SCORE: Keeping Your Computer Fast & Healthy

Description

Computers, unlike people, do not slow down with age. They slow down and freeze up due to bloat and corruption added either knowingly by the manufacturer or even unknowingly by the owner. We will discuss basic maintenance, as well as security steps, that will keep you from having to buy a new computer just because "It has become so slow", including what to watch for when installing aftermarket programs, a weekly maintenance schedule everyone can do and stuff from the net to avoid. This "how-to" workshop focuses on PC-based computers, although general principles will also apply to Apple computers.  
 
The discussion about Windows 8.1 covers the new features of the operating system, who should consider migrating to Windows 8.1, pros & cons of migration and which version to purchase. There will also be An Introduction to Windows 10.
