22. Run System File Checker through command prompt (Run it as admin) by typing sfc /scannow
23. Only install programs you need and use. Use custom installation and install your programs in different partition as much as you can. Leave drive C: alone. Create partition with reasonable amount of storage. For example if your hard drive space is 750 GB then around 80 GB should be enough for all your files and programs. Try not to install too many programs in drive C.
24. Save all your files in different partition, probably in same partition as your programs. Do not save any files in drive C and keep it clean at all time. Make sure that it is DE-fragmented.
25. Avoid saving too much files (Specially media files) on your PC. Save them as much as you can in External hard drive or use free online storage like Dropbox!!
26. Avoid installing and uninstalling too much during short period, this can cause your PC to slow down during start up and specially when shutting down.
27. Hide unused fonts (unnecessary fonts) from control panel to speed up your boot time.
