With the rise in percentage of calls for Windows App issues,
several other problems have declined in percentage this quarter.
Concerns with slow computer performance dropped most sharply and
are now at only 6.6%, though a slow computer remains the third most
significant tech support concern.
Viruses and malware take their usual spot as the second largest
problem. People should not take these threats lightly, as
they can unknowingly download malicious programs that can cause
some major dangers like giving hackers access to personal
information including bank accounts.
While you may find yourself constantly plagued by technology
problems, there are preventative measures for many of them, and you
can manage the ones you face with the right care. Generally, a good
way to avoid the majority of computer problems is to keep the
latest versions of all of your software installed and updated.
Keeping Internet security software running with the latest
definitions is also vital to prevent a myriad of issues, and you
can extend the life of your hardware by keeping your devices clean
and free of debris. For a full breakdown of all of the most
common computer problems, along with tips to avoid them, be sure to
