Data Recovery & Backup
Friendly, professional computer support for homes and small businesses.
Lost files or a failing drive? The safest first move is often to stop using the device.
How I Can Help
Stop Using the Drive
Continuing to use it can overwrite recoverable data.
Avoid DIY Installs
Do not install recovery software onto the affected disk.
Warning Signs
Clicking or repeated drive failures are a reason to power it down.
Recovery First
Protect important files before attempting broader repair.
Backup Next
Put a sensible backup routine in place after recovery.
Ask Before Experimenting
One careful attempt is better than several risky ones.
Recovery first.
Backup next.
Getting your files back solves today's problem. The next job is making sure the same scare does not happen again.
Once the important data has been recovered, I can help you put a straightforward backup routine in place for your documents, photographs, accounts and other files that matter.
I can help set up something sensible and easy to understand rather than leaving you with another complicated system to remember.
