Mac Finder is Slow or Not Responding?

They told me that the preferences files associated with the Finder app could corrupt or break causing Mac Finder to misbehave


I don't undestand. If its usable why is too slow??? how to fix?

I would first Boot into Recovery (Command R) and from the dropdown menu: Utilities>  Disk Utility> run the First Aid on your Macintosh HD. If errors are found and repaired, run again until no errors reported.


Recovery http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718



After that To get a good look at your System config. for conflicts or issues, you can run this utility http://etrecheck.com

If you need help interpreting the report you can post it here in its entirety in the "Additional Text" box in the toolbar below.
