Hello,

My computer is getting slower and slower, so I'm wondering about the programs after taking a little look at them.
Please tell me what they are for, whether they are useful or unnecessary.
Here's the list:
App explorer
Dashlane Update Service
Foxit Phantom PDF
Host App Service
KB4023057
Mozilla Maintenance Service

Thank you in advance for your help.
Have a nice evening.
Nathalie

    Hello,

    App explorer <= to remove
    Dashlane Update Service <= Dashlane allows you to manage passwords
    Foxit Phantom PDF <= PDF reader
    Host App Service <= to remove

    Install Speccy.
    Provide the CPU (processor) and GPU (graphics card) temperatures when you start a movie.
    Also check the hard drive (storage section) and the SMART data reported by Speccy, especially to see if the drive status is "good".
    See Speccy Tutorial for help

    Then to check the computer, I invite you to perform this FRST analysis and provide the reports back:

    Follow the FRST tutorial. ( take the time to read carefully - everything is well explained ).

    Download and run the FRST scan,
    Wait for the scan to finish, a message will indicate that the analysis is complete.

    Three FRST reports will be generated:
    • FRST.txt
    • Shortcut.txt
    • Additionnal.txt


    Send these 3 reports to the site https://pjjoint.malekal.com/ to share them.
    Return the 3 pjjoint links that lead to the reports here in a new response so that we can review them.

      Good evening,
      I have installed Speccy, and in the SMART it's "good"

      https://img-19.ccm2.net/LjA1L3B9ubm20Oxj0ju-uvCSG7w=/cffcb432f5964fb7b8ad5442507cda86/tmp/smart_du_30.06.2018.jpg

      As for the FRST, I plan to do it tomorrow evening… when I can be in peace, because even though I started reading it tonight, I need to reread it to avoid making a mistake and to be able to give you the necessary information to help me.

      Thank you again for your help.
      Have a good evening.
      Nathalie

      OK, we should also check the CPU temperatures on Speccy.
