My computer is running very slowly.

The older a computer gets, the slower it runs.

Why?

There are several reasons why a computer slows down over time. Here are a few reasons:

1. The hard drive gets fragmented from daily use, and this causes it to run inefficiently.

2. There are unnecessary programs in the Startup menu that are opening automatically when the computer starts. These programs use your system memory even when you aren’t using them, thus slowing down your system.

3. Your computer may have a small or large virus/malware infection causing everything to run slowly.

4. Lack of System Memory (RAM): Computer software is constantly becoming more demanding on hardware. If you bought a computer that ran fast 4 years ago but have loaded some newer software onto that computer, it runs slower because the newer software is placing a heavier load on the older hardware. The result is everything still works…slowly.
