The computer brings to life many additional opportunities for business, dating, creativity and self-realization. It's hard to imagine modern life without him. How quickly you can learn a computer depends only on the user.
Instructions
Step 1
When turning on the computer with the Power button, remember that the most important thing in mastering it is practice and understanding that the whole procedure and principle of actions when working on a PC is based on logic. Mindless repetition of the commands you read in the self-help guide may help develop reflexes, but a deliberate approach will allow you to more efficiently perform various tasks.
Step 2
Learn to use the mouse with confidence and practice typing more often. The keyboard and mouse are the basic tools for executing all commands on a PC. Become familiar with the items found on the desktop and in the Start menu. At the very beginning, you can ask your friends to remove unnecessary shortcuts from the desktop that can confuse you.
Step 3
Open any folder and examine the controls located in the upper right corner of the window. Check out the commands available on the top menu bar. The interface of most programs is similar, so using the folder as an example, you can get an idea of what actions can be performed and what elements can be configured in various applications.
Step 4
Once you get the hang of it, customize your desktop in such a way as not to waste time performing unnecessary actions: create shortcuts to quickly launch programs and connect to the Internet. At the same time, change the desktop background and the appearance of the icons to your liking. The redesign won't hurt the system if you do something wrong, but it will give you a better understanding of how to work with the various components.
Step 5
From programs, first of all, master a text and graphic editor, as well as any Internet browser. Carefully read the names of the tools on the panels and think logically: in order, for example, to insert page numbers into a document, it makes no sense to look for the necessary tool in the section of tables, tables of contents or links.
Step 6
Don't ignore tips and instructions. Use tutorials and video tutorials to master multifunctional and complex programs. Be sure to practice what you see or read about. Considering that the same action can be performed in several ways, try all of them and try to immediately determine how you are more comfortable working. And don't worry if you can't remember everything at once, the experience will come with time.
