How to Disable Superfetch on Windows 10

Superfetch is a feature in Windows 10 that helps your system perform faster by managing random access memory (RAM) and caching frequently used applications. This feature preloads the data that is likely to be accessed in the future, making it easier to access that information. However, sometimes, a user might experience lag or delay due to the Superfetch’s prefetching mechanism. In such cases, disabling Superfetch might help in resolving the issue.

The following steps can be followed to disable Superfetch on Windows 10:

Step 1: Open the Run Dialog Box by pressing the Windows Key + R.

Step 2: Type “services.msc” in the Run Dialog Box and press enter. The Services window will open.

Step 3: In the Services window, scroll down and find the Superfetch service.

Step 4: Right-click on the Superfetch service and select Properties.

Step 5: In the Properties window, click on the Stop button to stop the Superfetch service.

Step 6: In the Startup type drop-down menu, select Disabled and then click on Apply and OK button.

Step 7: Restart your computer.

Once Superfetch is disabled, your system will no longer prefetch frequently used applications or manage RAM in the background. This may result in a slight decrease in performance, especially when opening new applications. However, if you experience lag or delay due to Superfetch, disabling it can help in resolving the issue.

In conclusion, disabling Superfetch on Windows 10 can help in resolving the lag or delay issues that you might be experiencing on your system. By following the above-mentioned steps, you can easily disable Superfetch and improve the performance of your system

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
