Chapter 4: Working With Windows CE 5.0

The Desktop Icons

Note: If the arrow keys do not highlight the desktop icons, the desktop may not be selected. Press [FN/BLUE] [.] (period) to display the Start Menu, and select Desktop. Now the desktop will be “in focus” and the arrow keys will highlight the icons.

4.3.1The Desktop Icons

Note: NEOs are equipped with the Windows CE 5.0 Core OS do not include Internet Explorer, Wordpad or Remote Desktop.

The icons displayed in the startup desktop operate in much the same way as those displayed on any standard PC desktop that is running Windows.

My Device

Choosing this icon displays the contents of your NEO computer. If you’re not sure how to access the files, folders and programs displayed, refer to “Working With Files, Folders And Programs” on page 50.

Recycle Bin

This option temporarily stores items that were deleted, allowing you to either permanently delete or restore these items.

Internet Explorer

Choosing this icon launches Internet Explorer—a standard Windows CE 5.0 version. Keep in mind that your supervisor will need to set up access using the Internet Options and the

Network and Dial-up Connections icons in the Control Panel.

Microsoft WordPad

Microsoft WordPad is a basic word processor used to create, edit, view and print text documents.

Remote Desktop Connection

This option allows your NEO to communicate with a remote desktop PC. “Remote Con- nect” on page 71 provides a website with step-by-step instructions.
