Removing the Duplicate Files from Your Computer


Have you been bothered that your disk space is taken up by a large number of big useless and duplicate files after using the computer for a period of time? Removing such files is the good method to free up disk space, and have you ever tried to delete them manually? But sometimes it is headache which files should be removed.

It is known to all that such files are nothing but slow down your computer speed, take up disk space and do harm to computer. And, there is still something you should know.

Usually, you should form a habit to clean up the hard disk and categorize the downloaded or copied files regularly and carefully. It is important for you to remove the repeating files. For those useless files, you can delete or put them into a specialized catalog. By doing this, you can find them at any time and save the disk space as well.

But if you want to try to delete them manually, you can enter into "Tool" to choose "Option" > "Normal" tab, then tick "Import Delete Duplicate Files Automatically", what is more, you can set to exclude the repeating pictures. It is a good way to delete those duplicate files.

Even though, you had better be careful to remove the duplicate files. When finding them and before making any decision, it is safer to change the name of the folders, and then to see whether the system is running normally or not. And then, you can remove the repeating files.


How to Restore System Settings Easily


Knowing how to restore computer settings is a GREAT ace to have up your sleeve. One minute your computer is working perfectly, doing everything a good computer should do. Next minute everything goes haywire - and all because you downloaded that stupid programme! If you could only go backwards. Well, the good news is - you CAN - once you know how to use this little known facility on Windows...

So what is it?

Windows has a facility called System Restore which works a lot like the Undo command in Microsoft Word. You can use it to remove any PROGRAMS or SOFTWARE installed or updated since the last time your computer was working correctly.

Even better, System Restore will NOT change or delete your personal data files (eg Microsoft Word documents, emails etc).

Here is how it works:

- Windows frequently records a snapshot of your computer - these snapshots are called restore points.
- You choose a restore point of the last time you know your computer was OK and it will be returned to it's previous state.

Let me tell you exactly what to do:

- Click Start
- Point to All Programs => Accessories => System Tools
- Click System Restore
- Select Restore My Computer To An Earlier Time
- Select a date on the calendar that you want your PC to restore to.

That's how to restore computer settings - and it IS quick and easy, isn't it. This simple skill can save you hours of frustration. No need to tear your hair out the next time you run into a problem!
