If you've ever wondered why your computer is so frustratingly slow, one reason is that your PC is bogged down with junk you don't need. There are folders, files and pieces of links you don't even know are there.

At Komando.com, we're always looking for free fixes that can help you speed up your computer. We found one you should know about that also helps protect your privacy.

Once you download Wise Care 365, you'll see a big box with easy-to-read tabs that'll show you everything you can do with it. That starts with PC Checkup.
