Assume you have scanned for virus/malware problems? Do you have lots of
programs loading at boot time. Time for a defrag? Check for hard disk

Although many caution against the use of Registry cleaners, I have found
that they can be useful (used judiciously) in improving performance. After
a Windows update, I never cease to be amazed at how many Registry errors
are introduced which weren't there before the update.
