Saving Files:
After you login with your name on the computers on campus you will find a connection to your folder on our server. (open "my computer" and verify that you see "G" your first initial and last name.) This folder can only be accessed by you while you are on campus. This is a safe place to keep your files. You can connect to this folder from any computer on campus as long as you login as yourself.

Other options are:

  • A USB flash drive (becoming very inexpensive) Recommended by the Manor IT department!
  • Email yourself a copy of your work.

It's important to know that anything changed or saved to the hard drive of any computer on campus will not be there after the computer is restarted.
