At RepairWindowsOnline, we take every precaution when working on your computer remotely.
Precautions We Take
- We assess risks before making changes.
- We avoid modifications to operating system files, drivers, or critical data.
- Whenever possible, we ensure changes can be rolled back.
Customer Responsibility
Despite our precautions, data loss can still occur due to viruses, malware, or hardware failure. For this reason:
- You must back up important data (documents, photos, music, financial files, etc.) before service.
- Backups should be stored on an external drive or cloud service.
- If you do not have a backup, you must inform the technician so additional safeguards can be taken.
Hardware Issues
If our technicians determine that hardware is failing (such as a hard drive or motherboard):
- We will notify you immediately.
- Remote repair cannot continue since physical replacement is required.
- We recommend contacting a local PC repair shop for hardware replacement.
Remote Access Software
We use enterprise-grade remote support tools, such as LogMeIn Rescue or ScreenConnect, to perform repairs.
Why We Use Them
- Trusted by both consumers and enterprises.
- Strong security and privacy features.
- No unnecessary software installed on your PC.
Session Policy
- Remote software is active only during your support session.
- Once the session ends, the software is removed.
- We cannot access your system without your consent.
- Unlike some competitors, we never leave remote access software behind.
Accountability
All technician actions during a session are logged. If concerns arise, our management team can review these logs to ensure quality and accountability.
