If you\u2019re heading off to university, you\u2019ll probably be expected to have some level of experience with Microsoft Windows and Office software, whether that means writing a guide to Iceland<\/a> as an assignment in Word or creating a presentation on Powerpoint. These programs are typically used in every field of study, from history to psychology to science and beyond. Here are eight tips on how to use Microsoft Windows to your advantage at university.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7 Ways to Use Microsoft Windows for University Success<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1) Create a Microsoft account<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don’t have a Microsoft account, the first thing you should do is create one. Not only will it make accessing your files and settings much easier, but it will give you the option of connecting other online accounts with your new profile. You can also sync your calendar so that it stays up-to-date on all devices. Finally, use OneDrive to store documents on a secure server so that they are always accessible no matter what device you’re using. You’ll need to install the app on each device and then sign in to see your files. Then, when opening a document from OneDrive<\/a>, it will automatically open in Word or Excel depending on which program you’ve set as default.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) Backup your files in OneDrive<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the best things about OneDrive, outside of being able to open it remotely, is how good it is for backing up files. Set yourself up with a personal OneDrive account and make frequent backups of your important files. Being online can help ensure that you’re able to access your files when you need them, whether on the go or in the office. And even if there’s no WiFi connection available, you’ll still have a copy on your computer. If your computer ever gets stolen or broken, all of your files will also be stored in the cloud so you won’t lose any data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) Link OneDrive with Office Online and Outlook<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

OneDrive is one of the many tools Microsoft offers that will help you get more done on the go. When you link OneDrive with Office Online and Outlook<\/a>, you’ll be able to access your files anytime, anywhere. This will also allow you to share your documents with a group of people who need access to it. You can create an online document from within OneDrive and choose how long you want it to stay open before disappearing forever. You can also upload multiple photos at once, which will automatically upload them in order so you don’t have to do this manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4) Take notes on your desktop in OneNote<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the key things you have to learn for university is how to use your computer well. With your computer being such an integral part of your university life, you need it working quickly and efficiently. Luckily, there are a lot of ways that students can utilise Microsoft Windows to make their work faster and easier. For instance, taking notes on your desktop with OneNote. As a student, it’s important to have lots of notes available at all times. It’s easy to forget what you’re doing when you’re switching between homework assignments and classes. That’s why taking notes on the desktop with OneNote is so productive as they’re all in one place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5) Manage all your tasks in Wunderlist<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s not unheard of for people at university to have five classes and 15+ assignments. The best way to stay on top of everything? Wunderlist. This easy-to-use app helps you create and manage to-do lists, task lists, notes, reminders, all while syncing across your phone, tablet, and computer. It’s free on desktop and mobile devices. With a friendly design that lets you input tasks with just a few taps, it’s so easy to use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

6) Stay organised with Office 365 Planner<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Setting up Planner<\/a> is a must if you want a centralised location where you can store all of your deadlines. Planner helps you keep track of your assignments and deadlines, share projects with others, and even set up notifications. From courses to campus events, Planner will show you everything that is on your calendar. You don’t have to just keep up with deadlines, you can set reminders and get them synced automatically with your calendar. Plus, one of the best features is that Planner can sync with other apps like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. With this app you\u2019ll be able to stay ahead of the game in your classes and stay organised during the semester. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

7) Video chat from anywhere using Skype<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re in a different country or city, maybe you are taking road trips<\/a> with your family, then video chatting with your friends or classmates through Skype can be very useful. Plus, because Skype is free to download and use, this isn’t a big financial risk on your part.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tips on how to use Microsoft Windows to your advantage at university.","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":523,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[18,26],"class_list":{"0":"post-522","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-windows-tips","8":"tag-microsoft","9":"tag-windows","10":"cs-entry","11":"cs-video-wrap"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/windowscommunity.fr\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/522"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/windowscommunity.fr\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/windowscommunity.fr\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windowscommunity.fr\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windowscommunity.fr\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=522"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/windowscommunity.fr\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/522\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":524,"href":"https:\/\/windowscommunity.fr\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/522\/revisions\/524"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windowscommunity.fr\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/523"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/windowscommunity.fr\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=522"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windowscommunity.fr\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=522"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/windowscommunity.fr\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=522"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
