Remote Computer Fix To Solve Your Computer Problem

If your computer is running slowly, you do not have to buy a new computer or fix it yourself.
I offer a remote computer fix solution. I can remotely access your computer, (with your permission, of course) and fix your computer problem. Before I offer my tech assistance I will share my results and diagnosis of your computer. We will then discuss the best way to solve your computer problem and offer a solution that may include my tech assistance.

Remote Computer Fix

When it comes to getting your computer fixed, the last thing you want is to invite someone into your house. I mean, who wants to clean up the stray pizza boxes and laundry piles just to let a tech wizard tinker with your machine? Trust me, I get it. I do not want people coming to my place just to fix my computer either. For something like this, it is much easier—and far less awkward—to have it fixed remotely. This way, you can avoid the whole ordeal of putting on pants or pretending that your workspace is also not your dining table.

How to get me to remotely fix your computer

Now, to get your computer fixed remotely, first things first: make sure it is connected to the internet. Once you are connected, you will need a nifty program that allows remote control access. No, not the kind that changes TV channels from the couch, but the kind that lets a tech genius work their magic from miles away.

What Can Be Done Remotely

You may be surprised and what can be done without having to take your computer to the shop or struggle by trying to fix it yourself.
Here is a list of some of the things possible:

• Scan for viruses
• Windows update check
• Scan for outdated drivers
• Speed up your computer
• Clean up junk files
• Check for broken system files
• Repair Microsoft 365
• Fix email problems

Accessing Your computer

With this program in place, I will be able to access your computer—at your own risk, of course. Do not worry, I am not planning to snoop through your embarrassing browser history or your collection of cat memes. My mission is purely professional. Once I have access, I can set up the proper diagnostic programs to make sure your computer is running smoothly again. Think of it as a virtual house call, minus the hassle of tidying up or offering me a cup of coffee.

Programs That Make It Possible

For me to access your computer, you will need a remote-control program like TeamViewer. TeamViewer has a free version and is very functional but, I will not kid you, it is more complicated to use. I have used it for years and not any significant problems. Otherwise, you can use a video conferencing program like Teams or Zoom.

Microsoft Teams – Good News!

Microsoft offers Teams free even if you do not have Microsoft 365. I use it more frequently and have been surprised and how much I can do with it. With Teams, you can not only have me control your computer remotely, but you can also chat and audio call at the same time as I remotely fix your computer!

Do You Have Zoom? It Works, Too!

Many of us have Zoom on our computers. When you have it installed on your computer locally (not just the browser version) you can also share control.

What Does Not Work Well

Remember this remote computer help is for a desktop or laptop computer. It is not for your smart phone. They use an entirely different operating system, and the remote-control apps lack many of the functions of the standard computers.

Kick back and relax!

So, kick back, relax, and let the magic of remote technology take care of your computer’s woes. And hey, if all goes well, your computer will be up and running before you can say "remote access wizardry “and you will not even have to leave the comfort of your messy, pizza-box-filled fortress.
