TechyGeeksHome has been helping IT professionals, system administrators, and Windows enthusiasts since 2010. What started as a small blog has grown into one of the UK’s most practical IT reference sites, with over 1,500 real-world guides, fixes, and tutorials published over 15 years.
Who’s Behind It?
My name is Andrew Armstrong. I’m a UK-based IT professional with over 26 years of hands-on experience across Windows desktop and server environments, Microsoft System Center, PowerShell, Active Directory, networking, and virtualisation.
I started TechyGeeksHome because I was tired of finding guides online that were either out of date, too vague, or written by people who had never actually done the thing they were describing. Every guide on this site comes from real-world experience — things I’ve actually built, fixed, deployed, or troubleshot in production environments.
