Hey, everyone. Oftentimes I'm asked, what is computer hygiene? We all understand washing our hands was one of the most important things to do back during COVID and even now. But when, when it comes to computer hygiene, one of the most important things we need to do is patch our systems and update our systems.
And why? I'm gonna give you three reasons why it's so critically important. Number one, to improve your performance. Often times the manufacturers will release a patch or an update that's going to improve your performance, which buys you back time in your life.
Next thing, and this is a big one, is bug fixes. There are problems in software, as we all know, and the manufacturers will release those bug fixes or improvements as a patch or a fix. You need to go ahead and make sure those are applied on a regular basis.
And the last one, and this is, this is almost a gimme, is you get some new features. The vendors don't wait till the next version of a product. They will slip those in into a patch, and they'll give you some enhanced features that you can take advantage.
Those are your top three reasons why you should be updating your systems.
