Hello please follow my instructions to turn all unnecessary privacy tracking services off. remove bloatware pre installed apps and change some settings.
Step 1: Please navigate to your start menu and type "Privacy" It should look something like this - prntscr.com/gklo1s
Turn EVERYTHING OFF in General and in Location Then i want you to scroll down to "Background apps" and turn all of them
off should look something like this - prntscr.com/gklogh

Step 2: Removing all bloatware and pre installed apps! Please navigate to the link provided to IOBIT Uninstaller - www.iobit.com/en/advanceduninstaller.php Once you have downloaded it i want you to navigate to "windows apps"
should look something like this prntscr.com/gklq3o and i would recommend you remove all windows apps you dont use there was about 38 in there before! IOBIT uninstaller is also good for aggressive Programs that just wont go away!

Step 3: Type power into your start menu prntscr.com/gklsxc and go to choose a power plan.
You have two options you may go to high performance and at the right press change plan settings. then change advanced power settings prntscr.com/gkltnf Make sure you go into processor power management and change maximum process state and minimum processor state to %100 or alternatively you may download Process Lasso bitsum.com/
Process Lasso is a CPU optimizer adjusting the processes priorities, in order to keep the system responsive when processes are consuming too many CPU cycles its amazing for low spec computers an gamers! I did discuss this program more an on how to use it in my last tutorial you can find here zarpgaming.com/index.php/forum/11-help/7...e-for-low-spec-users

Step 4: Navigate to your start menu and type "defragment" and something like this should come up prntscr.com/gklx7d

Step 5: Navigate to your start menu and type task manager Go to startup and disable any unnecessary start up items to
improve start up speed and over all speed not having programs your not using in the background eating that ram of yours! prntscr.com/gklyxh and also go into services and make sure there is nothing strange running in there!

Step 6: Press windows key an R at the same time and something named run should pop up type msconfig
Navigate to services and turn off anything that you dont use or need in there but please be careful an dont shut off services that windows need to run! prntscr.com/gkm22g

Step 7: Press windows key and R at the same time and type %temp% into the run box and if your temp is very full and has a lot of stuff in it prntscr.com/gkm2wq just press Ctrl and A at the same time and delete everything the things that are still running wont be deleted dont worry!

Security

Secuirty is not black or white you know there are many factors involved im only giving my opinions here

If you have a high spec or decent spec computer i would recommend Bit defender Best Protection. Best Performance
on a few tests it did perform the best and had a better detection rate than Kaspersky, Symantec, McAfee and many more!
It did block the wannacry ransomeware attack that did hit the NHS and many other world wide services! so bit-defender customers was safe! Get 90 days for free on bit defender total security! www.bitdefender.com/site/Facebook/redFreeDownload
alternatively
if you are a VERY LOW spec user for optimized low CPU usage but with bit defenders signature integrated into IOBITS software id recommend IOBIT Advanced system care Ultimate www.iobit.com/en/advanced-systemcare-antivirus.php
5F90C-4A11F-1BD01-DAC74 that code will l give you the pro edition for 200 days.

Chrome extensions id recommend -
Fair Adblocker by Stands prntscr.com/gkm77k it has amazing protection and is grate at blocking ads! prntscr.com/gkm7rb

If your bored of the usual new tab new id go for this chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/home-n...fpfhnmdmflkbgk?hl=en it has a beautiful lay out and its very combustible and efficient!

For a fast and responsive EXTENSION VPN id really recommend Windscribe chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/windsc...nngilcnanddlhb?hl=en for the speed and the fact they keep NO LOGS! its perfect!
