How do I remove junk files for free?
My computer has become so-o-o- slow. I still use XP. I am wary of these firms ( MYPC.com, PC matic, etc) that advertize that they will speed up the computer by removing Junk files, etc. I have had a problem in the past with a firm because once they have your credit card they charge it monthly for "maintenance". Can anyone recommend a way to clean out the files, or a free program that does a good job.
