When you buy a car, it’s designed and configured to perform at factory stock settings. This default configuration is safe and reliable, but by no means is it optimal. You can increase your cars performance by giving it the right pair of tires, a new lighter rims, and add a spoiler. This idea is also applicable to the computers you buy from your local electronics store. You can free up an additional couple of gigs of space if you know what to remove. Removing those unnecessary programs would also free up memory and allow your PC to function better.
