Starting, running, or loading applications specially those heavy or RAM consuming ones take longer time before you can work on it. Such applications are Adobe Photoshop, Dreamweaver, After Effects and a lot more. Why not speed them up with a trick? Follow the steps below and you'll see your application start up faster than before.
Steps:
1. Create a shortcut for the application you want to load/start faster.
- To do that, right click the application > Send To > Desktop (create shortcut).
- Or simply right-click any instance of Windows Explorer > New > Shortcut > enter Directory\AppName into the target field.
2. Right click on that shortcut and select "Properties".
3. On the end of the target path, add "/prefetch:1" (without the quotes). Observe a space between them.
4. Click "Apply" and "OK" or simply click "OK".
Run your application now, and see for yourself. :)
Note:
You may not notice any difference to some stuffs for the following reasons;
- Application's data already included in the prefetch directory.
- Small or light weight application (trick not necessary).
Enjoy! :)
