Announcements:

I am currently writing at Computelogy.com actively and that's why i sort of abandoned my own tech blog. Since i am too busy to be taking care of both sides, i guess this blog will go into hibernation for a very very long time. Regrettable, but then it's hard to come up with new posts & stuffs.

So once again, i am now writing actively at Computelogy. Feel free to visit there and enjoy our latest articles and posts!

Conduct Simple 1-Click Windows Troubleshooting and Repair With Microsoft Fix It Center

There are two things that would normally frustrate Windows users: a malware-infected computer and a computer which have lots of rogue and broken files and settings that interfere with normal PC usage. In my experience, the latter actually often result in people reformatting their PC more than the former...and let's admit it, majority of people are un-geeky in the computer maintenance arena who don't even know how to defragment their PC...(thankfully Microsoft lets Windows Defragment run on a schedule without user interference since Vista!)






Microsoft has come up with a free utility software aiming to help those less tech-savvy users in troubleshooting and repair their Windows; this software is called Microsoft FixIt Center. It is currently in beta stage, but it is quite stable to use. It installs fast, requires minimal user attention and does not hog up many CPU resources or RAM to run.



What this lightweight little program does is troubleshoot your PC's common area where errors are known to occur and apply tweaks and suggestions for you to repair and solve the issue. It is design to be plain simple and friendly, with a complete list of troubleshooting area ranging from networks and internet connection to media players and power settings. 





With Fix It Center, I also believe Microsoft aims to create a full-featured database where they could collect, investigate and share troubleshooting tips and tweaks for multiple users. Which is why they also include the option for users to create an account with Microsoft Fix It Center where users can receive additional help and support.  



In fact, i think this utility will be just the next successful tool from Microsoft for the average users. I'm already planning to install this utility on one of my PCs for the long term, as well as installing it on other users' PC where they proved too average to troubleshoot and repair Windows settings. 



Microsoft Fix It Center Beta works with Windows XP (with Service Pack 3 installed only), Vista and 7.


Visit Microsoft Fix It Center Portal to download the utility tool for your PC.
