By 'make the system faster', do you mean the computer itself or its internet speed?

What Windows Operating System is this?

I wrote this guide here:

What does 'sol'n' mean? ???

Hard Drive is 50% free, that is all right.

All right, as long as you have permission to speed up the computer.
 I guess CCleaner can be substituted by Disk Cleanup.

I still don't understand what you mean by the script?

My changes are completely reversible (can be undone)

Disk cleenup,
Removal of Temp files & cookies

This process I have to run at login (startup) or logoff stage

which will help me to maintain unnecessary files to remove at all the time

( i mean to say I can't visit regularly for this type of prob, I have to make it run for alternate days or regular)

Honestly....I am confused. ???

All I know that, if you don't want to download anything, you can use Disk Cleenup and Disk Defragmenter and see if there is any improvement.
