morning believe me while my coffee wrapper will damage to your system no more tech money no more over lush no more all my apology horses odds are pretty good that you've seen a message like that if you've ever tried to delete a file that windows wants to cling to like you cling to that picture of your ex especially if said file is inside the system32 folder but what exactly about it is so gosh darn important that makes windows as cagey and nervous as an initech employee during a performance review and why do internet trolls advise deleting it let's start with the first bit many of the files inside system 32 take the form of dynamic link libraries or dll's these files contain code and data that can be accessed and shared by many programs including windows itself the DLL is inside the system32 folder enable functionality from control panel options to error checking system updates streaming media support encryption services audio and video playback DirectX rendering and even the Windows interface itself I mean it wouldn't be very easy to use Windows if you couldn't even freakin see what you were doing system32 also includes most of your drivers which you can learn more about up here as well as elements of the Windows kernel the fundamental code that interfaces Windows with your hardware allowing it to well work what that means is that many of these files simply can't be deleted after you boot into Windows since they've already been loaded into memory but even deleting other system32 files will probably end up breaking a number of obvious things on your system and result in your computer refusing to boot the next time you try to turn it on meaning you'll end up having to run some system recovery of some sort to have any chance of getting it back up and running without a full reformat so this all sounds like stuff you obviously wouldn't want to get rid of so why is anyone trying to do it well not surprisingly many non computer savvy folks have no idea what the system 32 folder is at all leading to some enterprising trolls spreading a meme that deleting system 32 will make your you to run twice as fast this particular piece of memory has been making its rounds on the internet since at least the early 2000s but the way it's usually presented still fools many computer novices typically there will be a bit of copypasta describing system32 as a folder that Microsoft uses to intentionally hobble your computer's performance as part of some conspiracy to get you to go by PC tune-up software or something or even claiming the system32 is just straight-up malware then using step-by-step instructions that are designed to look like more credible system tuning tips directing users to enter one or two lines on a command prompt to delete the folder to be clear there are many people on the web that offer honest advice about how to speed up a slow computer but in this particular case it's a giant hoax so the moral the story is don't delete system32 and don't take computer maintenance advice from people that list master of mammalogy on their resumes cut out their VPN lets you tunnel to up to 20 different countries and make it seem like your connection is coming from that country they've easy-to-use apps for iOS Android PC and Mac and they also have a Chrome extension just choose the country in the app turn tile bear on and watch as your bear tunnels your internet connection to your new location when you turn total bear on two main things happen your connection gets encrypted with AES 256-bit encryption and your public IP address gets switched so you can show up as if you're in that different country tunnel very lets you bypass all the annoying details that typically come with using a VPN for personal use there's no need to mess around with port configurations or DNS or any other router settings if you're not comfortable with that tonal Bayer handles all of that in the background they have a top rated security privacy and do not log any user activity you can try out some of our VPN with 500 megabytes of free data and with no credit card required today and if you choose to get a year of unlimited data you can save 10% by going to tunnel bear comm slash Linus alright guys thanks for watching if you liked it like if you disliked it dislike it and don't forget don't go around deleting a whole bunch of random stuff this can happen it's kind of weird having like a torso and shins so if you want to avoid that just don't delete a whole bunch of different stuffs and that will that will help you out on the journey of not having that happen if you guys want to see other silly things go to channel super fun other than that I'll see you next time
