Optimize and improve the performance of your Mac using your Norton device security product

Your Norton product monitors your system performance. If it detects an increase in system resources used by any program or process, it notifies you with performance alerts.

Using File Cleanup and Startup Manager, you can maximize the speed of your computer and improve overall performance.

File Cleanup

Junk files, including temporary, installation, or residual files, can impact computer performance. File Cleanup removes many types of junk files, and other clutters that can slow down your Mac.

Every time you browse or download files, your computer stores temporary files. Even though you don't need to keep them, they collect over time and can slow you down. The File Cleanup tool removes the clutter to make your computer run faster.

File Cleanup scans and lets you:

• Clean the cache for individual apps.

• Clean the residual files often left by uninstalled apps to free up disk space.

• Analyses and clean the junk-creating behavior of apps installed on your Mac.

• Clean the unwanted files in Trash.

• Clean log files.

Startup Manager

Many applications are configured to launch when you start your Mac. These include applications that you never use, rarely use, or never knew that you had. The more applications that launch when you start your Mac, the longer it takes. Norton Startup Manager lets you disable startup applications to get you up and running faster.

Startup Manager helps you to manage and control your startup applications to enhance the performance of your computer at startup.
