Windows 11 Tutorial for Beginners: Windows 11 Crash Course!

In this Windows 11 training tutorial for beginners, we show you how to Download Windows 11, how to Install Windows 11, and what your system requirements need to be for you to be able to do so. We then look at some of the main changes such as the Windows 11 Taskbar and Start Menu and how you can Pin Items. Of course, we won’t forget about Personalizing your Desktop with some fancy new desktop backgrounds available.

We also show you how to use Search and this cool feature called Multiple Desktops, which is like having several virtual desktops. We move on to Windows 11 Widgets and Snap Layouts before going over Taskbar Settings and Quick Settings. We also talk about using File Explorer and the changes made in Microsoft Store. We round it off by going over some built-in Applications such as Teams and Edge.

This is the best Wins 11 overview I have watched so far! I’m getting a new laptop and wanted to know what to expect. Thanks for keeping it simple. 😊

opening another explorer window !! hover over folder and rt clk and a menu appears is easier than clicking on 'file explorer' and its specific for the item you want. choose new tab or new window etc.

But how do we set up our PIN number to log into or new PC???

Not a verry informative tutorial when helping my 70yr old mom who is trying to switch from Apple to Windows for the first time. Not at all.

But I do love the new Win 11 myself. But I already know how to navigate Microsoft products on an advanced level.
But I do want to take a nap after watching this Video.

The worst software of all time, Windows 11 should be quickly withdrawn. Windows 10 is better

This is a breach of monopoly legislation and cartel in the UK and Europe.

Europe will require in the future any hardware sold to be independent of any operating system. To be clear all hardware will only be legally operational in Europe if its capabable without modification to run five or more independent operating systems and software.

The maximum of 39 % of sales in retail can be attributed to any one operating system or closed source eco system.

The UK has claimed that due to the cyber war in the Euro area it needs to be in the national security interests to discontinue the use of windows 11 or other similar system on all hardware due to data protection and security legislation. The UK has learned from the Ukrainian war that it must build up defensive capability in a unstable worldwide environment.

The UK claims over 300 alternative operating system which negates relience on operating system and harware which is control of third party states, criminal organisations, non friendly powers, or terrorist organisations.

The chineese consider a windows eco system to be a national security threat and will be moving to linux by 2026. All hardware built in china will likely be not be compatable with windows after this date.

Across Europe windows 11 is the death nail for windows as a company.
