

    • Lightroom CC
    • 2015.2.1 release
    • 5 864 total photos on the computer and my main Lightroom Catalog
    • Only about 60 have changed considerably in the develop module
    • Majority taken on a JPEG of A6000 Sony 24MP camera

    What I tried to solve the problems, does not

    1. Read a lot on the size of the catalog. Mine is still quite small, but I've tried closing the catalog and begin a new one with about 200 shots straight out of the camera. This has not solved the problem.
    2. Optimized catalog
    3. Preferences changed to automatically reject 1:1 previews after a day.
    4. Top left says nothing about the rendering preview. This along with the fact that the issue has been sudden leads me to believe that "Preview size" are not the issue, but I could be wrong.
    5. I tried to move all my photos on an external hard drive fast - catalog file was still on my computer, but I had a lot more space on the machine. This has not solved the problem
    6. I turned off of face detection, because he had tried to distinguish faces
    7. Increased raw cache size of camera

    Lightroom isi the only app I had problems with. Everything else is zippy and smooth. Help, please!

    Hi robertr,.

    • Lightroom CC
    • 2015.2.1 release

    The first suggestion would be to upgrade your Lightroom to the latest version 2015.3. Select Help<>.

  • Mac Mini became very slow all of a sudden

    This morning, my Mac Mini became very, very slow. It's a 2009 with 4 GB of RAM and hdd 120Gb standard.

    I run with a keyboard and bluetooth mouse and due to its slowness, I wanted to run the hardware test to see what was wrong. (As is always the original HARD disk, I am wary of its remaining life expectancy). However, everything I try, I can't start anything on the mini as a normal reboot. If I have D, hold down option-D, hold SHIFT to safe mode, nothing seems to influence his start-up.

    Any thoughts? And also, suggestions of things to check?
