Ultimate Computer Maintenance Tips

Image
Here are the top 10 computer maintenance tasks everyone should perform: Clean Your Registry Programs store important information in the Windows Registry—information like their license key or how many days your free trial has left. But when you remove programs from your computer, this information often gets left behind. That leaves you with a registry full of useless information.

It can also help prevent old registry entries from interfering with newer registry entries and the programs that use them. A quick search on Google for “Registry Cleaner” turns up several registry cleaner programs for every budget. Run one of these programs once a month or once a quarter as part of your regular computer maintenance. Mitz has been testing  PC Speed Doctor  for over a year and hasn’t had a...

Computer: why Taskbar disappears sometimes

Sometime, Windows gets into a terrible state and the Taskbar and its Start menu disappear. This is because the software that manages these, called the Windows Explorer shell, has crashed.

To stop the Explorer shell, go to the 'Processes' page and look for 'explorer.exe'. You can sort the processes into alphabetical order by clicking on the Image Name heading. If you find an entry for 'explorer.exe', highlight it and click the End Process button and click Yes on the warning dialog. If you do...
