FAQs

Yes! We aren't experts on every application or piece of software but we'd love to help you get started.

Removing viruses and malware from devices is very difficult and usually requires professional service. We would be happy to take a look at the device and see if there may be something else slowing it down. We can not remove malware.

One-on-one assistance is provided during Drop-In. The length of time that we can spend with each person depends on the volume of attendees that show up. You can expect at least 15 minutes, on a busy day, depending on your question.

Absolutely! Many folks enjoy Drop-In because we provide the space to work on their devices on their own. If a problem arises, someone will be able to assist.
