Virus Removal & PC Optimization in Estoril

About our service in Estoril

Changing computers is where most data is lost, far more than in any infection. The villas and older apartment blocks of Monte Estoril, São João and São Pedro do Estoril hold machines of many years' service, with email configured locally, image archives organised by hand and old programs nobody knows how to reinstall. We work with both machines running at the same time: we take stock of what is on the old one, copy everything to an external drive, transfer it to the new one, check file by file in the folders that matter, and only then set up the email, the accounts and the printer. The old machine leaves the house only once you confirm everything is in place, or it stays as a copy. When the old machine no longer starts, the job changes character. We take the disk out, connect it through an adapter and try to read the data from another computer. If the disk responds, the transfer usually goes well even with a broken system. Where there is physical damage — clicking, intermittent recognition, unreadable sectors — we say before we begin that there is no guarantee of recovery at all, explain what can be attempted and what the limits are of what we can do on site. We would rather have that uncomfortable conversation at the start than leave you disappointed at the end. The network here has a particular quirk: many of these houses have old electrical wiring with separate circuits per floor, so powerline adapters, which work well elsewhere, give weak or unstable results. We test before recommending. Where they do not work, we move to a network cable or a well-positioned mesh system. And before leaving we settle the security side: antivirus active on the new computer, passwords reviewed, two-step verification on the email, and an automatic copy running to an external drive or to the cloud, whichever makes sense for whoever will be using it.
