Sharing Resources on a Network
Windows 10's sharing and discovery make it relatively easy to share resources and discover them. This chapter focuses on the “sharing” part. Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10 include a public folder from which files are shared automatically. Windows 10 includes three methods for sharing resources, each of which has its own advantages. These methods are homegroups, workgroup, and domain. The chapter explains these different methods. A first step on each computer is to make sure sharing and discovery are enabled and all computers belong to the same workgroup. When user first connects to a new network, Windows asks if user want to enable sharing. If the connection is a private one, such as user's own wireless network at home, choose the option to turn on sharing by opening the Network and Sharing Center applet from the Control Panel and then clicking the Change Advanced Sharing Settings link.
Book Chapter
Creating a Small Office or Home Network
Windows 10 includes features that remove the complexities commonly associated with network configurations. This chapter describes how to configure Windows for different types of hardware setups. To create a local area network (LAN), user needs a plan and special hardware to make that plan work. For one thing, each computer needs a device known as a network interface card (NIC) or Ethernet card. Windows 10 will detect the hardware and start the setup automatically. Ethernet LANs provide the fastest speeds but require running special Ethernet cables. Wireless networking provides complete freedom from cables and wires. On a notebook computer, user can use a PC Card NIC, USB NIC, or an integrated wireless network card to connect to the network. The main trick to wireless networking is setting up the access point. This is done by configuring one computer with a static IP address and connecting it to the access point with a wired connection.
Book Chapter
Customizing Startup Options
This chapter is about controlling exactly which programs and services do, and don't, start automatically when users first start their computer and Windows. By controlling these programs, they can streamline the Windows startup and fix problems with performance or function. The chapter focuses primarily on legacy Windows programs rather than new Windows modern apps. If users always use a certain program when they start their computer, they can configure Windows to start that program automatically. One tool that has existed in multiple versions of Windows that lets users control program startup is the System Configuration program. That program is also available in Windows 10. Windows 10 includes a system management framework tool called the Microsoft Management Console (MMC). The MMC provides access to various snap‐ins, with each snap‐in providing options for different configurations or an interface to manage items such as policies, accounts, and so on. One of these snap‐ins is named Services.msc.
Book Chapter
Installing and Removing Hardware
This chapter is about connecting, installing, and removing hardware. A typical computer consists of hardware, firmware, and software. This chapter discusses each of these components with a focus on installing and removing hardware in Windows 10. A device driver is a program that serves as an intermediary between a piece of hardware and an application or the operating system. For example, a display driver enables Windows 10 to communicate with and control the computer's display. Many modern hardware devices are hot‐pluggable, which means user simply connect them to the computer and start using them. Hot‐pluggable devices generally connect to the computer through Universal Serial Bus (USB), IEEE 1392, or PC Card. The chapter covers some general issues concerning hard disks. All these operations pose some risk of data loss and should be attempted only by people who understand the risks and are confident they have backups of all important data.
