# 1995 VHS • Video Professor Microsoft Windows 60 FPS

A Video Professor series tape covering Windows 3.1 basics, including the Program Manager, Main group programs, and Accessories. The tape opens explaining the distinction between program item icons and group icons, then covers window elements (control box, title bar, scroll bars, minimize, maximize, and restore buttons). Mouse techniques include single click, double-click, and drag for resizing and moving windows. Menus are accessed with the mouse or keyboard (Alt plus the underscored letter), and dialog boxes are demonstrated using the run command and browse button. Program Manager features include cascade and tile window arrangements. Main group programs covered in depth include the Control Panel (color, fonts, ports, mouse, desktop, keyboard, printers, international, date and time, drivers, and sound), Print Manager, and File Manager (directory tree, drive switching, copying files by drag and drop, deleting and renaming, View menu sort options, and the move vs copy distinction). The MS-DOS prompt covers full-screen toggle with Alt+Enter, the toolbar for font changes and clipboard operations, and Alt+Tab to switch programs. The Accessories section covers Write (editing, fonts, alignment, ruler tabs, cut, copy, paste, and undo) and Paintbrush (all toolbox tools, color palette, and clipboard paste between programs).
