  • Windows 10: Part 1
    Windows 10: Part 1 Updated: May 2018 Price: $2.00 A Special Note on Terminology Windows 10 accepts both mouse and touch commands. This means that you could use either mouse clicks or touch gestures interchangeably. Throughout this document, you will read either click, tap, or click/tap. Please note that you can click on anything that says “tap,” and you can tap on anything that says “click.” Click = Tap Double Click = Double Tap Click and Drag = Tap and Drag Right Click = Tap and Hold NOTE: You must have a touchscreen to use touch commands. What is Windows 10? Windows 10 is Microsoft’s latest operating system for home and work computers. An operating system (OS) is a collection of software that enables the user to interact with the computer. Currently, Windows is still the most popular OS on the market for personal or home computers. The Microsoft Account Before we go further, let’s talk about the Microsoft Account. When you first upgrade to Windows 10, or purchase a computer with Windows 10, you will have the opportunity to create a Microsoft ID. NOTE: You do not have to create an ID, but some features require you to create an account. A Microsoft ID allows you to access Internet-connected apps, the Microsoft Store, and Cortana. If these terms are new to you—don’t worry!—we will explain them later. For now, know that as you get more used to the computer, you may need to create a Microsoft account to use additional features in Windows. Lesson 1: Touring Windows 10 The Desktop After you start your computer and sign into Windows, you will see the desktop.
