PC Maintenance and Security

The first tutorial I chose was "Good Security and Saftey Habits" I chose this because I have no idea what habits I should have when it comes to keeping my PC safe. One thing I learned that I will tell others is about the System Restore feature though Windows. I was very suprised that I can choose and name a point in time on my computer that can be a checkpoint for restoration. For example, I can name a time through System Restore before I install software. If the software makes my computer run weird or slow, I can restore my PC to the time prior to instalation to make it run normal again.
The second tutorial I chose was "Making email Safter" I will be sharing how I can set up filters through my Gmail account and have specific domain or email address automatically deleted. This is so amazing! I hate getting all that spam, and now I can create a filter so I NEVER have to even see the spam.
The final tutorial I chose was "Clean Up and Speed UP your PC" I learned about Windows Cleanup! This downloadable program cleans up your hardrive and gets rid of all excess baggage on your PC. Recovering space? YES! This reminds me of a maid service for a dirty house! Getting all the junk out and giving your PC space! LOVE IT!

  1. I have seen the System Restore used several times before. It is such a good way to re-set your computer after issues arise.
