Troubleshoot Windows 7 using wizards
For some typical tasks or problems, Windows 7 provides wizards to help you solve them. While this does not always work, it is a first attempt for less experienced users to find the solution themselves.
- The wizards can be found in the "Control Panel".
- There, click on the "Detect and fix problems" link under "System and security".
- When the question about the use of the latest content is displayed, click "Yes" to be able to use the latest updates online.
- With a click on the link »Show all« in the top left you get a list of the available assistants.
- Select the appropriate wizard and click on "Next".
- In some cases, after a few tests, you will receive a solution that has already been implemented: for example, when you play audio files, the wizard notices and corrects when the system is currently muted.
Note: In the event of serious problems, however, you still need help via a specialist magazine, forum, Google or your IT specialist friend.
