Fast, decisive intervention for critical IT situations — available across Canada
Ransomware encrypted your files. Do NOT pay the ransom — call us first.
Critical files deleted or drive failed during an important project.
Computer completely down before a critical deadline. We restore it fast.
Not every technical issue requires emergency service, but some situations demand immediate action to prevent irreversible damage or serious consequences. These situations justify emergency priority response:
For slower issues (slow computer, printer not working, WiFi dropouts), our standard computer repair service is more appropriate and more affordable.
From your first call to full resolution — a clear, fast process
Call (581) 398-1270. Briefly describe the emergency. Do not restart or shut down the affected computer unless we instruct you to.
We assess the severity, ask targeted questions, and determine whether remote or on-site intervention is needed.
We connect via AnyDesk within 30-60 minutes. For hardware failures in Montreal, we dispatch on-site within 2-4 hours.
We resolve the emergency, document what happened, and implement safeguards to prevent recurrence.
Do not wait — call us immediately. Every minute can matter in a ransomware or data loss situation.
Situations requiring immediate expert intervention
A message says your files are encrypted and demands payment. Stop everything. Do not pay. Call us — we assess whether free decryption tools exist for your ransomware type.
Your email, business account or social media was accessed without your permission. We help you regain control, secure the account, and assess what was compromised.
Black screen, blue screen of death, or infinite restart loop before an important meeting or deadline. We diagnose and repair remotely — or dispatch to Montreal.
You accidentally deleted or formatted the wrong drive containing critical files. Stop using the drive immediately — the sooner you call, the better the recovery chances.
Your computer is doing things on its own — sending emails, opening programs, files changing. This could be active malware. Disconnect from the internet and call us.
Password forgotten, account locked, Windows login broken right before an important presentation. We restore access without losing your data.
Server crash affecting your entire team’s ability to work. We stabilize the situation remotely and restore operations as fast as possible.
Unknown devices on your router, dramatically slow internet, or strange outbound connections. Could be an intrusion — requires immediate investigation.
Why fast response matters
Real emergencies we resolved for clients across Canada
"Ransomware hit my laptop at 9pm on a Sunday. I had a huge client presentation Monday morning. IT Cares answered my call, connected remotely, and had my key files recovered by midnight. They saved my business."
"My email was hacked and someone was impersonating me to clients. IT Cares locked the attacker out within 20 minutes, changed all credentials, and helped me notify affected contacts. Incredibly fast."
"Hard drive failed on the day I needed to submit my thesis. IT Cares recovered 98% of my files including 3 years of research. I cannot thank them enough. Worth every penny."
When you call our emergency line, you speak to a real technician — not a bot, not a queue. We commit to beginning work on your emergency within 2 hours of your call, any day of the week.
