How to Do Disk Cleanup to Make Your Computer Run Faster

Does your computer seem sluggish? How long has it been since you cleaned your disk drive?  As a best practice, the IT team at CAL Business Solutions recommends that our Dynamics GP,  Acumatica and Cavallo  SalesPad partners perform a disk cleanup at least once a month. This will delete temporary files, empty the Recycle Bin and remove a variety of files and other items that are no longer needed.
