The only thing I could not access was the 'registry' but it didn't matter because the results from following everything else in this tutorial as you described has made my life less stressful.

    We all know windows 8.1 is the best windows version in terms of speed/performance, and stability. The fastest to boot up. I am running this on my Acer netbook with 2gb ram, 1.6ghz dual core. Perfect! Nothing to complain about except the required resolution to run apps but who cares. It installed a program where i can make start menu like windows 7, and a little transparency on windows and voila!, Perfect!

    @user-xh2yl6md5r Před 5 lety +3

    I wouldn't recommend deleting the data in C:\Windows\Prefetch
    Each time you turn on your computer, Windows keeps track of the way your computer starts and which programs you commonly open. Windows saves this information as a number of small files in the prefetch folder. The next time you turn on your computer, Windows refers to these files to help speed the start process.
    The prefetch folder is a subfolder of the Windows system folder. The prefetch folder is self-maintaining, and there's no need to delete it or empty its contents. If you empty the folder, Windows and your programs will take longer to open the next time you turn on your computer.
