Frequently asked questions
Answers in plain English.
Will I lose my files and programs?
We aim to remove the infection without wiping your files or installed programs. A reinstall is considered only if it is genuinely needed, and we discuss it with you before going ahead.
How long does virus removal take?
Many jobs are done the same day or within 24 hours; availability and how severe the infection is can affect timing. An emergency same-day option may be available for $75 + HST extra.
Does the warranty cover the virus coming back?
Our 30-day warranty covers our workmanship. A new infection from downloading or reinstalling malware after the service is a new service call, which is why we set up protection and go over prevention tips when we hand the computer back.
Do you remove viruses from Macs?
Yes. We help with malware and unwanted software on both Windows PCs and Macs.
