PC Help

• The main HELP system is accessed by clicking on START (at the lower left of your screen) and then HELP. Typically, HELP contains CONTENTS (a list of topics that you can click on to expand for details), and INDEX (type the first letters of a command or concept, and FIND (search for information associated with a keyword). When a specific topic is displayed, always click on HELP TOPICS in the upperleft corner to get back to the main help menu.

• Each individual window usually has a help topic near the upper right corner, as does each application, such as Notepad or MS WORD. Many HELP buttons activate the general windows help, but some applications, such as WORD contain help about that specific application.
