How To: Optimize Windows Background Apps


Applications Running in the Background

We usually don't give much thought when it comes to background applications. That is until our Zoom meeting goes glitchy or we receive a error.

A background task is any program activity that has been registered with the system to run without the app being open. Windows runs these apps for notification purposes.

Reducing background tasks reduces processor load. Reducing processor load equates to a cooler running processor. A cooler running processor is..... well.... you get the hint.   

You can select which apps/tasks can be turned off. Simply click on the Start Menu.

In the Search bar type Background Apps and click Open.

 Next, select which Background apps you want to discontinue running. 

Which apps should you keep running? Well..... it's recommended to keep Settings, any Printing Apps, Microsoft Store, and of course Windows Security turned on. 

Any other apps you could turn off to reduce processor time/load.

    There is another reason you need to seek excellence - the best and most threatening of your competitors also do the same. You must always understand what your competitors are up to. SEO Antwerpen

    Solar panels are made up of solar cells. An individual solar cell is not able to produce enough power for most purposes; therefore, several are joined in solar panels because of course, they create more electricity together. Solar panels are available in many types and sizes, the most typical of which produce as much as 50 W of electricity and consist of silicon solar cells. Interconnecting solar panels produce even more electricity. www.zonnepanelen-soloya.nl/service/zonnepanelen-kopen

    Renewable power sources, by definition, are limitless, unlike fossil fuel. As renewable energy technology continues to mature and the prices of accepted power sources rise, solar technology is starting to become more affordable. www.zonnepanelen-soloya.nl/beste-zonnepanelen-merken

    From the statistics, a large percentage of SEOs receive a low income something that suggests low pricing of SEO services. SEO

    One is that you can apply to be connected to the grid in the regular way, so that this acts as a back-up supply for when your solar panels are not operating as would be the case after dark. Zonnepanelen plaatsen
