Getting to Know Windows from an Insider’s Point of View

Session 1 – What’s new with Win 10, the 2004 Spring feature update
Have you customized your Start menu, Taskbar, and Notifications? What are those  Hidden Icons? How can I immediately get back to my Desktop? Can you easily see your mouse pointer? How about the Display text size? We’ll also take a look at the powerful Search options.

Session 2 – Settings

Bill explores the many options we can change to make our computer more secure. Do you know how much Ram you have? What version of Windows? What about the Security & Update area, do you take a look at it every once in a while? Do you check your custom settings after the spring and fall Feature update?

Session 3 – File Explorer

Back-in-the-day, Bill Gates told us to think of our hard drive as a file cabinet and to organize our files. File Explorer is our handy file cabinet. We’ll dig into File Explorer to see how it can help us with our daily life with our computer. Have you added the helpful checkbox?
