Windows 10: Initial Setup for Graduating Students
Setting up Windows 10 on Graduating Students' Laptops.
After you receive your reimaged laptop, you will need to run an initial setup. This process will be the same as a “Windows Out of Box Experience”. Please follow these steps:
1. Run through initial setup windows (Region, Keyboard, Etc.)
2. Windows will check for updates. This may take a while. Do not turn off your laptop.
3. IMPORTANT: Set up your Account. Choose Set up for personal use.
4. Sign in with Microsoft. You will have three options:
Option 1: Sign in with your
personal Microsoft account (not your UW-Stout Account)
Option 2: Create a new
personal Microsoft account
Option 3: Use an Offline
account
If you choose Offline account, the next screen will still encourage you to create an account. Click No to continue.
5. Complete setup to personalize your laptop. (Cortana, Privacy, Etc.)
