Almost everything is now available on the internet. This has connected people worldwide. Nowadays we cannot live a day without the internet, to connect to the internet we need a reliable laptop or a desktop which can ease or communicate with the internet. Without a powerful laptop or PC, we cannot do things on time. Laptops and PC’s have become an integral part of our lives. We use our laptop or PC’s to work and if this machine faces some issues then it can cost us. If our laptop or PC are started slowing down then it can cause us more time than earlier, then it will directly affect our productivity. So to keep our work on track we have to maintain our laptop or PCs.
One of the most common things that happen with any laptop is that it started to slow down after some period of time. This can happen due to many reasons but the most common reason for this can be SuperFetch error. This is a common type of error in Windows devices which causes devices to slow down. If your device is also facing the same issue then do not worry, I am going to talk about this and if you don’t know what is this error and how to find it. I will explain everything in this article.
SuperFetch came after the PreFetch, which was launched along with the Windows Vista operating system. SuperFetch is a process which is connected with the RAM of the device. In this process, it evaluates computer and user behaviour and creates a profile consisting of the applications that a user uses more frequently. In short, the SuperFetch process detects the apps that the user uses the most and loads the elements of these apps into the RAM so that when the user opens these applications they will load much faster. The primary aim behind this system is to reduce the time for opening the app and provide the user quick and seamless transaction. This application is very useful for computers with an HDD rather than SSD. As this application does not load on the SSD and SSD are quite fast compared to the HDD.
The theory behind SuperFetch was good, but it had a more negative effect on the performance than positive. As SuperFetch is running in the background it imposes more pressure on the computer. CPU and RAM are the primary targets for this.
As the CPU and RAM start running these applications in the background it negatively affects the currently running application which led to hanging and crashing as well as a reboot of the system. This problem becomes huge with computers with RAM less than 4 GB. Due to this problem, many people change their PC or change the hardware but that will partly solve this issue as this problem is more software-centric than hardware.
There are different ways to do it, but I am mentioning a few types from which you can try to solve this issue. I am mentioning a few of them below.
