I have had extensive experience with setting up new computers with Windows 11 and customizing the new system to the new owner. If you are coming from another computer with Windows, the setup on a new computer may lead you in directions with end results that are quite different than what you had and will probably not be what you are expecting.

Windows 11 is a little different than Windows 10 and I can make the transition to a new computer nearly seamless. I can transfer your bookmarks, passwords and personal data, get your existing printer installed and other software to which you were accustomed.

Allowing me to set it up, I can configure the best Windows settings so your computer will run lean with minimal notifications and distractions. I can also give you some training that will give you a fantastic new-computer experience rather than a frustrating guessing game filled with pop-ups and notices to which you won't know if you are being scammed or if you are supposed to react.

If you are considering a new computer, feel free to contact me and I can give recommendations based on your needs and budget. Consider letting me do the initial setup right. And it doesn't have to be new - I can do the same with existing Windows systems that are already set up.

IMPORTANT!!!
Don't be fooled, don't call the number, don't reply, don't let them in!

This is the way scammers operate. Tricks to make you think something is wrong. Pop-ups originating from the Internet pretending to come from your computer. They are everywhere and these are tricks! If you see a number, DO NOT CALL IT. Do not ever let anyone you don't know take remote control of your computer. This is most likely the beginning of a scam being pulled on you.

Viruses and malware are on the decline and that means Internet trickery is on the rise.  If you see a full-screen pop-up showing you a phone number to call, IT IS A TRICK. Just close the browser window using Ctrl-Alt-Delete then to Task Manager to end the browser process(es). This will shut down the full-page popup disguised as a warning.

If you get an email regarding something for which you owe money, a product you don't remember ordering, a service you did not buy, an email from PayPal, or EVEN YOUR BANK, scrutinize it carefully and assume it is a trick. If in doubt, call your bank using the number you have called before or the number on the back of your credit card. NEVER call the number that is in the email.

They want you to allow them access to your computer to get your money. More ruthless scammers will put a hidden remote desktop application on your computer, change your password to lock you out until you pay ransom. They cannot do this unless you open the door for them.
