Laptop networking fix

March 21, 2023 by Ian Alaimo

If your laptop is having trouble connecting to Wi-Fi or the wired network when docked, a quick fix is to reset the network settings and then reboot. You’ll have to reauthenticate to Wi-Fi once rebooted. The issue can happen when going between wireless access points and docking/undocking.

Copy/Paste formatting

March 6, 2023 by Ian Alaimo

This tip might be obvious to most, but I know we’ve helped some that weren’t aware of it and were retyping entire documents.

 

There are many ways to copy/paste data in Windows, one of the easiest ways is to use the shortcut keys, CTRL + C to copy, CTRL + X to cut and CTRL + V to paste, also Windows key + V for paste history (in the clipboard)

You can also right click and select Paste options, this allows you to keep source formatting, merge formatting or use destination formatting. It can save lots of time when moving between items with different fonts or formatting styles.

Windows 11 – Upgrade

February 27, 2023 by Ian Alaimo

Windows 10 is scheduled to go end-of-life in October of 2025. This means Microsoft will no longer be providing support or security updates to this operating system. Due to this we’ll need to upgrade all computers in MCHHS to Windows 11 by this date. In general, any computer that’s about 5 years old or newer will support Windows 11.

If you’d like to get a jump start on the updated OS then please follow the directions below while on the campus network.

  • In Windows – Go to Search and type Software Center
  • Click Operating Systems
  • Click the OSD UPGRADE- Windows 11 Education x64
    • Make sure all programs are closed before starting
    • The process should take around 30-45 minutes
    • A couple reboots might required
    • No data or settings will be lost
