I say for windows users only cause I do NOT know how to do Netscape (if its still around??? ) and I do NOT know about AOL. OK... THANKSSSSSS ..
Now this has NOTHING to do with the internet.. OK??? wanted to clear that up first... lolol
Computer : Start Button.
Go to : ALL PROGRAMS.
Go to : ACCESSORIES.
Go to : SYSTEM TOOLS
Go To : DISK DEFRAGMENTOR
When that window comes up. Just click on Defragmentation.
get up walk away. leave it alone til it is done.
PREFERABLEY !!!! DO THIS AT BEDTIME OR WHEN YOU WILL BE AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER FOR AT LEAST AN HOUR OR MORE, ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE NEVER DONE THIS BEFORE.
OK
As I explain this to people : your hard-drive is like your desktop, ok???
you go to pay january bills and you leave it strolled where you wrote the cks and just got up and walked away ... OK
then you do feb - mar - april - .. soon its a hodge podge and your going to have to clean it up.. file things. OK
Well, this is about the same concept with DEFRAGGING YOUR HARD-DRIVE.
Every time you open a program it does NOT replace it from where it got it. It just closes it where it is. EVEN THOUGH YOU DO NOT SEE THAT. okkkk?
Depending on how much you use the puter it is good to do this atleast once a month.
I normally tell people when first starting out. To get in the habit, do this weekly.
But depending on how long you have had your computer, and depending on how much is on the computer, the first time you do this IT CAN TAKE AT LEAST 1 HOUR TO 5 HOURS... WALK AWAY LEAVE IT ALONE ... OK....
ALSO FOR THOSE THAT MIGHT NOT KNOW :
THE C DRIVE IS THE HARD DRIVE ON YOUR COMPUTER, this is the one that YOU want to make sure its high lighted to defrag. OK
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DEFRAG ANY OTHER DRIVE !!!!!!!! OK
