One of the most important things you can do for your Macbook Pro is to keep it running as quickly and efficiently as it can. There are a number of ways you can accomplish this, as long as you know the proper steps you should take. Regular computer maintenance will not only make it easier and less stressful to use, but also help to extend the overall lifespan of the machine.

Here are a few ways you can make your laptop run faster:

  • Check the login items: There are certain apps and features that open up as you login to your computer. The amount of program that open when the computer boots up can significantly slow down your machine, so you should get rid of as many of these as possible. Simply go to System Preferences, click on Users & Groups and then go in Login Items. This tab will let you select which apps open as your computer warms up and you can shrink that list as much as you like.
  • Delete what you don't need: Too many computers are weighed down by apps and old documents that the owner no longer uses or needs. You can do your Macbook a huge favor by going through everything you have downloaded on a regular basis and clearing out what no longer matters to you.
  • Keep the OS up to date: One of the best ways you can ensure that your Macbook runs efficiently is by making sure that you have the latest operating system updates installed. If you allow your system to become too outdated, soon your apps and files won't be able to open or run properly.
