Tech tips from ChezvousPC
If you pay for the anti-virus system you use for your Windows computer, then do be careful as most of the companies also enrol you in automatic renewal as part of the process. It is easy to turn this off if you can access your online account, but if you can’t it will automatically renew after a year and you may be charged up to 3 times as much. If you would prefer to avoid this, I have now reduced the price I charge for anti-virus to £20 - the same as cheap renewal quotes - I can also have a look at your computer at the same time.

If you are upgrading the OS on your Mac to Catalina you may also need to replace old versions of MS Office – if this is necessary you will get a warning about it in the upgrade process. This is a pain I realise, but it’s a natural consequence not some Machiavellian Microsoft Masterplan! I suggest buying Office 365 Personal or Home - Amazon offers great value or there are other versions available.
Windows 10 and Windows 8 do not operate like Windows 7, they go into a sort of sleep when shut down, so they can start up more quickly when you next need them. This means that if there are any problems when you shut down, they will be carried forward to the next start up. So if you feel that using your computer is like wading through treacle, then RESTART it. This is quite separate from the Shut Down and Start process and it really does fix most things!
New opening times: I realise it is a little difficult to see someone during the day when I am on calls, but I am always in the office from 08:00 – 09:30am. So if you need to drop something off or ask a quick question, then just pop by. Otherwise please email me so I can arrange to be here for you.
