Falls Church computers slow down for the usual reasons: years of updates, full drives, crowded startup lists and sometimes adware. We test for all of them and fix the ones that are holding your computer back.
We visit homes in Falls Church City, Seven Corners and Lake Barcroft and small offices on Broad Street. You see the startup time before and after, and we explain each change in plain language.

Why Falls Church calls us
Cause Found First
We measure what is using your memory, drive and processor before changing anything.
Before and After Times
We time your startup before and after so you can see the improvement.
Your Programs Stay
We keep every program you use and only remove what is junk.
Steps We Take
Driver and app updates
Outdated drivers and software can slow a computer. We update them to current, stable versions.
Drive and heat check
We test the drive and cooling at the end of every tune-up to catch problems early.
Startup cleanup
We turn off programs that launch at startup and slow everything down, keeping the ones you need.
Hard drive to SSD swap
An SSD upgrade can make a five-year-old computer feel new. We handle the copy and the install.
More RAM
We add memory to laptops and desktops that run short during video calls and multitasking.
Adware and malware cleanup
Hidden adware and malware slow computers down. We scan for them and remove what we find.
Performance settings
We set power, visual and update settings so Windows runs faster on your hardware.
Extension cleanup
Bloated browsers are a common slowdown. We clean out extensions, cache and unwanted toolbars.
Older office computers in Falls Church
Small offices often keep computers in service for many years. A planned speed-up, with a drive check, cleanup and memory review, can extend their life. We note the age and condition of each machine so you know which ones to replace first.
