What Do You Do With a Slow Computer?

Cleaning Up & Optimizing Performance

If you have used your computer for some time, you have probably encountered a situation where its performance seemed less than when it was brand new. We’ve all been there. At this month’s meeting, we will examine the causes of slow computer performance and whether it’s the hardware, software, or internet connection. Then we’ll go over some ways to optimize and speed up your personal computer, for both Windows and macOS. We’ll also provide some advice on determining what hardware capabilities are needed for your computing tasks.

Join us at the Cochise College Downtown Center, 2600 E. Wilcox Drive in Sierra Vista, room G106, and learn how to speed up your computer hardware. Coffee, donuts, pastries, and bagels are free, but we appreciate your donations to help offset MVCUG expenses.

All meetings are recorded and available for members online. If you are a paid member you will receive an email with the video link two to three weeks after the meeting.
