Virus Removal & PC Optimization in Algés

About our service in Algés

In a shop or a small office, a computer that has stopped means invoices unissued and customers waiting. The first thing we do on arriving at a business in central Algés or Miraflores is work out whether the problem lies in the billing program, the operating system, the internet connection or the hardware. We test that chain in order rather than reinstalling blindly — reinstalling a billing program without first saving the database is the quickest way to turn a breakdown into an accounting disaster. We always copy the database and the certificates before touching anything, and we check that the copy actually opens. The second theme is the one that frightens business owners most: the program that encrypts the files and demands payment. We see it arrive through email attachments dressed up as invoices and through badly configured remote access, left open for the accountant or for a previous technician. We close those doors, tighten the permissions, switch on two-step verification where accounts are shared, and set up a backup to three destinations, one of them disconnected from the network — because a copy the infected computer can reach gets encrypted along with it. We explain the routine so that the owner can check on their own, every week, that the copy is happening. At home, in the older blocks by the river and up in Alto de Algés, the work is more conventional: systems clogged with years of accumulated programs, advertising in the browser, slow startup, no disk space left and machines of some age that get their wind back with an SSD. We do the clean-up, sort out what launches with the system and leave photographs and documents copying automatically. In both cases, domestic and commercial, the rule is the same: data saved before anything is touched, and an explanation of what was changed before we leave.
