 Often while using the computer we need to copy or transfer a file from one place to another on the hard disk, whether transferring a file from Partition "D" to Partition "C" on the desktop, or from the flash drive to the hard drive. When you want to, you have to select the file and right click to get the option "Copy" for copying and "Cut" for transfer, select the appropriate option and then go to the folder you want to add it to. The problem with this method is that it is difficult when it comes to copying or moving multiple files from different folders, so you will find that it is impractical and wastes a lot of time. In this case, the "Send to" option is usually used to make the command smooth and fast, as you specify the location from the submenu and a shortcut to the specified files is created immediately in the specified location. But the shortcuts don't always work, as the original copy must be stored on the same hard d...

What is the "PerfLogs" folder in Windows ... Should it be deleted?

بواسطة Abd Al Rahman Al Tell -

 The Windows system contains many mysterious folders and files related to the operating system that the system often relies on to perform a function, and because some may be ignorant of the function of those files or folders, therefore, they may delete them without being concerned with what they may cause of potential harm to the system, and so that it does not happen. That is, through several previous topics in the Computer World Blog to clarify the nature of the work of folders such as $WinREAgent and ProgramData in addition to some files such as Desktop.ini and thumbs.db in order to clarify the importance of each of them to the system, and today in this article we will highlight a new folder of folders The Windows system, which is the "PerfLogs" folder, which we will learn together about its importance and also whether it should be deleted or not.


What is the "PerfLogs" folder?

The "PerfLogs" folder is one of the operating system folders, and you will often find it inside the Windows installation section, along with the "Windows", "Users" and "Program files" folders. The folder began to be used on Windows systems from the version of Windows Vista until the latest version of Windows 10.

The folder "PerfLogs" was named with this name as an abbreviation for "Performance Log" or literally translating "Performance Log" as this folder is a log inside which all problems related to the performance of the operating system and details of errors that occurred in the system are saved through detailed reports used by the system. About the details of any problem you encounter while using the computer.



In order to be able to access the folder, open it, and browse what is inside, you must have the powers of the administrator, as the folder, as we said previously, is created automatically through the system, and therefore access to it is blocked by any user with normal system powers, while only the user with the powers of the administrator or "Administrator" is allowed to access. Of the folder so that the folder content is not tampered with.


Often if you installed the operating system recently, or you did not encounter problems using your computer or frequent system errors, then when you browse the "PerfLogs" folder, you will find that it is completely empty and does not contain any files or sub-folders inside it.

Can the folder be deleted?

Of course, you can delete the folder if you want to and this will not affect the system booting, but it is preferable not to do this so that the system can analyze the performance of your computer and show solutions to some future problems, and the folder will often contain some reports in the form of small text files that will not Absolutely a problem in terms of storage space.

Thus, if you delete the folder, you will not find a big difference at the level of storage space. Also, if you permanently delete the file from the computer, it will often be created again automatically by the system, and after restarting the computer again and entering the operating system installation path, you will find the folder there again.

 Windows 10 is designed to work on personal computers, which usually have an unlimited Internet connection, allowing the download and upload tasks to be performed as desired without being asked. However, Windows 10 contains a useful feature called "Metered connection" that helps reduce data usage, and this is necessary for some types of connections. Microsoft knows that not all Windows 10 users are connected to the unlimited internet, as there are those who connect to limited capacity packages, portable hotspots, or via a phone server, and anything else. Therefore, it was necessary to provide a feature that would make the system realize that you are connected to the limited internet and thus reduce data usage. This was an initial definition of the feature, so let me tell you on this topic how exactly it works, when and how to activate it. As we indicated, when you activate the Metered connection feature, Windows 10 will know that you are on a limited connection and then take ...
