How do you make your computer run faster?

As you surf the Internet on your computer your computer picks up as you surf, cookies. These cookies tell companies or individuals what you are interested in whether you give them permission to do this or not. This is the primary reason your computers slow down because your computer is bogged down by telling those people or businesses what you are interested in browsing when you are on your computer. the same with your smartphone when you surf online.

So, if you are in Google Chrome like I am now just go to where it says "History" at the top of your screen. From the left it says Chrome, then "File" then "View" and then "History". Now click History and a screen will drop down now look at the bottom of this screen and it says "Show full History".

IF you want to delete the History of your computers online places it has gone since you bought it then click "Show Full History" to begin this process.

Then the next screen that comes up "if you want your computer to run faster you click, "Clear Data to clear all browsing Data. This should make your computer run a lot faster than before. I usually do this daily or weekly or monthly or whenever I think of it to keep my computer running at it's top speed always and this should delete all cookies up to that moment. The reason you keep doing this is you are going to pick up more cookies whenever you go online. So, do this either every day, once a week or once a month to keep your computer running it's fastest.

You can also do something similar on your Iphone if you go into Safari there. Someone showed me how to do this recently.

However, don't click more checks than you already see there unless you are a computer expert because deleting too much information can also be a problem. All we are really trying to do here is to delete cookies mostly. Also, when you do this you are going to have to log back  into whatever you were doing before too.
