No worries, Arkadash your english is fine 
As for the prefetch folder, you should leave it alone
As you experienced deleting it can hurt the performance.
What is the prefetch folder?
Now it has to build up again over time.

1) Deleting Prefetch data may increase boot time slightly, but only the next time you boot Windows. Each subsequent boot should proceed normally, since the prefetch data will already be present for the programs Windows loads when it boots.
2) Take a look at the startup tab items in Msconfig. Uncheck anything non-essential. You can research on this or ask here. I generally keep only the AV, touchpad and my password manager checked. Sticky notes also if you use them.
3) You can use Soluto to tell you what programs are consuming boot time.

Bill2- I tried Soluto on your recommendation, but I discovered that it made 16 attempts to call up to the to the Internet to 74.86.61.161 and 208.93.137.60 during its boot time analysis and it left me wondering why Soluto needs to contact home in order to do analyze the programs that boot on my computer?

The initial analysis carried out by soluto requires internet access, to gather information about the apps it detected during start-up. After a full synchronization with the computer is done Soluto can work offline, until a new application is discovered in one of the boots, in which case another synchronization is required.

From what I read in an article by Ed Botts here, Soluto has to check the data it collects agains a database it calls the PC Genome. Makes sense. Think I'll give it a try too.
Thanks Bill2
