Maintaining a smooth running system isn’t that tricky. One trick is to not bog down your computer with lots of files. The more free space, the better. I don’t keep any files on my system. I back everything up to both an external hard drive, and the cloud. Cloud space isn’t as bad as some believe it to be. Microsoft OneDrive is a great option. It’s secure, and affordable.

We all run into snags from time to time, especially with our PC systems. The idea is not to panic, and assume the worst with what’s going on. Before you call in the pc system repair guy, you might want to try Windows’ handy troubleshooters. There is virtually a troubleshooter for every problem. Below is how to access them.

1. For Windows 10 users, open settings menu.
2. Click on Update & Security
3. In the left pane, click on Troubleshoot.
