Introduction

Experiencing repeated software glitches or performance slowdowns on your work computer can disrupt your productivity. This guide provides clear, professional steps for Willcox & Savage staff to effectively address such issues, ensuring smooth and reliable operation of your software systems.

Initial Troubleshooting Steps

Begin by restarting the affected application. If the problem persists, restart your computer to clear temporary issues that might impact performance.

Ensure all your software is up to date. Check for and install any updates available via the internal IT support portal or notifications to benefit from the latest fixes and improvements.

If applicable to the software in question, clear cache or temporary files, which can sometimes accumulate and cause glitches or slowdowns.
