Simple way to make your PC organized - Remove your old, unnecessary files




Every computer user must feel confused to find out files or information on an unorganized computer. And a computer which is occupied by mass of unnecessary files, duplicated data or folders can be sluggish and annoying. So, if you want to prevent your computer from running slower and slower, one thing you must do is to organize your computer regularly and timely in various ways, such as deleting or removing old, unwanted, even duplicated files and folders to make your computer clean.


Do a thorough cleanup on old and unnecessary files by Windows itself

What we mean “old files” on your hard drive? If a specified file or folder you have not used for several months, it can be taken as “old files” which should be deleted from your computer or moved to be stored in somewhere else.

Therefore, the first thing you need to do is to define how old a file is. Here is an easy way to know how old a file is. Open the folder where your file is stored, move your mouse pointer over the file name and see when it was last modified. If you need to know more information on this file, just right click the file name and select Properties. In the pop-up Properties box, you can know all information on this file such as when the files was created, last modified time, and most recently accessed, size, and so on. If the file is an old one and have not been opened in more than half a year, it can be cleared out by right clicking the file name and selecting Delete. If you are not sure if the file is useful or not, here is another good suggestion for you, you can collect and store it to other places.

After deleting the old and unnecessary files, remember to do the last thing, that is, to empty your Recycle Bin.
