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.

Caulfield VIC, Australia

Message to the Freelancer IT Technician, If unable to fix Windows 10 Profile issues (as set out in the Title), to download latest backup from Pcloud and install on one of our spare, separate, fully functional workstations. Looking to establish a long-term relationship with lot of continuous work to come, at an hourly rate as close to what we are currently paying, as our IT guy is no longer working as an IT tech. In the next step we have quoted an hourly rate of $55 per hour (inclusive of GST and billed in a minimum of h30 minute increments) x 2 hours (the expected duration to fix the current issue), however if it takes longer we will be happy to pay the extra. I look forward to your quote. Kind Regards, Alan - Due date: Needs to be done on Tuesday, 19 December 2023

Hi, I have a RainBird LNK Wi-Fi controller to manage my garden irrigation The Wi-Fi dongle connects to my phone when I am in Wi-Fi range… The system should however also support being able to operate remotely as well (E.g. when I am out of the house and outside Wi-Fi Reach using cellular data) For some reason I can’t connect to my system remotely… i’m wondering whether there might be some firewall issue or other ?

The next availability they have to send a technician is JULY, this is just too long for me to wait. Are there any technicians or person with NBN installation experience that can help me out?
