Easy Windows Vista Daily Cleaning Tips

Perhaps today you have a little extra time and about to call it a day. The following tips are five things that can be completed in just 15 minutes, in order to make your PC cleaner for tomorrow’s works.

  1. Take the trash out, It’s just like your home after a party, either you take the garbage out or your home is a huge toy box for your dog. Your PC is perhaps already littered with trash from today’s work and you don’t realize it yet. To empty your trash, just give a right click on your Recycle Bin icon and select Empty Recycle Bin option.
  2. Delete unneeded emails, Don’t close your email program yet. Check these three locations: Junk Email, Deleted Items and Sent Items. (These terms are used in Outlook, the names can be different in other email softwares.). Delete any spam emails and other unneeded emails.
  3. Delete unnecessary software, just go to Start>Control Panel>Programs and delete useless freewares and sharewares that you just downloaded and installed today. Also use CCleaner to eradicate any traces of uninstalled program from the registry.
  4. Delete the internet cache, the internet cache is a temporary storage of all files accessed recently from the internet. They are useful to speed up internet browsing, but if you have a fast internet connection, cache is just a waste of hard drive storage that may eat up to gigabytes of hard drive capacity if it is not cleaned for months. In Internet Explore just go to Tools>Internet Options>General tab and click Delete Files.
  5. Delete cookies, cookies are information that is stored after visiting a website. The most common informations stored are your username and password, but can also be your location and preferences. Cookies can become a breach in security if someone else is using your computer tonight. However, if you don’t mind to re-type username and password each morning, just erase cookies before you go home. In Internet Explore just go to Tools>Internet Options>General tab and click Delete Cookies.
