PC Health Advisor is compatible with all versions of Windows right up to Windows 10 64 bit. It also might be worth it to run the driver update tool as you could have several out of date drivers if you have an older computer. Defragging helps to put those pieces back together on the disk so the computer doesn’t have to work so hard to get the file pieces. All these pieces point to each other and the computer will have to reconstruct the pieces to fetch the file. When Windows stores files it often stores them in multiple pieces around the hard drive, depending on where there is free space. A lot of times you won’t even know that these programs are running!Īfter you run the scan you can then use the additional features such as the defrag tool, which I highly recommend. Having a lot of software loading into memory when you turn on your computer can really slow things down to a crawl. Probably the most helpful of these tools is the malware removal tool and the startup process tool. You can then fix these all at once, which will get you off to a good start. You can do a full system scan as a start, which will look for registry files and errors, active processes that are running in the background, any malware and spyware that you may have, unnecessary startup processes that might leech boot speed, and privacy files that you might want to remove. The software is basically comprised of a few scanning tools that you can use in order to find extra files, bad registry entries, and fragmented files. You definitely don’t have to read any manuals first to use the software as it’s pretty easy to jump right into. The buttons are large and informative and overall everything is pretty self explanatory.
