| When referring to computers, housekeeping is a
term used to describe the optimization of a hard disk drive.
Housekeeping commonly involves removing old or unused files,
removing programs no longer being used, backing up data, and/or
running disk utilities such as a scandisk, defrag, or a virus scan.
Housekeeping is meant as a way to help keep the computer organized
and running properly and should be performed at least once a year.
