Editorial standards and corrections

Technology tutorials are only useful if they are accurate on the day you read them. This page explains how TechFix Guide is produced, what we can and cannot verify, and what happens when we get something wrong.

Who writes this site

Every guide is published under the TechFix Guide editorial team byline. We are a small independent publisher, not a software vendor, and we do not accept payment from the companies whose products we write about. The team is contactable at yanli20140223@gmail.com, and the same address handles corrections, questions and removal requests.

How an article is produced

Research first. We start from the vendor's own documentation, release notes and in-product help text for the specific version named in the article.
Drafting. Drafts are prepared by the editorial team using research notes and writing tools, then edited by a person. We state this plainly because pretending otherwise would be dishonest, and because it changes what you should expect from us: you should expect the steps to match the official documentation, not folklore passed between blogs.
Accuracy pass. Before publishing we re-read the guide against the source material, check that menu paths and option names exist in the version we name, and remove any claim we cannot support.
Ongoing revision. Interfaces change. When a guide no longer matches the current software, we update the article and move its Updated date. The date shown on a post is the date of the last substantive edit, not the original publication date.

What we do not do

We do not invent statistics, benchmarks, prices or survey results.
We do not recommend a paid product because we are paid to. There are no sponsored posts and no affiliate links on this site.
We do not claim to have tested hardware or software we have not used. Where a guide is based on documented behaviour rather than our own hands-on use, the article says so.
We do not publish instructions that bypass licensing, break DRM, or promote pirated software.

Limits you should know about

Menu names, file paths and default settings differ between Windows editions, OEM builds, app versions and hardware vendors. We name the version we are describing, but a screenshot-worthy step in your build may sit one menu level away. Where instructions involve risk — partitioning a disk, editing the registry, resetting a device — we say so and point to the safer alternative first. Always keep a backup before making system-level changes.

Corrections policy

If something here is wrong, tell us and we will fix it. Write to yanli20140223@gmail.com with the article URL and the step that failed. We aim to reply within 48 hours and to correct confirmed errors within two working days. Substantive corrections are described at the bottom of the affected article; typo-level edits are made silently.

How the site is funded

Hosting is paid for by the site owner and offset by a limited number of display ads served through Google AdSense. Ad placement is not influenced by article content, and no advertiser sees an article before publication. Cookies and third-party advertising are described in our privacy policy.
