Did you use your laptop properly?

Since its inception, laptops have met the needs of many people using computers. Thanks to portability, they allow you to easily carry around, unrestricted and constrained like a desktop computer. However, in exchange for flexibility, portable laptops are also more vulnerable than desktops if you are not careful during use.

Common errors when using a laptop that way

1. Download and install the malware

Usually, these software often hide under the "free software" shadow that you happen to encounter online. You feel excited with useful features and don't hesitate to install now. Just like that, after only a short time, the pretty laptop installed dozens of unnecessary and unnecessary software. In addition, we ignore the safety warnings, contributing to making the system slower.

"Dangerous" software often strikes a curious psychology, likes users' discoveries. But most of them require you to accept other terms such as information usage, toolbar installation, homepage setting .

This is also the source of spreading malicious viruses and code. There are even viruses that impersonate free antivirus programs, so inexperienced users become "good prey" for bad guys to take advantage of.

2. Put your laptop in bed

Maybe our bed will be very clean and warm, so don't put your laptop on the bed. The reason is that when the laptop is placed in this area, the device is difficult to escape heat and quickly heats up, reducing the life of the electronic components inside.

Obviously, this habit should be dropped immediately, but not many users despise. Some even think that putting a laptop in bed will feel warmer. So both harm the machine, and also harm the user.

3. Put books, heavy objects on the computer

In essence, laptops are often not designed to bear the weight of other devices. Everyone understands this but many of you look down, believing that it is okay to leave 1-2kg of heavy objects. Many cases even prefer to put books and objects on the keyboard to look more "pro ".

Laptop screens are very vulnerable if they have to suffer "unfortunate" bumps. At that time, the cost of repairing and replacing the screen will be very expensive.

4. Bumping the laptop while moving

The cost of a laptop is often much higher than that of desktop computers. Apart from mobility, their production technology is also different. You should understand that electronics are afraid of collisions and laptops are more concerned about it . But sometimes, people forget that because they believe their laptop belongs to the "cattle" category, so they don't need to be scared.

In fact, most collisions do not cause the system to break down immediately but will inhibit use and long-term damage. Sure, you should buy a genuine shockproof bag or backpack to hold your laptop.

5. Just use laptop and drink

Do you want to see your laptop go swimming? If you want, just use your laptop and drink (coffee, soft drinks, vitamins .). If you want to take care of your "sweetie" very well, remember not to eat or drink while using a laptop.

6. Limit touch screen

Cleaning the laptop screen with tools and specialized cleaning water will not be a problem. But if we regularly dot the screen, there will be a lot of problems. Using a fingernail or pen tip directly can scratch the screen, making it uncomfortable to use later.

Heavier, too strong action also caused dead spots, areas of dead spots on the laptop screen. And especially, the cost of changing the laptop screen is not cheap at all, so it's best not to touch the screen (except for touch-sensitive laptops).

7. Self-healing for laptops

With a user who is really knowledgeable about laptops, they sometimes make mistakes. For those who have never looked inside the device, it is best not to remove the laptop yourself.

Inside laptops include many small, fragile, perishable and confusing components and devices, unlike desktop computers. If something goes wrong, we should ask the expert advice, or bring it to the repair shop instead of foolishly groping for ourselves.

8. Turn off the "hot" computer

Many users want to save a few seconds but then the laptop is broken and it takes a lot of time to fix. It sounds like a joke but will come true if you keep the habit of turning off your computer with a Power button or removing the battery charger (or battery).

The manufacturer always recommends that users turn off the computer by using the "Shut down" function in the operating system? As such, the programs will be fully saved and the computer will be turned off in the correct order. If you turn off "hot" , the power cut abruptly can cause damage to expensive internal components such as CPU, HDD .
