Troubleshooting
Your PC isn't broken — it's probably just bloated. These guides diagnose the most common performance problems in plain language and walk you through the fixes step by step.Slow startup, sluggish apps, games that stutter mid-fight, Chrome freezing on two tabs — every one of these has a specific cause, and most of them can be fixed in under 5 minutes with nothing more than Windows Settings and Task Manager.We don't assume you know what VBS, telemetry, or HAGS means. Each guide starts from zero, explains the "why" before the "how," and links to a deeper walkthrough in our PC Optimization guides if you want to go further.If you play specific games, we also maintain per-game optimization guides covering in-game settings, GPU driver config, shader cache, and network tuning for titles like Fortnite, Warzone, CS2, Valorant, Tarkov, and more.Fix Common PC Problems
