Hi Pittan Disk cleanup and defrag are great tools for helping your computer performance. One thing you may want to check for is a virus, viruses do cause systems to slow down. make sure your software anti virus definitions are up to date and complete a full scan and take care of any of the viruses found (If your virus definitions are not up to date, new viruses can slip by). Also make sure that all of your software/hardware and windows are up to date. Sometimes there are windows updates that are crucial for your system, make sure you have automatic updates enabled.
