Execute Required Software Updates

Software purchased and installed from a physical package is often outdated, as developers frequently release updates. A boxed package that has been on the shelf for a while won’t include these updates. Our computer support services include downloading and installing all necessary updates to ensure your software is current.

Finally, shortcuts—icons used to launch a program—will be created on the desktop, in the start menu (for Windows), and in the quick launch menu. This ensures programs are easy to find, so you always know where to click when accessing an application.
