Friend, have you ever discovered that your Windows XP system is not fast enough? Is it true that although the hardware configuration is already very high, some places seem to be "inevitably" and need to wait? In fact, many systems have a longer waiting timeout condition, which causes you to "wait" with them. As long as you change the waiting delay in these places in the registry to a smaller size, especially when turning on and off, the system speed will significantly speed up.
●Reduce the scroll time of the power-on scroll bar:
Every time you start Windows XP, the blue scroll bar has to be on many times. In fact, we can also reduce its scrolling time to speed up the startup speed. Open the registry editor, find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE＼SYSTEM＼CurrentControlSet＼Control＼Session Manager＼Memory Management＼PrefetchParameters, find the EnablePrefetcher primary key on the right, change its default value 3 to 1, so that the scrolling time of the scroll bar will be reduced.
●Accelerate shutdown:
When shutting down in XP, the system sends a message to the running program and the remote server, telling them that the system wants to shut down, and waits for a response to be received before the system starts shutting down. To speed up the startup speed, you can set the automatic ending task first. First, find HKEY_CURRENT_USER＼Control Panel＼Desktop, set the key value of AutoEndTasks to 1, and change WaitToKillAppTimeout to 1000 (wait for only one second); then there is a "HungAppTimeout" under this branch, change its value to "200 (meaning for 0.5 seconds)", which is the default to 50000; then find HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE＼System＼CurrentControlSet＼Control＼, and set WaitToKillServiceTimeout to "1000 (meaning for only one second)"; by setting the shutdown speed in this way, it is significantly faster.
● Remove menu delay:
When we first introduced the appearance modification of the registry, we once wrote about removing the disturbing problem of automatically popping up the menu. This is satisfying for some users, but for others, they may prefer to pop up the menu quickly to reflect the speed of the system. Moreover, in order to achieve visual realism, the menu in Windows XP does add a slide out effect when it is opened, which also delays the opening speed. We can find the "MenuShowDelay" primary key under HKEY_CURRENT_USER＼Control Panel＼Desktop, and change its value to "0" to remove the menu delay effect.
●Accelerate online neighbors
It is quite annoying to access online neighbors in Windows XP. The system will search for its own shared directory and printers that can be shared as a network, as well as planned tasks and network-related scheduled tasks, and then display them. Obviously, the speed will be much slower than in Windows 9x. In fact, we have not used these functions. Instead of not using them, it is better to delete them, so the speed will be significantly faster. Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\sofeware\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Explore\RemoteComputer\NameSpace, delete the (printer) and {D6277990-4C6A-11CF8D87- 00AA0060F5BF} (scheduled tasks), restart the computer, and access the online neighbors again, you will find that it is much faster.
●Block ActiveX plug-ins:
Although ActiveX plug-in makes some web pages more exciting and beautiful, it also brings us a lot of inconvenience, such as constantly prompting message boxes for certificate-related pop-ups. If you agree to install the relevant certificate, it will have an impact on the default home page, etc. Some users dislike it very much, which greatly affects the speed of browsing the web page. In fact, as long as you modify it slightly in the registry, you can block the ActiveX plug-in, so as to achieve blocking of 3721/CNNIC/BAIDU, etc., and basically will not affect the browsing of web pages. This not only protects the security of IE, but also speeds up the browsing of web pages. This is the ideal method.
Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility subkey branch and find the
{B83FC273-3522-4CC6-92EC-75CC86678DA4} (corresponding to 3721)
{9A578C98-3C2F-4630-890B-FC04196EF420} (corresponding to CNNIC)
{CF051549-EDE1-40F5-B440-BCD646CF2C25} (corresponding to POPO)
{4EDBBAEA-F509-49F6-94D1-ECEC4BE5B686} (corresponding to Chinese post)
{BC207F7D-3E63-4ACA-99B5-FB5F8428200C} (corresponding to Baidu)
{9BBC1154-218D-453C-97F6-A06582224D81} (corresponding to Baidu)
{00000566-0000-0010-8000-00AA006D2EA4} (corresponding to 2.7)
{4B106874-DD36-11D0-8B44-00A024DD9EFF} (corresponding to 2.5)
Change the value of the double-byte key-value item "Compatibility Flags" in the window to the right to 0x00000400.
In this way, you no longer have to worry about being illegally harassed by websites such as 3721, and you can browse your favorite web pages as you like.
