Why Is My Machine Slowing Down?

Chief Problem Solver from Your Computer Guy

A computer running Windows can slow down for many reasons. Viruses, spyware, software updates, hardware issues, and more can lead to performance drops.
Slow machines represent one of the largest sources of work for us.

Perhaps when you purchased your computer, it ran like a champ and quickly did everything you needed. Now … well, not so much. Perhaps it takes forever to boot. Or starting applications is slower than molasses. Or maybe the machine acts sluggish when you try to use it for just about anything.

Regardless of the specifics, the underlying theme is simple: it’s slow. There are many, many reasons that a machine could slow down. Let’s list a few of the most common reasons here, along with some advice on what steps to take.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
