Running an AV scan would depend on your internet usage, if your a general user, always on the same sites, and don’t use it much, not very often, but if your an internet junkie, then at least once a week.
Disk cleanup is the same. Defragment on today’s HDD’s is not necessary, but if you install/uninstall programs a lot, then you may want to do it once, or twice a year, just for GP. If you do install/unistall programs a lot, then I suggest you use revo uninstaller, read the description of the program in this link to see why, in short it will help keep your computer clean after an uninstall…http://download.cnet.com/Revo-Uninstalle…
If you download, and install the program from this site, make sure you uncheck all third party crap the installer will want to install along with the program, do a custom install.
It is inevitable that registry has some errors, due to various issues like program uninstallation, invalid operations by you, virus, etc. If you never clean your registry before, you should use a registry cleaner to do a scan and you will find there are bazillion redundant, corrupt and missing keys in it.The registry errors are the main causes of your computer running slow and some problems like freezes, blue screen, crash, etc. To make your computer run faster, you need to clean registry regularly.Frequent maintenance using a registry cleaner is crucial to make your computer go faster.I should like to commend Registry Easy to you ! The registry must be cleaned to make a computer run faster.
