    Windows 10 - Background Apps

    A factor that can only be beneficial to the operation of Windows is to check the Background Apps and turn OFF all those which are unnecessary.
    Windows default is that all these apps are turned ON.

    When I checked my Background Apps there were 34 listed and all of them were ON !! I think that a Windows update did this, since I had edited the list some months ago.
    I have now set only 14 turned ON.

    Apps running in the background all take energy and slow down the computer and 34 is a lot of apps.

    To see all the background Apps - type in "Background Apps" in the taskbar search and click open.
