Just when you have thought that you've seen it all.

Just yesterday, I was assisting a long-time user with a simple task but for
the task to complete, the user needed to log off and back on to her computer.

It was as though I was asking her to do the impossible!  There I was, speaking
with someone who's job for the last 20 years, involved 8x5+ interaction with
her PC and this user had NO IDEA that she could simply LOG OFF of a
computer!!!

No, not Windows 10 (yet) This was on Windows 7 where the option is still 'Log
off' and not 'Sign Out'

I was flabbergasted!

Anyway, in the next 6 months, when we upgrade her PC, she'll be faced with
WIndows 10. Something tells me that my Helpdesk team will have their hands
full.
