Windows 10: Any good free beginner courses for a senior...

My dad bought a laptop but he isn't picking a lot of stuff up. Maybe it's me and he would learn better from a course. Are there ant basic free classes that teach the basics of using a computer. Bonus if it includes basic internet usage.

Microsoft created free Python for Beginners course series

Probably the largest hurdle when learning any new programming language is simply knowing where to get started. This is why we, Chris and Susan, decided to create this series about Python for Beginners!

Even though we wont cover everything there is to know about Python in the course, we want to make sure we give you the foundation on programming in Python, starting from common everyday code and scenarios. At the end of the course, youll be able to go and learn on your own, for example with docs, tutorials, or books.

Win 10 and Seniors

I can't agree with the idea that seniors are not a tech savvy generation. Why not? A senior is just as intelligent as a younger person. And a young person can be just as computer-illiterate as an older person.

The most valuable skill that a computer user of any age needs to have is the ability to backup. With regular backups, computer problems are an inconvenience but never a crisis.

With Windows 10 in particular, computer users of all ages need to learn how to avoid being upgraded to Windows 10. This knowledge is available on the web for you to teach. For most people, installing the GWX Control Panel or Never10 ends that problem for
good.

So the one-two solution to avoid getting stuck with Windows 10 is:

• Restore a backup from before the upgrade.
• Install the utility to avoid the upgrade.

It's time for seniors to stop convincing themselves - or letting other people convince them - that they're too old to learn.
