7 Myths About Computer and Software

Here We Go!!!

1. Most Popular Software are always the Best

Software Some people become very popular in their field and adored by the public and critics that you can not ignore them. Take the example of Photoshop for editing photos and Word Processor - Microsoft Word. Actually, most have the potential to earn the privilege to be called Best but still it varies depending on your needs.

Suppose, you need to upload photos to Web Gallery; Do you really need Photoshop to edit in this case? Photoshop has a number of tools and features that you might think it necessary for your work and your job complicated. Along with some skill, it also requires a powerful computer to initiate and process images.

Also, this is not free and many times you have to pay for software licenses. So it's better to go for a simple image editor or use an online photo editor. If the type of professional output is expected GIMP can also do wonders.

Therefore, entirely dependent on the type of work to be done and the expected output before selecting software.

2. You need to Pay for Good Software
The number of free programs able to achieve good performance or even better than the paid far more than you think.The same goes for the Games, you can not ignore the fact that there are a number of free games that can keep you engaged for hours. Also, the office suite and multimedia conversion software for free or for managing projects.
So, there's always a free alternative to paid software but the problem is with the expectations of users who expect an identical program. Logically, some change orders, and there are certain limits. Popular Autocad even have a free alternative.
The exception is for the program are very specific and highly technical, such as processors and graphics modeling, advanced animation software, plugins and audio editors, as well as the interfaces developed for niche markets.
Another common situation: many people spend enough time looking for some free programs that meet the needs of your company or a particular business. For, not found, often just hire someone to develop a platform, not realizing that paying for a program that has been tested may have been cheaper.

3. Software version always Should Be Updated
The message tells the user to create operating system updates, programs, browsers and components are part of our day. Thus arises the eternal question: Do we need or not need to be upgraded to the latest version?
In most cases, NO. Update does not always mean improvement due to the short-term notice that most of the small changes that do not affect everyone. For example, some small manufacturers correct errors at times affect few users, and decided to upgrade the product from version 4.0.1.1 to 4.0.1.2.
However, significant changes are not always added. Why lose a weekly (or even daily) updates? The solution for those who do not like this unpleasant situation, you can disable the warning about the last update.
When we talk about anti-virus, is indispensable to maintain the latest updates. For the new threats created being launched every day at the network, database protection program needs to be updated, so often, updates are performed automatically.


4. More the number of Programs installed, the worse performance

Dozens of factors affect the speed of computers, ie, no formula that determines accurate performance. However, the set of hardware and the periodic system maintenance operations is a key ingredient to achieve a fast and powerful computers.

Each instruction programs installed to modify the system registry and some include tickets to start automatically with Windows (or even with the application or internet connection). Ignoring this, programs and games also take up space on the HD.

These conditions can jeopardize the performance of duties. However, only in extreme situations. When the HD is full of content (more than 80% occupied), space for virtual memory will be smaller, which affects the processing speed of RAM.

In such cases, you can find these programs consume more CPU and RAM and using Windows Cleaners.

5. The format is the ultimate solution for Slow Computers

Some computer technicians consider the format as a standard procedure, believing that the process is capable of solving all problems. In general, erase everything and start from scratch effective, but not the only way.

There are other ways to improve performance without having to go to As occurs in relation to the amount of installed programs "drastic action." Recognizing a program that starts with Windows, the registry cleaner and keep some space on your hard drive helps performance.

Sometimes, even Disk Defragmenting to organize files in a format sorted for faster access to it is recommended and encouraged to use the All in one Software Disk Management.

6. Computer can not be connected for a long time

Just like we do with other electronics, usually disconnect the computer when not in use. Think clearly, because it saves hardware and save the light. What to do when we make downloading very large and the connection works?

Is there a problem if we leave the computer logged in to download files? No, not your computer will melt if connected to three or four days.

However, it is true that the life of the component parts is reduced when the computer work for a longer time. Not proved in relation to continuous uptime and wear faster computer. In the midst of all this, is a valid indication to disconnect from the monitor.

Tip: the longer the computer is connected and processing operations, more information is stored in RAM (even if you close all programs, there is a gap). Reboot the system now and then delete the temporary records and prevent the slow RAM.

7. Screensaver Protects Computer Screen

The name "saver" confuses many people who think that the screensaver extend the life of the monitor and ensure the smooth., At first CRT tube model, screen savers they will completely avoid the loss of screen brightness.

However, with current technology (LCD, LED and so on.), A screensaver function that decorate the screen and there is no light or "protection."

As mentioned above, the best way to keep your screen or turn off the laptop monitor / screen, another solution is to program the system hibernate (standby) automatically, after some time unused.
