Hi

New laptop is already starting to run slowly. Piggin Windows 8.


I used to have Norton 360 which had various function to do disc clean
up, defrag etc.

Not sure if Norton 360 still has those functions? Don't like the price
of it either.

Anyone recommend a download that will clean up & improve speed?


One of the things that slows it down is all the crap software that
insists on setting up scheduled tasks to check for updates at system
start up or user log on and then every hour afterwards.
Defrag software is contained within Windows.
