It is, unfortunately, common for Windows PC’s to develop stability problems and diminished performance over time. This may be shown by crashes, often with seemingly bizarre error messages, slow startup, long times to load programs, and other problems.

 

This deterioration in performance, which has a many possible causes, can be avoided by scrupulous maintenance, but is often difficult for non-technical users. Some people actually recommend periodically reinstalling Windows and all software. This is a poor solution and rarely appropriate.

 

The GTS PC Tune-up is a thorough solution, going far beyond the simple disk check and defragmentation routine that some other vendors call by similar terms. We use top quality specialized tools. It includes:

 

Security Checkup

A thorough test and repair for Viruses, Trojans, and Spyware. 

 

Windows Updates

especially Microsoft important updates and service packs.

These are often extremely important and we find many Windows users do not process these frequent releases.

 

Update hardware drivers where applicable

 

Through Hard Disk clean up

This includes removal of the temporary files that accumulate over time (many of which are not removed by built in Windows utilities). Also, we find that some new or relatively inexperienced computer users have misplaced many document files around the hard disk, which we can help you organize.

 

Remove unneeded background programs and processes

There are often many programs/processes loading automatically in Windows without you knowledge. These are sometimes there from the original vendor installation, left by programs you thought you uninstalled, or were unnecessarily installed with other software for marketing purposes.. These drain precious resources and may create security breaches.

 

Clean up/Repair Broken Shortcuts (often left behind by uninstalled software).

 

Check and Defragment Hard Disk(s)

This is something you should do regularly. Sometimes this requires special action to run due to problems with Virus scanners or other programs interfering.
