What do troubleshooting services include?

You likely spend a huge chunk of your day in front of a computer. Lags and glitches in your device can derail your plans for the day and stifle productivity. It's a good thing that finding computer troubleshooting near you is easy with Airtasker.

If you're wondering what you can have done under computer troubleshooting, here are a few examples:

Software cleanup

Most of the time, your computer slowing down is caused by too many software programs running simultaneously. You can have too many browsers open for work, research, and even video streaming. You may also have editing programs, folders, and messaging platforms open. What if none of these is the problem?

 

A troubleshooting specialist can help check if your software programs or app are running in the background, draining your battery and eating up your RAM. Some program installers, especially those from notable developers, may also have incompatibility with your device or other programs. 

It's also possible that a virus or malware is installed from a sketchy source. You can avoid this by ensuring that you download only from legitimate websites hosted by companies you trust.

 

Device inspection

Aside from checking your RAM, there could be physical manifestations of why your device is slowing down. Much like any appliance in need of repair, gadgets also overheat, indicating a faulty battery.

 

Another thing to look out for are signs of moisture or mold, which could happen during sudden temperature changes or when you often drink or eat in front of your computer or laptop. Improper electrical wiring could also be a possible culprit, including accidentally pulling the plug while you work or kicking the wires and causing the computer to shut down abruptly.

 

Repair and support

Aside from troubleshooting, computer technicians can also help you identify the best solution for you. Maybe a quick fix and new antivirus software are all you need. If your device is under warranty, they can also point you to the nearest service center. Lastly, if it's beyond repair, Taskers can help you assemble a PC that fits your lifestyle and needs. Plus, the new setup can avoid the causes that slowed down or damaged your computer in the first place.

Lawson ACT, Australia

27th Jan 2022

I live in a multi-story townhouse (NBN Box and Modem in garage on ground floor) and have had issues with my WiFi (dropping out all the time/weak signal). I have nbnâ„¢ Fibre to the Premises (FTTP) and my service provider (TPG) says everything looks fine from their end when I have called to see what is going on. My plan is NBN Broadband Unlimited super fast and usually only one person uses the connection, occasionally two people with usually 4 devices and a maximum of 6 at any time. Im looking for advice on how I can improve my WiFi and am open to purchasing a better modem or WiFi extenders. Experience with both PC (work laptop) and Mac/iPhone/Apple TV would be helpful when troubleshooting. I may need two visits - one to assess and one to help set-up any new equipment purchases. - Due date: Flexible
