Windows 10 Performance Tip #1

Improve Windows 10 performance by making it ugly. This is one small change among many that might make your Windows 10 perform faster.

Press the Windows key.

Type 'performance'.

Click on 'Adjust the appearance and performance of Windows'.

Choose 'Adjust for best performance'.

Click OK.

Things will look more ugly. I rarely notice, though.
