    Why proper laptop setup matters

    A new laptop out of the box is not ready for business use. It needs Windows configured, Microsoft 365 signed in, email and OneDrive set up, antivirus installed, updates applied, and often data transferred from the previous device. When this is done by hand, things get missed — and the device ends up not fully configured for weeks.

    London PC Fix sets up new laptops for businesses and home users across London. We handle the full process so the device is ready to use as soon as we leave.

    Setup is available on-site at your premises or remotely if the device already has internet access.
