We use computers all the time, but sometimes struggle with basic concepts like the file system, system settings, basic applications that come with the operating system. In this course, I'll introduce you to all these basics. After that I will teach you the absolute basics of working with common file types like PDFs, images, audio and video. The goal of this course is to give you the skills you need to make you more efficient, productive and comfortable in the Windows environment.
