Frequently asked questions
Can my files be recovered if the PC will not boot?
Sometimes — it depends on the failure. Mention how critical your data is and whether you have backups so a local technician can prioritise recovery options.
Is it worth repairing an old laptop?
It depends on age, repair cost and your needs. Share the model and fault so a local repairer can advise whether repair, upgrade or replacement makes more sense.
