Disable Startup Programs And Make Your PC Faster

It can be caused by various reasons. One of the most common reasons, is that some apps or programs start up automatically when you turn your PC on, then they will keep running in the background which makes the memory of your computer full while you are using it. Whenever you install new apps or programs, by default, most of them will start automatically when your computer turns on. This is eating up your computer’s memory and slowing it down especially when you are switching from one program to another. How to avoind this? You should disable these startup apps and programs.
