How Cleaning Up Your Temporary Folder Can Make Your Computer Faster

Who would have ever thought that your computer operating system would be to blame for your computer running slow? Well guess what - it is. Your computer's operating system is designed to work as flawlessly as possible but unfortunately that isn't the case. What happens is that when you fir get your computer there really isn't anything on it and so if runs smoothly. The problem happens the more that you use it because junk starts to build up all over the computer in many different areas and this makes your computer run inefficiently. This is why people are so attracted to the idea of registry cleaners - they are designed to clean one area of your computer that runs inefficiently, but unfortunately it only cleans "one" area of your computer when there are many other areas that need to be taken care of. This is why after you use a registry cleaner your computer really isn't that much faster.

Your computer operating system uses RAM as a temporary working area for files and programs but sometimes those files that are being used in RAM are going to also need a temporary working area. This new temporary working area is a folder on your hard drive called the Temp folder. When your files in your RAM are done using the Temp folder Windows will automatically delete everything in that folder. The issue happens when your computer freezes, hangs or you end a program. All of the files that were in the Temp folder are still in there and they haven't been deleted. This may not sound like much but after time these files can add up to a lot and start to slow your computer down. Here is how you get rid of them:

If you are running Windows XP on your computer just close all the running files and programs and then click on Start, click on Run and then type %Temp% in the little box and then hit the enter key. Now you're going to get another small window that will now show you what is in your Temp folder. All you have to do now is to just delete everything that you possibly can in that folder. If for some odd reason it says that you cannot delete a certain file, just skip it and move onto the next one.

For those of you that are currently using Windows Vista, close all of your running programs and files, click Start in the left hand corner of your screen and type Run in the start menu search box. A small Run window should comes up now. Just type %Temp% and hit enter. Now what you are going to want to do is to delete everything that you see in that folder. If there are some files that you cannot delete that are in that folder, then just ignore them and move onto the next one.

By cleaning up your Temp folder regularly you are first freeing up your computer of hard drive space which will make it run faster in the long run (it will have less files that it will have to manage) and your computer will also have less internal errors.
