Study Notes
Operating Systems Overview
- Desktop and mobile operating systems both feature a graphical user interface (GUI) designed for user interaction.
- Systems are optimized to manage limited resources like memory, processing power, and battery life.
Managing Windows in Windows 10
- Windows can be closed using various methods:
- Right-clicking on taskbar button and selecting Close window.
- Clicking the Close button in the upper-right corner of the window.
- Clicking the Close button on the window's thumbnail on the taskbar.
- The Windows 10 Snap feature allows quick maximization of a window's height.
File System Basics
- The root directory is the main list containing files and folders on the drive.
- Data files are user-manipulable files, in contrast to executable files, which contain instructions for the computer.
System Software Categories
- System software is categorized into utilities and operating systems.
- Uninstaller utilities are used to remove programs and applications from a computer.
File Sharing and System Resources
- A network operating system is not necessary for file sharing among PCs.
- Examples of computer system resources include CPU, hard disk drive, and printers.
File Management and Operations
- The Save button does not guarantee saving a file to the hard drive; certain conditions can redirect saves.
- Virtual machines allow the operation of multiple operating systems on a single computer.
- A standard file format does not restrict access to only the application that created it, allowing versatility in file handling.
Compression and Desktop Customization
- File compression is beneficial for emailing large files, creating archives, and saving storage space.
- File and app icons can be placed on the desktop in operating systems such as Microsoft Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Printing and Disk Utilities
- The operating system manages multiple print jobs through a process known as spooling.
- Disk utilities enhance system performance and help manage file storage efficiently.
