Cleaning my laptop

I have a 5 year old laptop, I actually gave it for a repair 2 years ago, and they cleaned the dust, too.

But now, it's overheating pretty hard.

I want to know, how to clean the dust from the laptop without disassembling it.

I just want it to be simple and that it is clean from dust.

Blow compressed air into it, but you really won't be doing much unless you disassemble it.

try to open all screws that are easy to get, then just get the vacuum cleaner and try to get in those holes, but not too long so the Fan won't overspin

Well, then I have to give it to a repair center.

I really don't want to disassemble it because I am afraid that I will damage something.

If it was a PC, I would do it with ease.

 

just undo the back screws and vacuum or blow compressed air into it then put the screws back on.
