Electronic devices are replaceable but what about the memories stored on them? What about all the pictures, videos, files, and sound recordings on them?
Sometimes the device goes bad, the battery won’t work, the screen won’t show anything, or the screen won’t respond to touch. It will be much cheaper to have your personal information backed up to a cloud (a part of the internet that can store files) then to pay $700+ to ship it to a clean room to get the information off of it.
If you own a Microsoft PC and the hard drive is being a little slow there are a few fixes that can free up space that in the end help your computer run more efficiently and faster. One way is to perform a Disk Cleanup. Windows 7 and Windows 10.
Click on the bottom left Start button
Click on All Programs
Go to Accessories
Click on System Tools
Go to Disk Cleanup (if you have Windows 10 you can just type in “Disk Cleanup” in the bottom left search menu by the start button)
Choose which drive to clean up
When you click “ok” the system will look up space to free
You will get a window that displays files to delete. Be aware of the biggest folders or files as deleting them will free up the biggest space
If you still use Windows 7: When you have made your choice click on “Clean up system files”
When you have clicked on “Clean up system files” the system will perform a check.
After that has been done by the system click “ok”
