After all, it opens the way to a large number of different possibilities. You can learn to work on a computer completely free of charge or with minimal costs for tutorials.

- - a computer;
- - a self-study guide for working on a computer;

Instructions
Step 1
If you have a computer on which you can learn to work with it, feel free to turn on the machine. After waiting for your computer to boot, open Help and Support Center by pressing F1 or Start, then Help and Support. Open the "Windows Basics" section, it will show you all the basics of working on your computer. Also, this service describes in detail the principles of working on the Internet, computer settings, gives advice on troubleshooting problems, etc.
Step 2
Carefully studying each point of the basics of working in the operating system, consolidate the knowledge gained in practice. For example, if you are reading the description of how to enter the main menu of your computer, be sure to perform this operation yourself on your computer.
Step 3
Study the section "Principles of working on the Internet" so that in the future, if you have any questions about working with a computer, it would be possible to look for answers to them directly on the network. To do this, you just need to enter the question you are interested in in the search bar of the browser program. The most popular search services are Google, Yandex and Rambler.
Step 4
If you are having difficulty using the Help and Support from your computer, purchase the Beginner's Self-Study CD. It will describe in detail the basic principles of working on a computer with practical examples.
Step 5
In case you do not have a computer, but you want to learn how to work on it, buy a self-study guide on working on a computer for beginners in a bookstore. Study the chapters of the book carefully, in order, without missing out on the material - this way you will quickly understand the theory related to working on a computer. But keep in mind that without consolidation in the course of practical training, theoretical knowledge is quickly forgotten.
Step 6
When mastering a particular program, for example, Microsoft Word, you can also refer to the Help and Support section, a tutorial, or search for information on the Internet. In addition, in the window of the program itself (as well as in almost any computer application) there is a "Help" option, which can be called up by pressing F1 or by selecting the "Help" section in the program tabs.
