Windows 7 for Dummies [antikvár]

Introduction W. elcome to Windows 7 For Dummies, the world's best-selling book about Windows 7! This book's popularity probably boils down to this simple fact: Some people want to be Windows whizzes. They love Interacting with dialog boxes. Some randomly press keys in the hope of discovering hidden, undocumented features. A few memorize long strings of computer commands while washing their hair. And you? Well, you're no dummy, that's for sure. But when it comes to Windows and computers, the fascination just isn't there. You want to get your work done, stop, and move on to something more important. You have no intention of changing, and there's nothing wrong with that. That's where this book comes in handy. Instead of making you a whiz at Windows, it merely dishes out chunks of useful computing information when you need them. Instead of becoming a Windows 7 expert, you'll know just enough to get by quickly, cleanly, and with a minimum of pain so that you can move on to the more pleasant things in life. About This Book Don't try to read this book in one sitting; there's no need. Instead, treat this book like a dictionary or an encyclopedia. Turn to the page with the information you need and say, "Ah, so that's what they're talking about." Then put down the book and move on. Don't bother trying to memorize all the Windows 7 jargon, such as Select the Menu Item from the Drop-Down List Box. Leave that stuff for the computer enthusiasts. In fact, if anything technical comes up in a chapter, a road sign warns you well in advance. Depending on your mood, you can either slow down to read it or speed on around it. Instead of fancy computer jargon, this book covers subjects like these, all discussed in plain English: y Keeping your computer safe and secure y Finding, starting, and closing programs Locating the file you saved or downloaded yesterday
