The Important Health Checks Your Computer Never Shows You
Dec 16, 2025Your computer checks lots of things automatically—but not the ones you actually care about.
It won’t clearly tell you:
-
If your battery is wearing out faster than expected
-
If your storage drive is close to failing
-
If critical updates are missing
-
If background software is quietly dragging things down
-
If your system is ready for the next OS update
Instead, you get vague messages—or nothing at all.
Most people assume:
“If it turns on, it must be fine.”
That’s usually not true.
Computers often keep working while something important is degrading in the background. By the time you notice obvious problems, you’re already in recovery mode instead of prevention mode.
This is why “everything was fine yesterday” is such a common story.
Later this week, I’ll be sharing a way to surface these hidden health issues early, without digging through settings or logs.
