                           unless you’re at work, under the watchful eye of a professional IT
                           person who will control many of your computer’s settings. (In that

                           case, choose “Set up for an organization.”) Then hit Next.

                           Sign in with Microsoft. Enter the email address you’ve registered
                           as your Microsoft account (“Local Accounts vs. Microsoft

                           Accounts”); if you don’t have one, hit “Create account” to take
                           care of that essential task. Then hit Next.

                           appears only if your PC has a Windows Hello-compatible camera;

                           Set up a PIN. Set up a personal identification number (see “The
                           Four-Digit Passcode (PIN)” for background); a four-digit number
                           and your password is much more secure than just a password. Hit

                           “Set a PIN,” enter your chosen code twice, and then hit OK.

                           Link your phone and your PC. See “AutoPlay” for details. Hit

                           “Do it later” to pass for now, or enter your number, hit Next, and
                           finish that setup process.


                           Protect your files with OneDrive. Windows is asking if you want
                           to set up OneDrive as your automatic backup system. A nice idea,
                           if you’ve got the space. Hit “Only save files to this PC” if you
                           decline; otherwise, hit Next.
