How to setup a new Windows computer

All Macbooks just need to be logged into with your email address and Microsoft password. Most computer setup will be done automatically.

Instructions - Concise text version:
  • Setup your Mac with the options of your choosing.
  • Connect to the Internet. If in the office, log into "efc Personal" Wifi with the password "UseRubex1!"
  • Login with your email address and Microsoft password. You will need to do this several times during the setup process.
  • Login to iCloud using your eFileCabinet email address and Microsoft password.
  • Set a secure computer password.
  • Configure your preferred settings. 
  • You must enable Filevault when you are prompted.
  • Chrome, Slack, Zoom, and Company portal will be installed automatically. This usually takes 5-10 minutes but can be longer on slower Internet connections.
