Abstract

Almost every Microsoft Windows user at some point in life must have experience that his/her laptop or desktop has gone down slow and is just not performing swiftly as it used to do when Windows was initially installed on that system. This results in decreased performance of the system in over a few weeks of fresh installation of Microsoft Redstone 3 OS, the system starts to show degraded performance and increased bootup and shutdown times. This is not only the case, the loading of documents and power point files along with other programs gets slow. The system gets slower and slower. To tackle this challenge, we propose a solution in this paper that will optimize the starting and shutdown times of Redstone 3 OS with marked improvement.
