In the PC room you will find 8 Windows10 PCs for students' working tasks. After login you can
change the language for the user interface and Microsoft Office. See below
To login you select "pGina" and enter your account data of Uni Bremen (ZfN). Username: The real username (no alias) WITHOUT @uni-bremen.de ; Password: Your Uni-Bremen password.
After logging in you might get a window from "PC Sheriff": "Sie haben das System zu einem anderen Snapshot ..." . Recommended Action: "Abbruch"
The default language of the PCs is German. You can change the language later, but first you have to answer general settings in German. You can check and change the settings later if you like. We recommend to set the information submission to Microsoft to the lowest possible values: (The questions/options might have changed)
"Mehr mit Spracheingaben ausführen": Select Online-Spracherkennung nicht verwenden , press Annehmen
"Microsoft und Apps den Standort verwenden lassen": Nein, press Annehmen
"Freihand und Eingabe verbessern": Nein, press Annehmen
"Mithilfe von Diagnosedaten ... erhalten": Nein, press Annehmen
"Apps Werbe-ID ... lassen": Nein, press Annehmen
Language settings
The default language of the PCs is German. If you want to change the language for you:
In the lower left corner of the screen, right of the Windows-Button type into the area (Suchbegriff hier eingeben): spracheinstellungen press ENTER
A new window will open, and in the lower part:
In the Section "Bevorzugte Sprache" click "Sprache hinzufügen"
Select the language you want - "Weiter" - "Als meine Anzeigesprache festlegen" - "Installieren"
Wait for the installation to finish
Click on the Windows button , click the user symbol , select "Abmelden"
Log in again.
Language settings for MS Office: (Currently only on PCs 2,3,5,6,7,8 )
In the list of programs select: "Microsoft Office 2016-Tools" - "Office 2016-Spracheinstellungen"
In the next window select English in the fields you like:
Click "Ja" on questions if you want to change (Die neue, von Ihnen ... fortsetzen?) and "OK" for "Bitte starten Sie Office neu ..." .
Starting MS Office again might ask you "First things first". Select "Ask me later" and "Accept".
Remote access via VNC
Remote access to some PCs is possible. You can get the required information from your lecturer. Please be aware: Some programs, especially Microsoft Office have unusual license forms. Therefore, you are allowed to use MS Office on our
PCs only, if
you work directly in the computer lab at the PC , or
you own a corresponding Microsoft Office license for the device you are using for remote access (PC running Windows/Linux/Mac, Android smartphone ...)
Daily reset
The Windows partitions "C:" are protected .
The PCs do a reboot at night time automatically. This results in a reset to a predifined status of drive "C:". All other data on C: drive are lost,
currently including your user settings and data. Therefore, you have to redo the settings procedure every day.
Access to file server / permanent data storage:
(8 June 2020)
To store data permanently or to exchange with other PCs you can use the network share
\\134.102.241.56\YOUR_USERNAME . This is the same location as Z: .
We strongly recommend to save all your data additionally on personal media daily (like USB drives or via Internet, e.g.
seafile.zfn.uni-bremen.de). For important data you should have at least two independent copies!
Personal folders
Every PC has two drives (D: and E:) , which are not cleaned automatically. Therefore, you can use them to store and use your data for several days.
You will find your personal folders within D:\user E:\user
As D: and E: are not cleaned automatically we strongly ask you to clean up yourself. If the drives get full we have to clean up otherwise.
Access to data on the old file server:
Users with accounts of 2019 or before can copy their data from the old file server:
Open File Explorer and type into the "Quick access" field:
\\134.102.241.60
In the window "Enter network credentials": "More choices" - "Use a different account"
"User name" : classroom\YOUR_CLASSROOM_USER_NAME with corresponding password - OK
profiles ...
user ....
If you like you can also use directly
\\134.102.241.60\profiles\$USER.V2
or
\\134.102.241.60\user\$USER
Please copy your data from the old to the new file server soon! The old server will be switched off.
