Step 1
We turn on the computer. We are waiting for the system to load. Usually, many users have a Windows system, the principle of which is based on working with dialog boxes - an interface. After loading, we see a desktop in front of us. It can contain the main folders, files, documents. In the upper left corner there is a shortcut "My Computer". When you open it, you will be shown a window that displays system drives, hard disk partitions, and floppy drives. Basically, disk partitions are your storage of information.
Step 2
Let's move on to creating folders. A folder is a very important element designed to store and organize information. For example, if you have a lot of different music and you want to sort it out. We create folders for different artists and genres, throw in the existing music in accordance with the folders. To create a folder, you need to right-click, then select "create", and select the sub-item "folder". After that, we can set the name of the folder. To change the language, press the key combination "alt + shift" or "ctrl + shift".

The next step is to learn to select, open and copy information. In order to select a file or folder, you need to click on it with the left mouse button once. By clicking and holding the left mouse button, you can move your document anywhere. To open the document, double-click on the left mouse button. If you right-click on a file or folder, a menu will open. Select Rename to rename the document. To copy, press "copy". After that, it goes to the folder or section where you want to copy the file. Press again the right mouse button and select "paste".
Step 4
To listen to music or watch videos, you need to install special programs called "players". To install, you need to open the installation file (install.exe). The installation window will appear. Just follow the instructions and the installation will be complete in a few minutes. The program will automatically detect video and audio files, and you just have to open them. Any program is installed in this way. Please note that the shortcuts of the installed application appeared on the desktop.
Step 5
Special programs are also used for typing. Install Microsoft Word or use the standard operating system offered to the user.
Step 6
Now about going online. To use the resources of the Internet, you need to register its connection. After that, you need to install a browser - a program for browsing pages on the Internet. The most popular browsers today are: Opera, Mozilla, Internet Explorer. The latest browser is already built into the operating system. We open a browser and enter the site address into the address bar. To search for information by word or sentence, go to the site of search engines and enter a query in a special line. In many browsers, there is a special line to the right of the address bar that allows you to process the request in the corresponding search engine. Therefore, you can enter what you are looking for there.
