01

Free, no catch

Every guide is free to read. There is no premium tier, no paid hotline and no sign-up. If a problem needs a repair shop or the maker's own support, we say so.

02

No phone numbers

We never publish support phone numbers and we never call anyone. A pop-up or caller that tells you to phone "support" about a virus is a scam.

03

Checked against official help

Steps follow the current documentation from Microsoft, Apple, Google and device makers, and each page shows when it was last updated.
