I bought my prebuilt PC about two years ago and since then I've never opened it, I think it might have dust inside, I've got a bit of knowledge about the different components but I've never cleaned a PC neither do I feel confident about disassembling or assembling one.

Disassemble? Probably not.

But at the very least, you need to take the side cover(s) off and blow the dust out.
Take it outside to do that.

But should I do it from time to time or if I keep opening and blowing it it will be fine?

Take the side panel off.
Look around inside with a bright flashlight. You'll see what needs to be done.

Do this every 6 months or so, depending on your environment.
