Speed Up Windows 7 - Remove RDC to improve Windows 7 Network

                              




                               Network is a major factor in computing. Windows 7 computers will be slow in accessing shares on old MS Windows servers and non MS Operating systems including Sun and Linux. Accessing data and transferring data over network are still problem in this case. Resolving DNS requests internally (LAN or WAN) and externally (Internet) also could be slow in Windows 7.

                                Remote Differential Compression (RDC) allows data to be synchronized with a remote source using compression techniques to minimize the amount of data sent across the network.

Method 2:


                                This feature was introduced with Windows Vista to transfer data over network in compressed format. The same RDC feature continued in Windows 7 also. Since most of the old operating systems came before vista do not support this RDC feature, it slows down network data transfer in windows 7. You can remove this RDC (Remote Differential Compression) in windows 7 by visiting control panel and programs and features. Click on ‘Turn Windows features on or off’, as shown below.


Step 1: Go to Control Panel



Step 2: Click on Programs

Step 3: Now select Turn Windows Features on or off



Step 4: Now Windows Features window will open. Uncheck Remote Differential Compression.



Step 5: Click OK

Doesn't this going to slow down the data transfer if the system has to compress the data when to send and decompress when to receive the data?

With our latest processors and loads of ram i dont see a lot of difference in the performance of the system itself due to this technology as most of the newer processors are multi threading capable.

Digeus I recommend to use this software when there are problems with windows system. I also use Windsty Tune Up Suite. It prevents computer problems.
