Q

How would you change your computer name, workgroup, or join a domain?

A
  1. Open the System Control Panel window.
  2. In the Computer name, domain, and workgroup
    settings, click Change Settings.
  3. In the Computer name tab of the System Properties
    window, click Change.
  4. Make the desired change.
  5. Click OK. If you’re joining a domain, you’ll be
    prompted for a user name and password. This isn’t
    asking for the local user’s credentials, but rather of a
    domain administrator with permission to join users to
    the domain.
  6. Restart your computer for the changes to take
    effect.
