About our service in Algueirão-Mem Martins
A machine shared across generations ages differently from a personal computer. Everybody installs something, everybody downloads files, and after two years the system holds programs nobody recognises, browser extensions that change the home page, and a downloads folder with thousands of items in it. Most of the infections we find in Mem Martins, Serra das Minas or Tapada das Mercês get in the same way: hunting for games or modified versions of paid software, on sites that bundle malware with whatever you meant to install. We explain this without drama and with examples, because prevention here is worth more than any clean-up. The work starts with the data. We copy the school work, the photographs and the documents onto an external drive before touching the system. Then we clear the infection, remove unwanted programs and extensions, and organise the computer by user: one administrator account for an adult and limited accounts for everybody else, which stops installations happening without approval and keeps each person's files apart. Where there are younger children, we set usage limits and content filtering, at whatever level the family asks for and no further. The last part is making sure the machine reaches the next school year. We free up disk space, take out whatever starts for no reason, update the system and check the temperature under heavy use, because these computers spend hours playing video. Where the vents are packed with dust, we open it up and clean the inside before doing anything else. If it is an older machine with a mechanical disk, we show what difference an SSD makes, especially when three people use it through the day. We leave an automatic copy of the school work configured and explained to the students themselves, since they are the ones who lose most when a file disappears the night before a deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about computer support in Algueirão-Mem Martins:
My children install games and the computer picks up viruses. How do I stop it?
With limited accounts, nothing installs without your approval. We set that up and show you where to look for games and software from official sources. Modified versions of paid programs are the main way in for the malware we see.
We lost a piece of school work. Can it be recovered?
Sometimes, if the file was deleted recently and the disk is still healthy. Do not write anything else to that machine and call us. If the disk is physically damaged there is no guaranteed recovery, and we would rather say so than build expectations.
How is the quote worked out?
It depends on the state of the machine and what is needed: cleaning the system, setting up accounts and controls or replacing a disk are distinct jobs. Describe the situation on WhatsApp and we give you a no-obligation quote.
