What is the easiest way to fix electronics from water damage?

In my experience, the simplest way to salvage electronics from water damage is to first power off the device and remove any removable parts. Dry off any visible water with a soft cloth, then place the device in a container filled with uncooked rice or silica gel packets for at least 24 hours. These materials absorb moisture and can help dry out the internal parts of your device. Once done, you can assemble the device back together and power it on. Remember, it's best to not use a hairdryer or any heat source as it might cause further damage.
