When your Windows PC acts up, what do you wish you could just ask it?
Question for people who run Windows at home or at work.
When your PC acts up, what's the first thing you wish you could just ask it? "Why is C: full?" "Why did it restart overnight?" "Did my backup actually copy everything?" "Which file had the word 'renewal' in it?"
I keep seeing the same few questions in forums, and the answers are almost always "run these eight commands and paste the output". I'm building Local Commander so your AI runs them on the PC itself and tells you what it found. I use it on my own machines. Before I write anything up as a how-to I want to know which questions people actually have.
What would be yours?

My question would be "Did my backup actually copy everything?" and I'd lead your how-tos with it, because people only learn the answer was no after a laptop dies, and that fear is what gets a small business owner to pay. "Why is C: full?" probably gets asked more, but free cleanup tools already answer it well enough for most people.
Ryan, the backup question is the one I'd want answered before trusting my own setup. I'd want the result to show what was backed up, what was missed, and when someone last tested a restore. I wouldn't want an AI saying “you're covered” just because it found a successful backup log. Have you seen a specific small business run into this? What were they using, and what did they discover was missing? That would help me build the how-to around a real failure.
