<<Previous Spyware/adware removal

Are you tired of system lockups, crashes, program problems? These problems are often solved by installing updates to the software installed on your computer. Software manufacturers release updates to their software to fix bugs, correct serious security risks and to add features to the program. While these updates are often free to download, keeping track of what to install and when to install can be a bewildering and time consuming process. In an office environment, with multiple workstations and a wide mix of different computers, the complexity of tracking this can be overwhelming. Instead of wasting your precious time trying to keep your computer up to date, let AWCconsulting maintain your computer for you. This allows you to spend your time doing what you do best, doing your job.

Regular updates to the operating system, drivers and applications are critical to keeping your computer running smoothly. 

Highlights of the available system updates include:

  • Critical updates. Critical updates deal with problems that seriously affect the stability or security of your system. For example, older versions of Microsoft Outlook are extremely susceptible to external attacks that potentially allow an external user to damage or even erase data on your computer. Critical updates should be installed promptly to remove the security risk presented by the bug.
  • Operating system updates. The operating system of your computer (for example, Windows XP) is updated over time to correct problems with the operating system.
  • Application updates. Major updates are released for applications such as Microsoft Word. For example, there are major updates for Microsoft Office XP to deal with severe security issue.
  • Hardware driver updates. The equipment hooked up to your computer also needs to be updated.
  • Remote system testing and diagnostics. During regular maintenance, diagnostic software is run to check for common errors in your system configuration.
