December Monthly Maintenance



Here is a link to the monthly maintenance schedule for this month. We will be remoting into your computers during the scheduled time. Once we have remoted in, your screen will display this message: “This computer is in use and has been locked.” At this time, we have successfully remoted in to your laptop and have begun to perform the maintenance. Please DO NOT log back into your computer until you have received a phone call from a Tech Department member.


 


This month we will be connecting your Windows live email account to your outlook account so that you receive all your emails in one place. There will be a folder setup after we have performed the maintenance labeled Live.edu. All emails to your live.edu account will show up there.
