ALERT TO ALL CUSTOMERS!
Two major events are changing the future of Right On Computers.  First, the building our shop is in has been sold and will likely be renovated or at least refurbished.  This leaves us with lots of questions still seeking answers but CHANGE is on the horizon. Second, Clare will soon be retiring (his third retirement but who is counting) which will significantly impact the ability to serve walk-in customers.  Again, lots of questions still seeking answers but CHANGE is on the horizon.

Anyone want to buy in to a thriving computer repair business???

We are Newberg’s own computer and networking resource serving small businesses and individuals for over 30 years.
We strive to treat others as we would like to be treated – some call it the Golden Rule.

Stop in and see Clare or Bill for answers to your computer and networking questions. We primarily work on Windows-based PC’s but often solve tablet, MAC and smartphone issues as well.  We strive to refer you to someone who can resolve your issue if we can’t.

Encryption (Bitlocker) and One Drive can be THREATS to your computer!
Please DO NOT set up (whether knowingly or unknowingly) these features UNLESS you have a clear understanding of what they do.  PLUS, if you set them up, you must retain full knowledge and retrievability of your Microsoft ID, Password and encryption key (ALL of these are different than any logon for email or your PC).
When an encrypted PC or drive fails, we cannot retrieve your data without these credentials.  This becomes a frustrating waste of time for us and our customers plus often results in a total loss of your information.

PLEASE call us if you get disk errors or blue screens.  The Windows techniques to restore or refresh your operating system most often will weaken or destroy the ability to recover your personal information stored on the disk drive.  It is far more efficient for you and us to replace the existing hard drive in the PC BEFORE it fails completely.  Many have heard our half-flat tire analogy, HD problems always get worse and NEVER heal themselves.

BEWARE:  Several customers have been caught up in wire transfer scams.  Usually targeting business transactions, they succeed when there is no individual contact other than email to complete the transaction.  An email is used (usually masquerading as s business partner) to initiate wire transfers of over $100,000.  We know of two circumstances in our area where these transfers were completed and the money moved to the fraudulent parties.  The exact workings of the scams are as yet unknown.  ALWAYS DOUBLE CHECK WIRE-TRANSFER REQUESTS WITH AN ALTERNATE CONTACT SUCH AS VOICE-TO-VOICE.
