We recently received a great question from Bonnie, who emailed from Palm Bay, FL. Here’s what she asked:
“Where can I find safe, free screen savers for my laptop?”
There are several websites where you can get a safe and free screensaver for your laptop, and you must use a safe and reputable website.
2. Pexels

Pexels is a free stock website that has thousands of pictures available that are completely free and safe to download. You can go to pexels.com and simply type in screen saver in the search bar at the top of the website. When you click on a photo, a big green button will be in the top right corner. Click the downward arrow to select the size you want to download, and then click Download Selected Size. You can then go to your Downloads folder on your computer and follow the steps to set up your new screensaver.
