Course Description
Windows 10 is a Microsoft operating system for tablets, personal computers, embedded devices and Internet of Things. Windows 10 has outranked Windows 7 as the most popular OS in the world. It holds more than 39% of the market share for desktop operating systems and runs on more than 700 million devices. Being able to administer a Windows machine is a key requirement for sysadmins as many businesses opt for Windows.

Beginning with a quick introduction to Windows 10, you’ll see how to install and optimize the operating system.

I was hoping the course gave more than just the basics. Would like to get deeper into trouble shooting common and advanced issues within the Windows environment. I've seem more detailed videos on troubleshooting on Youtube for free.

Kurset har et bra innhold. DERE MÅ GI MEG som elev MULIGHET TIL Å VELGE HASTIGHET PÅ PRESENTASJONEN !! Når presentasjonen går så fort at man ikke klarer å følge med på det som sies eller lese underteksten. Når skjermbildene skifter alt for fort mister man i tillegg utrolig mye informasjon og hele læreprosessen blir nesten umulig. Vennlig hilsen siv.ing. Bjørn Henning Hesthag

The information/training was great and I was able to learn more about Win 10 Administration. I feel that the instructor needs to slow down just a tad, there were times he would go to fast in talking and showing what he was doing on the computer.

Though concepts are presented quickly I am acquiring the background to leverage available documentation.

I really enjoy the way the content is presented. Although I have been in IT for a long time, I am finding that I knew very little, all of the information is very detailed, and the gentleman (sorry not good with names) is a great trainer.

The first few chapters were pretty simple, and I was starting to wonder if I'd wasted my money... but sections 4, 5 and especially 6 made this course worthwhile. I managed to learn some very useful things, and am glad to have taken this course. Thank you!
