The Real Question

Can my computer be fixed without losing my files?

Yes — most computers that won't boot have a software problem, not a dead machine. A failed Windows update, damaged boot files, a bad driver or malware can stop Windows or macOS from loading while your files sit untouched on the drive.

The mistake is reinstalling first and asking questions later. We test the drive and hardware, back up your files, and only then repair or reinstall the operating system.

Vancouver freelancers and small offices can't afford a week without a working computer. Most startup repairs and virus removals are finished the same day, with free pickup from across Vancouver.

If the free diagnostic finds the drive itself is failing, your files go to our data recovery lab in Vancouver first — before any OS work.
Quick Answer
Windows won't boot, macOS won't start, viruses and blue screens are diagnosed free. Your files are backed up before any reinstall. No fix, no fee.

Identify Your Problem

What is your computer doing right now?

Different symptoms point to different causes. Find yours below before you try a reset.

Medium–High 🔁

Windows Won't Boot or Startup Repair Loop

Stuck on "Preparing Automatic Repair", spinning dots, or "Your PC did not start correctly". Usually corrupted boot files or a failed update.

Don't choose "Reset this PC". It can erase your files.

Common Issue 🟦

Blue Screen Errors (BSOD) and Crashes

Random restarts and blue screens point to a bad driver, a corrupted system file — or failing RAM or storage.

Free diagnostic tests hardware and software.

Medium–High 🍎

Mac Won't Start or macOS Is Corrupted

Stuck on the Apple logo, a flashing question-mark folder, or a progress bar that never finishes after an update.

Don't erase the disk in macOS Recovery.
Get help with this →
Common Issue 🦠

Virus, Malware or Pop-Ups

Browser hijacked, fake security warnings, unknown programs, or a computer that suddenly runs hot and slow.

Stop entering passwords on it until it's cleaned.
Get help with this →
High Severity 🔒

Ransomware — Files Encrypted

Files renamed with a strange extension and a ransom note on the desktop. Recovering the files comes before cleaning the system.

Disconnect from the network. Don't wipe the drive.
Ransomware data recovery →
Lower Severity 🐢

Very Slow or Freezing

Takes minutes to start, freezes when opening files, or the disk sits at 100%. Sometimes software — sometimes an early sign of a failing drive.

Back up now, then get the drive tested.

The Repair Process

How our Vancouver system & OS repair works — files first.

Free pickup from across Vancouver. Free diagnostic, files backed up first, no fix no fee.

1
Free Diagnostic — Always
We check the operating system, the drive's health and the hardware, so a software fix isn't applied to a failing drive.
2
Written Quote Before Any Work
You get the cause, the fix and the timeline in writing. Nothing starts without your approval.
3
Your Files Backed Up First
Documents, photos and email are copied off before any repair or reinstall touches the system.
4
Repair, Update & Return
Startup repaired or OS reinstalled, drivers and updates installed, files restored, and the computer tested before it goes back.
✅
If we can't fix it, you pay nothing. Not a diagnostic fee. Not a call-out charge. Zero.

Honest Advice

Don't do these when your computer won't start.

Each one can turn a software repair into lost files.

✕
"Reset This PC" or Erase Disk
Reset and erase options are built to wipe. If your files aren't backed up, they go with it.
✕
Downloading "PC Cleaner" Tools
Many free cleaners and pop-up "antivirus" offers are the malware. They add infections instead of removing them.
✕
Repeated Hard Power-Offs
Holding the power button during an update or boot loop can corrupt more system files each time.
✕
Running CHKDSK on a Failing Drive
Disk repair tools write to the drive. On a failing drive they can damage the data you're trying to save.
✕
Wiping a Ransomware-Hit Drive
Wiping removes the chance of getting files back. Disconnect it and have it assessed first.

Common Questions

System & OS Repair Vancouver — frequently asked questions.

Straight answers about virus removal, startup repair and reinstalls.

Yes. We remove viruses, malware, adware and browser hijackers from Windows PCs and Macs, clean up startup programs and install security updates. Most virus removals are finished the same day.
No. Free pickup covers Downtown, Kitsilano, Mount Pleasant, East Vancouver, Kerrisdale and North Vancouver — we collect it, take it to our Surrey lab at 14935 100th Ave, and bring it back. Walk-in drop-off is also available Monday to Saturday with no appointment.
Yes. Your documents, photos and email are copied off before any reinstall and put back afterwards, along with drivers and updates. Nothing is wiped without your approval.
In most cases, yes. A boot failure is usually corrupted boot files or a failed update, and your files are still on the drive. We back them up first, then repair startup or reinstall Windows, and restore your files.
Most startup repairs and virus removals are same day. A Windows or macOS reinstall with file backup takes 1–2 days. If a failing drive or other hardware is the cause, 2–5 days. Priority service is available.
It depends on what's wrong — a startup repair is simpler than a full reinstall with data backup. The diagnostic is free and you get a written quote before any work. If we can't fix it, you pay nothing.
Then your files come first. The drive goes to our data recovery lab for imaging before any OS work, then a new drive is fitted and the system set up fresh.
