Hello and welcome.
First I would run a full updated scan using your Anti-Virus..
Download and run a full scan using malwarebytes here is the link, and use the free version. Malwarebytes : Free anti-malware, anti-virus and spyware removal download
It this comes back clean then I would defrag, Disk cleanup, uninstall anything you really don't use, download CCleaner and use it about once every 2 months BUT do not use the registry cleaner this is where if you don't know what your doing you can cause a lot of problems.
