Windows 10 training video for staff

[thimon]

Hi guys. Just wanted to share our Windows 10 training video that I've made. It's only a brief video that skips any in depth working, it's meant for the day to day stuff and to reassure staff that Windows 10 isn't "completely" different to Windows 7. There will be full Windows 10 training for staff come the new academic year. What are all your plans?

i keep debating getting something like an legato and recording various simple tasks and putting how to videos on the web server/file server along with the pdf files I do full of pictures I just don't think the effort involved would be worth it as I expect almost nobody would watch them

Nice video! How did you make the 8-bit 'jingle' section?

 

I've started putting training videos together using Powerpoint/Office Mix and I'm in the process of making a 'training' site in 365 using sharepoint. The idea being staff complete the 'quizzes' at the end of the video and this goes against their professional development. How well-adopted this will be remains to be seen, but I've had positive feedback from those who have seen it so far.

How did you add your school logo to the login screen?

Group Policy, replace the files in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\ with ones of your own. Bit of trial and error to find the right ones that relate to the main image.

This is what I already do in Windows 7, so I tried replicating it in Windows 10 to no avail.

 

What dimensions do I need my picture to be? Size?

Just take the images at C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\ and edit them, keeping the original dimensions.
