Refreshing a PC
Posted: Mon Jan 24, 2022 12:11 pm
We have a "family" dell which is used for general use, storing Photo's, my iTunes library etc. Following a year or 2 of Mini Dinny using it for this and that, it's now running ridiculously slowly and in serious need of a refresh.
Ideally, I'd like to re-install Windows and take it right back to the start but keep all files. i.e. I don't want to format and re-install the software as I really don't fancy ripping 500 odd CD's again into iTunes.
But in reality, any maintenance type update that could be triggered would be better than nothing
I appreciate I'm asking for moon on a stick here but I don't know where to start and there are literally millions of sites all telling you different things.
