    Deleting temporary Internet files, installed components and programs that are no longer in use, and emptying the ** station are equivalent to file deletion work on the hard disk, and file deletion work has much less read and write volume for the hard disk than defragmentation. For defragmentation, it is enough to come once a month, and the read and write speed of the hard disk is improved, but it will not free up excess disk space; Disk cleanup is good for saving disk space, freeing up excess disk space, which is conducive to speeding up the system, but has little impact on the read and write speed of the hard disk. Therefore, it is enough to run it once when the disk is cleaned, and defragment once every two months.

    Disk Cleanup has the least damage to the hard drive and the most system optimization, so it's okay five times a day. Defragmentation is more damaging to the hard disk and has little system optimization. Do you use Rising Card for Disk Cleanup?

    In fact, just like the cleaning tool that comes with the system (it should be called), you right-click to open the properties of any drive letter, click on the disk cleanup in the first menu, and the card cleaner is the same.

    First of all, you have to distinguish two concepts: one is disk cleanup, which refers to cleaning up unused files on the disk, and the other is disk defragmentation

    Refers to consolidating fragmented files on a disk. If you do disk cleanup frequently, it will not have much impact on the disk, but if you do it frequently, the impact will be greater, because the disk defragmentation has a large number of visits to the disk.

    Can't be too often.

    If it's not that the machine is stuck abnormally or there is not enough space, there is no need to clean the hard drive.

    Just use 360 to clean up, this cleaning is not good at all.

    What you do is right, harmful.

    Hard disks are made up of service life, the more times they are used, the more reads and writes they are, the shorter the life of the hard disk will be, which is unavoidable, because everything has a day when it is used and broken. Excessive reads and writes will eventually lead to bad sectors on the hard drive. And if you often uninstall and install programs, the files on the hard disk will become more and more fragmented, there will be a lot of file fragments, read and write will be slowed down, and the life of the hard disk will be shortened.

    In fact, if you take care of it properly, the hard drive can still last for a long time:

    1.Do not turn on the computer within 30 seconds after shutting down, hibernating, or standby, as this will hurt the hard disk. As a last resort, do not suddenly lose power or reboot while your computer's hard drive is working.

    2.Do not move the computer when the hard disk is working, and prevent vibration after removing a few items from the hard disk.

    3.Do more hard drive maintenance work, such as disk scanning and disk defragmentation.

    4.If there are bad sectors on your hard drive, it means that your hard drive is about to die, use a partition tool to hide the bad sectors and back up important files.

    5.The most important point: do not format the hard drive casually, especially low-level formatting, this operation will shorten the life of the hard drive the most.

    Won't clean up the disk is included with Windows.

    Cleanup tool. Usually when surfing the Internet.

    Some ** and other things in the web page will be cached in a fixed area, and will be automatically cleaned up when it is shut down.

    But due to the design flaws of Windows itself.

    Sometimes some junk files are left on the disk.

    So Windows provides a manual cleanup tool.

    The garbage can be cleaned up after cleaning.

    Quite convenient.

    Usually not

    Disk Cleanup is Win's own system software, just like Win's own, no matter how you use it, it will not cause damage to the hard disk.

    Disk Cleanup is to clean out junk files and fragmented files, some will be automatically deleted by the system, but some still won't.

    The bad consequences are there, but the benefits are:

    In fact, there should be no doubt about deciding your hard drive on a regular basis. If hard drive defragmentation does damage a hard drive, it's after an almost astronomical number of hard drive defragmentations.

    As the hard drive is used for a long time, the location of the files becomes fragmented – the contents of the files will be scattered in different locations on the hard drive. The presence of these "fragmented files" can slow down the productivity of your hard drive and increase the likelihood of data loss and data corruption. The defragmenter collects these fragments together and stores them on the hard disk as a contiguous whole.

    Windows comes with a program called DiskDefragmenter, but there are better ones in the utilities NortonUtilities and Nuts&Bolts.

    However, defragmenting is a lot of work for the moving parts of a hard drive. If the hard drive has reached the end of its life, defragmenting can indeed be a suicidal act. But in this case, even if you don't defragment, the hard drive will crash quickly.

    In fact, in most cases, regular hard drive defragmentation reduces the wear and tear of the hard drive. Regardless, it's much easier to have the head of your hard drive read a file from 1 than it is to read it from 8. As a result, a hard drive that is cleaned every two weeks or four weeks should last longer than a hard drive that is never organized.

    In fact, disk fragmentation should be called file fragmentation because files are scattered and stored in different places throughout the disk, rather than being continuously stored in continuous clusters of disks.

    When the physical memory required by the application is insufficient, the general operating system will generate a temporary swap file in the hard disk, and use the hard disk space occupied by the file to virtualize the memory. The virtual memory manager will frequently read and write to the hard disk, resulting in a large amount of fragmentation, which is the main reason for the fragmentation of the hard disk.

    Others, such as temporary files generated by Internet Explorer when browsing information or the setting of temporary file directories, will also cause a large number of fragments to form in the system. File fragmentation generally does not cause problems in the system, but too many file fragments will cause the system to look back and forth when reading files, causing system performance degradation and serious shortening of hard disk life. In addition, excessive disk fragmentation can lead to the loss of stored files.

    Generally, it is about once a month, and if you frequently install and delete software, you need to shorten the time interval between decluttering disks.

    It is recommended to clean up regularly, don't clean up often, it's not good for the disk!!

    Haha, I don't know where you heard about it, clean up the garbage if you have it, and clean it up regularly; Of course, if your machine is used by a lot of people, you can clean it up before using it!

    No. It is recommended to clean up more than once a week, just like cleaning once.

    No. Frequent disk cleanup accelerates aging It is recommended to clean up every three months.

There are many reasons for a computer's blue screen, but most of them are caused by overclocking, memory sticks, and hard disk issues. When the computer is overloaded with calculations, it will cause too much internal computing in the computer, and the temperature of the CPU will rise, resulting in system computing errors. When the computer is overclocked and causes the computer to blue screen, we can replace the computer with a more powerful fan, so that the heat dissipation effect of the computer will be better, and there will be no problem that the CPU temperature is too high and the system computing error will occur. >>>More
