How to Access the SHAREDRIVE from your personal laptop or computer.

For years, NICAP interns have longed for access to the sharedrive from computers that were not hardwired into the QI office. Today you can. The following is a stepwise protocol for making your life easier as a NICAP intern! For those who use Macs, the protocol will be a little different, but still straight forward.

WINDOWS

A. Determine the version, build, and bit-version of windows you are running. a. Navigate to the START and click it open. b. Open up Windows Explorer (aka, File Explorer) c. Go to My Computer (aka This PC) d. Right-Click My Computer and select properties. The following window should appear

In this example, I am running Windows 10 Education. This is a 64-bit version of Windows.

B. Determine if your device has encryption enabled. Devices that are running WINDOWS 10 PRO, WINDOWS 10 EDUCATION, or WINDOWS 10 ENTERPRISE have BitLocker already installed and/or enabled in the computer.

If you are running WINDOWS 10 HOME or WINDOWS 10 S or any other version, you will not have BitLocker enabled.

a. To determine if you have bitlocker enabled, Go to Start. Search "BitLocker". "Manage BitLocker" option should come up. You need to select it. The corresponding window should open, titled `BitLocker Drive Encryption'.

b. If it says `BitLocker is On', then there is nothing else you need to do in terms of drive encryption. If it does not say bit locker is on, then you will have to turn it on when you are not using your computer for time sensitive projects. (turn it on and let it encrypt your drive at night, it will take a few hours and you wont be able to use you computer as efficiently)

c. I DON'T HAVE WINDOWS 10 PRO, ENTERPRISE, EDUCATION. WHAT SHOULD I DO? i. You will need to download a product key from the UF webstore for Windows 10 Education. 1. Open your web browser an type in the following address: 2. You will be prompted to login using GatorLink. 3. A page will appear that will show your eligibility for certain software licenses. This page is sometimes not accurate. All UF students have access to Windows 10 Education.

4. Scroll down to ` Eligible, take me to OnTheHub'. Click on this link and this will take you to the portal where you will access the new key

5. Select Windows 10 link

6. Select add to cart. And then you should select the product key download link that is provided to you. Be advised, each student is only allowed ONE key. You will also have to put in your customer number and name as the signature. That information is under the fill-in fields.
