PCs usually stop working smoothly or face issues pertaining to security and performance but it doesn’t mean that you need to replace them for these petty reasons rather the best way is to fix those issues. Most of the time, such problems are driven by petty faults which you consider big and press the panic button in hurry. But you will be glad to know that these problems can be easily fixed if you know the right tricks and tips.

In this article you will get to know about the 5 most faced tech issues that can take place on your PC along with appropriate resolutions for them. Find below the issues and their resolutions one-by-one.

PC running slow

Slow running PC is faced by most of the users today which may take place because of several reasons. Before seeking resolution of the issue, you must make sure the source of the issue - whether it is the PC or something else. Sometimes, your PC may not be responsible for its slow speed as speed depends upon lot more other things such as web buffering speed, and websites that take longer to load. So you are suggested not to blame your PC straightaway for slow speed rather check whether it is really the source of the problem or not?

Once you ensure that the problem lies within the PC, you need to check your hard drive whether it has the enough space to hold your operating system (OS) and other important applications. For making Windows run smoothly, you need to have enough space on your hard disk. You are likely to suffer with poor speed and performance in case of paucity of space on the hard drive.

Another effective way of dealing with slow performance is to use System Configuration tool provided by Microsoft. When you start up your PC, many applications start up by default which increases the boot time - particularly in older PCs. So the ideal way is to keep the startup items as less as possible.

PC keeps restarting

You face frequent restarts of your PC mostly because of hardware problems that are generally difficult to diagnose. In case of these irritating restarts, firstly you need to check whether it is any Windows update which is making the PC to restart every now and then. If Windows update is not the culprit then look upon the hardware components such as graphics card, motherboard, and network card drivers.

The problem of frequent restart also happens because of virus or malware infection and overheating of the device. So to prevent issues because of virus infection you need to keep your PC protected with an updated security program offered from reputed companies such as Norton, AVG, Kaspersky and others.

Pop-ups appearing frequently on the screen

If you are getting irritating pop ups on your screen even when you haven’t run or launched the web browser then probably you have unknowingly installed an adware on the PC. Adware is a malicious program that brings unsolicited advertisements on the screen of your PC. Although, some of these ads are useful but most of the time they are irritating and distractive. Removing these adware is not easy because they are installed in the deeper layer of the OS including Windows registry.

The ideal way of removing adware from the system is to run a full PC scan with a credible antivirus software. If such programs don’t prove of enough help in removing the adware then you can also use Malwarebytes, which is a free anti-malware and a useful tool for removing such threats.

Wi-Fi network keeps disconnecting

Internet connectivity with frequent breaks tests your patience before it can finally turn you frustrated. An unsteady Wi-Fi connectivity is a huge impediment to your work online. You should check your PC, router, and ISP in case of an unsteady Wi-Fi connectivity before calling your Internet service provider or tech support professional.

Moreover, you should also ensure that your computer is within the range of wireless router. If signals will be weak then connectivity will be weaker, so make sure the device is within the range of the router. Furthermore, also make sure that the wireless card of your PC has the latest drivers.

So if you are facing any of the issues mentioned above then you should try troubleshooting them with the tips mentioned above. In case these tips don’t work out then it is the right time to take help of a certified technical support professional.
