    Hi, so you want to "de-slow down" your PC, I think the verb you were looking for is "speed up".

    After that, it's up to you to see which software to uninstall, I saw you have a downloading software, so first try to sort that out, and also regarding the .torrents, for that you press the Windows key (Windows logo) + R and type in (type, type..., sorry) %AppData% and look for your torrent software then delete files that you no longer use.

      Thank you for the torrent tip. I'll reinstall my whole PC as a last resort.
      I've also made a hijack list, but I don't know how to interpret the results... : /
      What should I do?
      Thank you in advance.

      I don't understand the message you posted above either... (that's true, no irony)
      In the software to remove, it's not up to us to judge like that, but since you have µTorrent, it means you're downloading, so start by sorting through the downloaded files. To start their downloads, you've retrieved .torrent files, which are very light and, once opened in µTorrent, start the download of your files. And µTorrent keeps all its .torrent files, even if you don't save them.
      So, you should also clean all that up. To access the folder where they are, hold down the Windows key (on your keyboard, with the Windows logo) and the R key, then a "Run" window will open. Type %AppData% in there and hit enter. Then a new window opens, you have a ton of folders, go to µTorrent and check the .torrent files to delete, as they can quickly take up space.

    Why don't you reset your PC? It would be better than uninstalling everything one by one. You can keep whatever you want on a hard drive or a USB stick, and then you can reset your PC to factory settings. :)
