1. Declutter Your Digital Space

3. Manage Startup Apps
Many programs automatically launch at startup, consuming valuable system resources. Review your startup programs and immediately turn off applications you don’t need upon boot-up. This will free up memory and improve your computer’s overall speed.
4. Restart Power
Just like humans, computers sometimes need a refresh. A simple restart clears temporary files and frees up memory, often resulting in a noticeable performance boost.
5. Dust Regularly
Dust buildup can hinder your computer’s cooling system, leading to overheating and performance issues. To keep your device running cool and efficiently, regularly clean it (using compressed air or a professional cleaning service).
Following these simple tips, you can ensure your Mac or PC stays in top shape all summer. But remember, unexpected issues can still arise!
