Windows uses many different processes and service to improve the experience and to for serving various needs related to its stability, security etc. We also install third party software to customize our choice and needs. Most if not all such software runs some background service all the time for its stability. Of course, with all such services and processes running Windows resources gets consumed and the free resources may not be sufficient for another resource intensive job like gaming, photoshopping etc. While it is possible to manually scroll to each processes and services and close the unnecessary ones and turn those on after the work is finished, its not the most convenient option. BlueSprig have released a software JetBoost to take care of such needs. According to the developer,
