hi joeman
Bro do i need a antivirus in android 10 plz tell bro
@@aringiri1946 Not likely unless you have your phone rooted because when your phone is rooted then giving root access to a virus can actually cause problems while other ones are less likely and then is the fact that android has way less viruses made for it than you would expect.
@@vrajeshpc thanks bro
You forgot 'Disabling Startup apps' ..the one thing you always point out whenever you make a video related to computers.
Heart this comment
Yes. Some shit for some stupid reason launches on startup (for some reason steam is one of them) and slows down the computer for 30 seconds just after boot.
He didn't see this?!
@@SwagLordOP when I go into task manager, it says there are no running apps. When I open an app, it shows the app, but not "startup tab"
@@katherine-oh3rt If you see 'More details' at the bottom click it and you should see Start-up there. Just a tip when you do this: *don't disable anything you don't know about.* you probably knew that already.
I will definitely comeback to this video after 3 years when I'm having the source to buy it
Same
You already know
You can look used depending on what you want, some parts basically don't age, I have some old xeon from 2008 and it still easily runs anything without a sweat at like 100 fps(unless the gpu holds it back). It was also dirt cheap.
@@tilburg8683 Thanks buddy for ur reply...btw..your game play videos are nice☺️
you can use old used parts, just always check the reviews to make sure it’s not faulty.
Also, once you have all your programs installed and desktop customized to your liking, create a FULL SYSTEM DISK IMAGE BACKUP. I can't stress enough how important this is! Then, if your computer gets a virus or messed up, you can restore back to this point. It will save you the hell of reinstalling the OS and having to reinstall your programs. If you do ever need to restore, be sure to run updates on everything.

If I have 300 gb worth of stuff on the drive, do i need 300gb of backup space?
@@Manimanocas It compresses your files, but it's always a good idea to use a backup drive that's larger. Over time, you're likely to install more programs as well as they will get larger with updates. This will avoid any "not enough space" problems down the line when you backup again :)
I mean, Windows Defender is good enough 99% of the time. Of course, having extra protection isn't a bad thing, but I don't think it's a necessity unless you have really important files on your computer or something.
Totally agree.
Or if a company give ls ya money and says "hey advertise for us for x amount of dollars"
Yess just bloatware it can take a toll on older hardware
common sense is the best antivirus
agreed. all this is over cautious money grabbing. joe blows like us arent under any scopes lol
I just bought my first PC today, i am so excited. It arrives on Tuesday and this was so nice to watch, thank you!
5:05 Item Check boxes are good for those of you who like do delete, select, or anything like that. It will give you check boxes in both file explorer and Control panel (Yes they share the same bar as each other because they are linked.) I have check boxes for my pc and it is really nice so yea.
what does it do?
oh i found it thanks
The serial numbers tip is really good. I can definitely recommend doing this.
Ditch the 3rd party antivirus because Windows Security is good enough, and add a professional backup software like Macrium Reflect Free, that can backup all specified partitions into an Image file and has a schedule backup feature.
Don't disable 3rd part security, windows defender isn't good enough
@@anonymouscyborg5610 Why isn't it good enough? You say it doesn't detect all viruses? Do you have any sources to back that claim up?
@@anonymouscyborg5610 yes it is
Unless your clicking on everysingle online ad you can ever find you won't get a virus with it
@@cyangalaxy yes, i got viruses from just general browsing on the internet. I got a 3rd party protection and no issues since. your perosnal experinance isnt the same aas everyone else.
@@Athyxion Stop browsing on dodgy sites.
In the power setting you should have mentioned that you can enable a hidden ultra performance mode with a cmd command.

Thank you Joe, I am building my pc in a few weeks
Cant relate coz I’m broke :((((
Hey man, did you built it?
Diamond-Heart21 yea
Disabling startup apps is also something, I used to play and epic games would always open on startup. It’s so annoying
I’m ordering a new PC with a 4070 ti, and as someone who has lived with an Xbox for years, since Ghost Recon when I was 10, I can say that I’m ecstatic to enjoy my favorite games in a resolution that feels unreal to me, and this video helps people like me to understand what I’m looking for from the get go (the last computer I played on was my dads and we played doom and quake on it, so 98)
good for you
Omg I was looking for a way to get back an old version of a document, thank you so much
I have a custom built Ryzen Desktop PC, so it has more options and thus I have my Power Setting set to "AMD Ryzen High Performance" setting and not the recommended Balance setting.
Great stuff though man. You help me tune things up and reduce unnecessary stuff running and slowing things down.
Check what hardware is inside and download all the drivers for them.
Now FORMAT your hard drive and reinstall windows. (good to get rid of a lot of bloatware)
Now you can do what Thio is telling you.
Making an OFFLINE account (not synced with Microsoft) is easy to do - When installing windows UNPLUG your internet cable from the PC.
Now install windows and do not plug the cable back in until the install has been completed.
What a perfect timing. I was just about to get a new one
5:57 there is a mode called "ultra performance" or something like that, it just lowers your hardware latency, you can search how to do it online
5:42 "VIRUS LOL..exe" i died laughing haha XD
5:26 *"Not Secret file.txt" and "Secret File.txt"* :)
Quite a few years ago I was downloading from Kazaa (I know, I just dated myself.) I downloaded what I thought was a Star Wars movie and when it showed up it was labeled "LOL" I stupidly clicked on it and it suddenly showed it was deleting the entire OS files. Luckily it was a joke file and it wasn't really deleting the OS but it scared the shit out of me.

Bruh let me introduce you to the Windows 7 simps
Hey f u buddy
Let me introduce you to Windows 11.
The example of saving the S/N for warranty repairs made me laugh.
My PC's warranty expired in 2010!
Uninstall Bloatware- check ✔
Update Drivers- check ✔
Get A Good Antivirus- that's impossible, and I want something that isn't a load in my wallet.
bitdefender antivirus plus is good Even Kaspersky Anti-Virus
A reliable source of just the right info at all times, except when it explicitly, intentionally, isn't. Thanks.
I returned to this channel expecting to find a tutorial on how to turn my ps4 into the new ps5 but instead I found a video that’s actually useful. Interesting
This guy is like, watching me? Whenever I'm about to buy something this guy coincidentally drops a video about it!
Good info. What about creating a recovery image of some sort? For yearly windows re-installs? Best to wipe everything and refresh the registry every year right? Amazing how many ppl end up not using the hardware's full design life and buying new stuff becasue of software issues like registry corruption etc...
I knew all of these besides the serial code tips...that's pretty clever.
I just laugh how thiojoe says cereal number.
I laughed at how he said executable
In my experience with power plans, power saver helps with overheating laptops due to reduced clock speed
When people say BTS I say Bitdefender Total Security xD
Kpop stans: *angry noises*
Thank you so much for this video. I have just bought a new Laptop and will be setting it up tomorrow. This video couldn't have come at a better time. :)
Now I have a question. How much energy can the power saving mode really save? I'm relating to the environment. I think that this depends more of the hardware actually. But I guess it's good to know.
Did you get an answer?
@@Thormosphere nah but standby mode actually turns off almost all of the components. The only thing that is powered is the RAM (storing your OS session) and maybe the CPU for receiving a wake-up signal, depending on setting also mouse and keyboard for wake-up.
Imo following insight is for an active use of the computer and becomes quite significant when we consider the massive amount of personal computers (clients, which don't have to run at max all the time).
Assumably the clock speed of CPU and GPU (using special software) are the main determining factors when it comes to required power input. But it also controls standby timeout, display on time, USB save mode and other stuff.
You could definitely go ahead and disable/close unnecessary or power hungry apps to reduce the needed processor power.
Also, I think it helps to set your network card output limit to the next step above your internet speed to save some power.
Power saving mode CPU clock can be overridden by BIOS settings, at least for AMD CPUs. For example you have dynamic clock speed enabled in the BIOS, then the Windows power mode setting might not have any effect.
You have to check how your clock works on different power modes, you can test it with different min values. If it doesn't act the way you set it up to, then changing the BIOS power mode is an option. Usually tho, by default it should be set to automatic frequency change.
GPU also eats a lot of energy when running at full power.
Hard drives nowadays (HDD and SSD) require low amount of electrical power.
Monitor power heavily depends on energy class and brightness.
That being said, it's relatively easy to help the environment to recover a bit by managing our devices' electrical consumption.
I buy a 1 TB harddrive to backup! Thanks for tips!!
DONT use antivirus on windows 10. Just keep your system and browser updated.
Why not?
@@sunset1289 slows down pc but extra protection i would say it's worth it
I would add create a standard user account and use THAT instead of the Administrator account that Windows comes with. That way if you DO get hit with a virus that tries to install something it will have to ask for your Administrator password and you can stop it from installing that way.
Great video! I plan to build my own PC this year, so I'll definitely try to do all these things when I do!
have you built your pc yet? :)
@@jazcena same question, if you (@Gwen Michigander) have finished it, what are the specifications!? :)
I was not even searching for this, I was looking for what was causing my pc to run super laggy and slow & it’s a 2 year old desktop came across this guy’s channel and problem solved!
I saw one of ThioJoe’s video a few years ago as a kid and didn’t realize the video was satire, so now every time is see his video in my recommended i’m traumatized.
thank you man!
i just got my first PC for gaming and this video really helped, now i can push this 4070 ti and intell I9 14900k to its limits.
Thanks for amazing videos ThioJoe!!!!!
Speaking of Serial Number, I always remove them from the bottom and put it next to the OEM logo so that they can see it right away (warranty ended but it's still important though)
Good advice get a antivirus this way your pc get's slower :D
Yeah, there is one built into Windows
You don't need the others
I’m finally buying a computer after 2 long years of working hard, I’m able to get a mediocre laptop. I’m so excited!
Thats cool!
Me too windows 10 is good
@romeohio 2006 you ew yourself your windows7 is nothing to me
@@WhirlwindQuest Thanks!!!!
Windows 10 da best
I remember couple years back when I use to fall for your prank videos use to actually get mad now I'm happy your making it up with videos like this
Windows 10 to windows 7:
Upgrade
Windows 7 to windows 10: downgrade
I Thought It Was Windows 10 To XP: Upgrade.
I agree with this statement 👍
Mhm
@sundaran 1122 That's just crazy talk 😉
the next thing you need to do is to uninstall windows and install linux mint
Ask the shirt and tie guy if I can have that laptop! Thanks for the good to know info! 🤓
I believe that windows comes with good enough protection build in, and any other av or firewall software is unnecessary.
yeah it kind of is tbh
Im getting a pc in 2 days and this really helped!😁
Got it
Someone like my comment so i don't forget when i get my pc
Guys can't believe I got my pc this fast
PLEASE READ: You do not need an anti-virus unless you have important files, and then make sure it is not a free version. Windows defender is great these days, and does not slow down your computer nor does it cost anything. Of course, being a paid sponsor I don't blame him for trying to sell it to you. I also think it's ironic that the next tip is to turn off Windows advertisements..
This video was uploaded 21 minutes ago yet thio Joe's comment is 4 days old
Members-only early access
convenient for you to upload this on black friday
I like your content a whole lot, but I just wanted to say a couple things.
I work in IT Security and have for over 10 years. Unless you are running a business and are going to be targeted specifically, the normal Windows Defender that comes pre-installed for free is plenty for most home users. Most anti virus software is near enough to spyware, I wouldn't want it on any computer anyway.
Also
ex-a-cute-able, not exec-ute-Able, just something to consider.
he said that just for the ad
Getting my first pc on Christmas so this will be very helpful
I'm on AMD Ryzen™ High Performance Mods
You made me remember that my potato PC (laptop) is on power saving mode that's why I wasn't able to open multiple windows without performance dips thank god or I wouldn't have ever noticed that.
"save your cereal number"
serial
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family Thio Joe
Being a linux user, I don't need to worry about any of that ! :P
in my opinion windwos defender is really just the best security defender for windows and its free
Bit defender will delete programs I use. NO!
I just bought it now and started watching his video from my new pc
Best thing to do: Install Linux.
Why?
@@topshotta45k__25 Why not?
@@cyberp0et I mean like what is that ?
@@topshotta45k__25 You mean what is Linux? You can find out on a search engine.
It is free software (like in ”freedom”) :)
you should also set a new defalt web browser
Had to stop watching when you recommend people get antiviruses
Lol right?
When buying a new computer (both in person and online), it helps to wipe clean the hard drive and install a fresh copy of Windows 10. Not just because of bloatware, but also other things the pervious owner put onto it.
When you get a computer, install linux
I CAN'T BELIEVE IS NOT WINDOWS
Thanks bro for this vid getting my Pc delivered tonight
I’m getting one tomorrow so that’s why I’m here!
tHiOoOoOoOo😘
Thio! Awesome to see real tech videos. I remember formatting my Xbox 360 after watching your video on “how to upgrade it to the xbox one” lol.. not my best memory.
Ohh I was actually searching for new pcs and this notification popped up
great video just got a new mac last week glad i watched this
I think this is the first legit Thio Joe video I've ever seen
But i have hundreds of them and my channel is 100% legit now 🤔
@@ThioJoe Hey, thanks for taking the time to reply. I've always enjoyed your videos, I've been watching your stuff for several years now and I really enjoyed the satire videos.
Trust me he is the 2nd most legit Windows tech advisor u can see on youtube...(1st is linus tech tips btw)
Not got one... But just watching because of you.
GUYS MEGA IMPORTANT TIP
when you get a new computer MAKE SURE to press the power button so it works
i like this
You missed checking your firewall is up first.
Gotta love this guy...He knows his stuff...
Im getting a new desktop setup. But thanks for the tips though. But its also best to clear cache after setup. It can make it more faster because the setup bloats the system a bit when it comes to performance like ram cpu and gpu
8:21 great idea. And Windows product key if applicable, because that wears off a lot of the time.
I'am a beginner and all of the tips is super helpful😀😀💗💗
Just for ur info...
if you get a new pc the most important thing u must do is update drivers. Thats pretty much all you gotta do and if your using ur pc as a gaming pc put it to high performance not balanced or power save to get the most performance out of ur pc
1. Update drivers/GPU
2. select pc to High performance/for gaming etc...
these u must do. nothing else matters as much.
This is about getting everything for it to work.
Tip:the best power plan is actually ultimate, it doesn't actually show up where the other power plans are so i would suggest looking for a yt tutorial.
@GAMING With SAKSHAM my pc's crap and I've got it
The thing about bitdefender is that there's an issue with it. On some devices, once you install it, it will say that it needs to restart, and once you restart, it keeps restarting over and over again. The way to fix this is to:
1) disconnect from wifi and turn on airoplane mode (this will stop it from restarting)
2) go to the control panel and uninstall any bitdefender app that's in there
and all should be good.
Yesss!! New video! I miss you thiojoe! 🙂
Hey Joe, this isn’t a problem but it’s a feature I wish I had (I am running windows 10 Pro). When I boot the computer up, there are certain things that slow it down because they are “in the startup” folder. Point is I WANT them to be in the startup folder. (I have already taken out the things that I don’t want to be in there. So that’s not the issue.)The issue is I would like to have (e.g.) a little box appear (like “READY”) on the screen when the computer is really ENTIRELY booted up. The reason is that if you go to use the computer before it’s totally up (When it appears to be!!) things aren’t always ready to work as well yet.
thank you so much ive been needing a video like this
Using Bitdefender for the second year, woot, woot.
