About the Windows environment
After your computer starts, the first screen you see is the Windows desktop. The desktop
is like the top of a real desk. Think of the desktop as your personalized work space where
you open programs and perform other tasks.
Your desktop may be different from this example, depending on how your computer is
set up.
