Things You'll Need

• Computer
• Cleaning App

Instructions

1. 

   CC Cleaner. This is a free program that I use to remove the excess files, cookies, temp folders on the computer. After surfing around the Internet the files start to stack up after a few days and slow down the computer considerably. This causes the computer to boot slower and load programs much slower. Download this program at sites like download.com.

2. Install the program. Install the program and run it immediately. Once the application is open click the cleaner icon/applications. Check the programs that you want to clean in the browser. For example:
   Temporary Internet Files
   Cookies
   History
   Recently Typed URLs
   Delete Index. dat files
   Last Downloaded
   Auto-complete Form History

   Click Windows Explorer. Click the boxes that are appropriate. Click System, Advanced. Check appropriate boxes.

3. Click Analyze Computer. The program returns results about number of megabytes it clears up after cleaning checked items. Now click cleaner. The cleaning process takes from a few seconds to minutes. Once the cleaning process is complete close the program. This application removes malware, suspicious programs, unwanted programs, clean up the registry.
