Taking photos has become a normal part of our lives and these days we don't even think twice about it since we can take a picture any time, any place with our smartphones. Most people don't even own a camera anymore since our phones do such a good job of taking photos. Google Photos allows you to upload your pictures and even videos to their online storage repository so you can use it as a backup and a way to share photos with other people without needing to send them as an email attachment. You can also create and share photo albums with others just by sending them a link. And if you want printed copies of your pictures, you can order them from Photos as well.

*Updated for 2023 with VMware Workstation version 17 information.* Information Technology has come a long way in the past 10 years and one of the greatest advancements in this field has to be that of virtualizing computers and servers in order to save IT administrators a lot of time and their companies a lot of money when it comes to building their backend systems. And now we can even go beyond virtualizing computers and virtualize our networks as well.Because virtualization allows us to run multiple computers (virtual machines) on one piece of hardware it makes it's easy to set up multiple systems quickly and also allows a way for us to set up "test" systems that we can use for our labs to test out new software and operating systems. Then when we are done, we simply wipe out that test system and it was like it was never there.Since virtualization is so common within organizations, it was just a matter of time before it was implemented on a smaller scale so we could use it on our desktops. Now we have software like VMware Workstation Pro which allows us to create multiple virtual machines within one physical machine (your desktop computer) and even let them communicate with each other via their virtual networks.The goal of this book is to get you up and running with VMware Workstation and cover all the things you need to know to get you started on creating virtual machines and a virtualized environment without confusing you at the same time. It sticks with the basics yet covers a wide variety of topics to help you achieve your goals and get your VMs up and running in no time. This book has some advanced topics but is not a super high level book on VMware Workstation.The chapters in the book cover the following topics: Chapter 1 - Virtualization OverviewChapter 2 - Installing VMware WorkstationChapter 3 - The VMware Workstation InterfaceChapter 4 - Creating a Virtual MachineChapter 5 - Virtual Machine SettingsChapter 6 - NetworkingChapter 7 - Snapshots & CloningChapter 8 - Preferences & ExtrasAbout the AuthorJames Bernstein has been working with various companies in the IT field for over 20 years, managing technologies such as SAN and NAS storage, VMware, backups, Windows Servers, Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, Networking, Microsoft Office, Exchange, and more.He has obtained certifications from Microsoft, VMware, CompTIA, ShoreTel, and SNIA, and continues to strive to learn new technologies to further his knowledge on a variety of subjects.He is also the founder of the website OnlineComputerTips.com, which offers its readers valuable information on topics such as Windows, networking, hardware, software, and troubleshooting.

These days everyone has a desktop computer, laptop, or at least a device such as a smartphone or a tablet that they use to do things such as go online, send emails, and so on. And for the people who use a personal computer at home or at work, then there is a very good chance that it is running Microsoft Windows and if it's not, then you are most likely using a Mac and are reading the wrong book! When Windows 10 first came out, Microsoft has said that it would be the last version of their desktop operating system and that they would just continue to update it and add new features rather than come out with new versions. But now that Windows 11 is out, that proves what many of us always believed, that there would eventually be a replacement for Windows 10. And when a company releases new software, they feel the need to change things around to make it look like it has been "upgraded" but many times, they are making changes just to justify calling it new! The goal of this book is to help you get the most out of your Windows 11 computer and make you a more proficient computer user. I will cover the basics (in detail) to better help you understand how to do things like open programs, locate your files, customize your desktop, install apps and games, browse the internet, navigate the Windows Start menu and more. I always like to take a step-by-step approach so users at any skill level will be able to follow along. I will also include many screenshots to help you see what I am discussing in case you want to follow along on your own computer.
