END OF WINDOWS 7  After 14th January, 2020 technical assistance and software updates will no longer be available for Windows 7 and computers will become vulnerable to security risks and viruses – so you need to update to Windows 10.  Microsoft may recommend getting a new computer but it’s relatively easy to update from Windows 7 at a reasonable cost.  Just drop your computer off anytime this year – and we’ll sort it!  And scan your computer, speed it up, and check everything at the same time!
