Computer maintenance keeps your computer running smoothly by performing regular tasks such as deleting temporary files, defragmenting your hard drive, and running virus scans. On the other hand, computer repair is fixing problems that have already occurred on your computer.

Computer maintenance means keeping your computers and laptops in good condition through regular cleanings, hard drive updates, and virus prevention. Doing so can lengthen the lifespan of your devices and it can also help you browse the web more safely.

Hardware repair Technicians also work with and occasionally repair a range of peripherals, including input devices (like keyboards, mice, webcams and scanners), output devices (like displays, printers, and speakers), and data storage devices such as internal and external hard drives and disk arrays.

Computer repair is the process of fixing or replacing faulty or damaged hardware or software components of a computer. Computer repair can involve diagnosing the problem, replacing or upgrading parts, reinstalling or updating software, or recovering data.
