OK, today I’m going to share with you one of my best tips for solving tech problems with your computer, tablet or phone.

It’s easy to do and it really works.

The next time things go wonky with your tech — just turn it off and then turn it on again!

For 99% of your issues this fixes the problem.

Why? Because restarting your device untangles whatever was messed up. You go back to square one with a fresh start.

Try it next time you’re ready to take a hammer to your computer and save yourself the frustration of trying to figure out what’s wrong with it!

Just let it fix itself with a reset.

P.S. This works for your life too! You can hit the restart button any time you want to make a fresh start.
