Lol, it’s amazing how much we take for granted. Being the technical type (I’ve always enjoyed using computers ever since I was a teenager), I’m quite familiar with the ins and outs of computer hardware and software. I know how to repair my computer, and I certainly know how to keep it snappier… and when it gets to that, I have no problem whatsoever backing up my data and formatting my hard drive in a jiffy. In fact, I’m so used to doing that kind of thing, that sometimes I don’t remember that doing such a thing can be a terrible and elusive process, to novice users. Fortunately, there are always alternatives novice users can use when their computer is running slow.
Well, to make a long story short… I was just talking with a friend of mine on skype, and we was truly going berserk over how sluggish his computer was, despite of the fact it was only two years old. He was worried he might have to buy a new computer already, but then I just told him that his computer will go back to normal if he reinstalled the operating system, which was merely cluttered up after two years. Needless to day, he had no idea how to do such a thing, and he just kept repeating “my computer is running slow” over and over, like some sort of madman!
I was literally laughing out loud watching this little drama, until I realized how elusive the whole concept of formatting a hard drive might seem to a novice user. Fortunately, another simple answer occurred to me: a registry cleaner! That might just do the trick. So I told him to download the trial version of Registry Easy, and less than half an hour later he was video-calling on Skype. He almost tears in eyes and he just kept saying “thankyou, thankyou… you really saved me from growing a premature ulcer”. Well, what do you know? I feel good about having helped him, so I figured I might as well write this post to inspire people having similar problems. If your computer is running slow, just try this software!
