Hello nairalanders,
Pls my p.c has been acting weird lately,
Its 4gb/500gb, the system is almost empty as I only av photoshop and a few files! (Not up to 50gb)
I've been using dis system fr 1yr plus, works perfectly and very fast nd I formated it just once.

But recently, d system boots very fast, but wen it gets to desktop, anything I click on become very slow, extremely slow to d point of hanging!! When I refresh it refreshes again!

Its workin perfectly wen I boot frm safe mode, but safe mode isn't effective.!! Pls help, wat can b d likely causes and the solution to this!!! Pics attached below

Photoshop app on its own may not be up to 50g but it’s output may exceed 50g.

If you’ve been working and saving jobs on photoshop for the past one year, then it’s possible that those files are eating up space.

-Run disk defragmenter.

-Delete unwanted files.

-Run malwarebytes anti malware software incase there is/are malwares running in the background.

-is your desktop cluttered? Asin do you leave things on your desktop instead of taking them to their respective system folders? Well then you need to clear the clutter on your desktop.

-A hardware component in your system may have gone bad, you need to investigate that too.

-Check to see if you have outdated drivers.

-Stop opening a million tabs on separate browsers at the same time if you’re not using the latest MacBook pro.
