Getting to Know Windows Millennium Edition Lesson 11: Setting the date and time 155 Sample Date/Time Properties dialog box HINT: To open the Date/Time Properties dialog box more quickly, either click the time display on the taskbar with the secondary button, then click Adjust Date/Time, or double- click the time display. 4 Set the correct month, year, day, and time. 5 Click the Time Zone drop-down list box and set your time zone. 6 Click OK. Continue with the next lesson to finish cleaning up the desktop. Getting to Know Windows Millennium Edition Lesson 12: Removing objects from the desktop 156 Lesson 12: Removing objects from the desktop Earlier in this tutorial, you created a new icon on the desktop. Since everything you have done to this point has been just practice, you may want to return the desktop back to its original uncluttered state. This lesson explains how to remove objects from the desktop and introduces the Recycle Bin. 1 Click the New Folder icon you created, drag it until it is over the Recycle Bin icon and it changes color, then release the primary button. The icon disappears. But, with Windows Millennium Edition, it is not really gone. It is merely set aside in the Recycle Bin so that you can restore or delete it later. 2 Repeat step 1 for any other icons you created during this tutorial. Each icon disappears as you drop it on the Recycle Bin. 3 Double-click the Recycle Bin icon. Windows Millennium Edition opens the Recycle Bin window. Notice that all the icons you dropped on the Recycle Bin are listed. Getting to Know Windows Millennium Edition Lesson 12: Removing objects from the desktop 157 Sample Recycle Bin open on the desktop To completely remove an object, select it, and then click File, Delete. The object is permanently deleted from the Recycle Bin. Later on—in your real work, not in this tutorial—you will use the Recycle Bin to delete other objects such as folders, documents, and sometimes even programs. Still, the process is the same. Just drag an object’s icon to the Recycle Bin. If you change your mind and want to restore an object you sent to the Recycle Bin, select the object with the secondary button and click Restore. Windows Millennium Edition restores the object to the place from which it was deleted. But when you are absolutely certain that you never want to see it again, delete it from the Recycle Bin. To delete everything from the Recycle Bin at once, choose Empty Recycle Bin from the File menu. Getting to Know Windows Millennium Edition Lesson 13: Using System Restore 158 HINT: Empty the Recycle Bin periodically. Even though an item is moved to the Recycle Bin, it still uses valuable space on the hard disk drive until it is deleted from the Recycle Bin. Lesson 13: Using System Restore The System Restore feature allows you to return your computer to the way it was configured on a specific date or time, a “restore point.” This is useful if you are reconfiguring your computer for new hardware or software. In the event that your hardware or software causes your computer to malfunction, you can remove the offending item(s) and restore the system to the state it was in at the preset time. To open System Restore, click Start, point to Programs, Accessories, System Tools and System Restore. The System Restore Welcome screen appears.

It also guides you through restoring your system to the selected date or time. Lesson 14: If I am lost, what do I do? This lesson teaches you how to use some of the Help features in Windows Millennium Edition. Windows Millennium Edition Help Windows Millennium Edition has an excellent Help facility. If you cannot figure out how to do something, the answer is probably only a few clicks away. Assume that you want to draw a picture but don’t know how. 1 If you have an application open, press F1, otherwise click Start, then click Help. Windows Millennium Edition opens the Help and Support window. 2 If you do not see the Index, click Index. Help and Support displays the Index. Sample Help and Support Index Getting to Know Windows Millennium Edition Lesson 14: If I am lost, what do I do? 160 The left side of the screen contains the index. The text box above the index, where the cursor is flashing, lets you type in a topic you want to find in the index. 3 Type pictures in the text box. Notice as you type that the corresponding location in the index appears. When you type the letter p, the topic list moves to the first entry that begins with P, and so on. There are a number of topics listed under Picture. One of them, “creating, editing with Paint,” looks promising. 4 Double-click creating, editing with Paint. Help opens a topic screen that gives a brief des...
