I'm an IT Technician. I personally don't care if any of my users know or try this. But telling them "not to share with your technician" is pointless and just stupid. Most of the time we want to know what the users did to try to resolve it as it may change our plan of action on how to fix it for good. For instance, if a user runs MRT because they caught malware, we know it probably won't resolve the issue so we know to skip to a second-opinion scanner or reimaging. Or if a user is running out of disk space and deletes the contents of their user temp folder, we know to skip to system wide temp files or browser cache. I'm sick of these "cool gamer bros" acting like we're only out to get people in trouble. In many organizations that is not true, our job is to fix issues. It's HR and the administration you really have to look out for. Something has to be REALLY bad for me to take it to either of them.

This is only basic OS maintenance for a home computer. Still, wish most users had enough computer knowledge to clean up their own files, or least restart the darn thing correctly.

As desktop support, I strongly disagree with your take. First of all, someone who doesn't know what they're doing could disable the wrong startup items and most likely didn't take notes. 2nd of all, users need to understand that running an admin prompt needs to be handled with responsibility. They could delete critical files if they're not careful.

Bruh, MRT literally says that it is not an antivirus software that you should rely on and you should get one.

Y además, MRT no elimina todas las infecciones, lo siento.

Also make sure to always use the solid-state drive since this won’t really make any difference on a hard drive.

So in short: 1)Windows+R then MRT 2)Windows+R then %temp% 3)Ctrl+Shift+Esc then look at Startup apps 4)Look for CMD and run it in admin mode and then sfc /scannow.

If your IT is worth a darn, you won’t be able to run these. Also, don’t do this at home, because we won’t help you on your personal device when you break your applications.

Deleting the folders and files in %temp% can be harmful since these temporary files used to hold datas in program execution, instead better to use built-in clean up tools like 'Disk clean up' on windows

Please don't tell us because we've already known about this for years

Win + R: cmd CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER to run as administrator... ez

Another great speed improvement is adjusting the Swap from "system managed" to manual and put the minimum at 50Mb and the Maximum to your RAM capacity.. Esp if you still use a spinning rust drive.

If you have an IT department, you probably don't have privileges to do this stuff. And the malware scanning won't find all the IT-installed stuff that is actually slowing down your computer.

The real speed boost is disabling "core isolation" and "real time scan"

Delenting the temp files is a nightmare, not recommended it will make your computer slower until it makes temp files again.

I dont think a technician really give a f if you tell them that stuff.
