Where did I save that picture? I saved a Microsoft Word file three weeks ago how do I find it? How do I upload the pictures from my phone to the web? To my computer? Better get organized.
Charlie Olszewski says to organize your files into folders you need to know how to save to various locations (e.g., a USB drive, The hard disk, an external drive, the web), create (and delete, rename, move) folders, where to start these things from the desktop, how to use File Explorer (how to set it up to your liking). Then you need to know how to find “lost” files. Learn all these things; including the terminology in this two-part seminar. In addition, Charlie will provide tips on when to use shortcuts, talk about the various file types (various types of picture files, video, music, PDF, etc.), tips for file naming, and the Microsoft structure of downloads, pictures, documents, etc. Both parts have hands on exercises. For part 1 if you want, 1) bring your phone and a cable to connect the phone to the computer and if you store pictures &or files 2) on-line (in the cloud) be sure to bring the URL (it will begin with HTTPS:// or just HTTP://) to the storage and your password. You do not have to bring a phone or have onlinecloud storage to learn something from these classes.
Part 1 will focus on basic Windows skills (opening, closing multiple windows and resizing them), terminology, and moving files between USB drive, computer (hard disk), an external drive, the web (uploading and downloading).
