🔹Step 1: Stop Diagnostic Policy Service

Click Apply and OK.

🔹Step 4: Clear Temporary Files

How:
Open Start > Run, then Type %temp% and delete all files in this folder.
Repeat this by typing temp in Run and clearing those files as well.
This procedure clears temporary files and frees up disk space.

Start > run >%temp %> delete all file.

🔹Step 5: Additional Cleanup and Boost Methods

Here are a few more tweaks you can perform:

✅ Start > Run > tree > enter:
This command displays directory structures, freeing memory afterwards.

✅ Start > chkdsk > enter:
Runs a disk check to find and repair disk issues.

✅ Start > prefetch:
Open the folder and delete all files in it.
This clears out files that Windows pre-loads for faster application launch — sometimes this cache grows large and messy.

✅ Start > Run > msconfig:
Click Services, check Hide all Microsoft services, then disable unwanted ones.
This reduces background services consuming resources.

✅ Start > Run > regedit:

• To shorten Mouse Hover Time:
  Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Control Panel > Mouse > MouseHoverTime, and set its value to 10.
• To shorten Menu Display:
  Go to ** HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Control Panel > Desktop > MenuShowDelay**, and set it to 10.

✅ Disk Cleanup:
Open My Computer, right-click your drive, select Property, then Disk Cleanup.
Choose files to delete and clear.

✅ Defragment:
Click Start > Defragment, select drive, and optimize.
This reorganises files and makes disk operations faster.
