If in your PC hard drive is NTFS formatted then the Indexing Service will have been automatically switched on when Windows was installed .
The Indexing Service works in the background and produces an index of the content of your all documents and files . This makes it much faster when you do a search for documents - i.e "search for documents containing the word moinsbd" .
But for that occasional speed boost you pay heavily in terms of general computer speed and disk capacity . Every time you save a document in hard drive the index is updated , hence slowing down the action .
And the index for a document occupies an additional 30% of the documents original space .
If the File system is FAT32 then you don't have the option of using Indexing . So you don't need to proceed with this tips .
But if the File system is NTFS then you should :
Click Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs > Add/Remove Windows Components and now Find Indexing services and left click to deselect it .
When Windows has finished implementing this change (it takes a while) you should notice a real improvement in your PC speed . . . . . . .
