He made a folder called ‘Jordan Haywood’ and divided it into 3 different sections called. ‘Home, work and study’. He then configured the operating system to back up/save all the files and did a check to ensure that they did. He also got the computer system to delete unwanted data without risk of deleting data he wanted/needed. He then did a process called defragmentation which organizes data that would automatically load as the computer starts up, this way it will load quicker. Then the temporary files were deleted. He then did an overall cleaning of the keyboard, mouse and monitor, then added a4 and a3 paper. The mouse was not broken and worked fine so there was no need to replace the mouse.
