MVCS Laptop Sign-in Instructions

Background
These instructions are for syncing your user account and password with the MVCS network. They assume you
are in the office or on-campus and within range of the MVCS private wireless network

Notes
If you are working outside the office, the laptop will not sync files or password changes. When out of the
office, continue to sign in with the same username & password as you have been using. You cannot switch
user accounts when outside the office

Procedure
In order to properly sync your account with a Windows 10 MVCS laptop while at the office, do the following:
1. Power up the laptop. If you are already signed in to the laptop, check that you are connected to a
work private wireless network (see below), and then sign out of the laptop. To Sign out, click on the
Start menu, then click on the user icon at the top of the start menu, then choose Sign Out

2. Before signing back in, check the wireless connection icon on the welcome / login screen and
make sure you are connected to your work wireless network. At the main campus, the network should
be either the mvcs-private or mvcs-staff. At other locations (such as Connect, Daybreak, Family
Center, Thrift shop, Recovery or Support Center) connect to the wireless network that contains the
word private. Make sure you are NOT connected to a public network

3. Sign-in with your user name (first initial & last name) and your current password

Note: If you network password has expired, you may be prompted to change your password. If your
password has been changed by the admin staff, you must enter your current (new) password to sign in

If you cannot log in, try your last known password. Do not try more than 5 times or your account may
be locked out for 30 minutes

4. The recommended way to sync your user account settings is to login in, wait while your account loads,
and then sign off the computer. This will save your current setting to the server

Another way to check the progress of the sync is to login and locate the Sync Center tool in the system
tray. This is in the lower right-corner (near the clock). Click on the white triangle, then double-click the
Sync Center icon

In the Sync Center, you can check the status of the synced files:
From here, you can also right-click and start a sync

Summary
To ensure your account settings & profile has synced correctly, the following has to happen:
a) Laptop is connected to one of the MVCS private wireless networks
b) User successfully logged in with current (active) windows password
c) User logged off and settings properly backed up

If you see warnings about your roaming profile not syncing completely, you should sign out, logon a 2 nd
time, wait a minute, and then sign out. This should ensure the settings have synced

Once you synced successfully, you can take the laptop back out of the office and work remotely

Remember that you cannot change to another user account unless you bring the laptop back into the
office and within range of the private wireless

NOTE:
If switching laptops, be sure to sync the old laptop using these instructions. Then log off the old laptop
and login to the new laptop. Your settings & preferences should then load to the new laptop correctly
