PC workstations
Introduction
The computers in the reading room are freely accessible to all visitors.
Services
We offer the following services:
- Virtual desktop with Microsoft Windows operating system
- Free internet access
- Printing facilities (please check the requirements before using for the first time)
- Use of your own USB stick to save data
Logging in and out on the PC
Log in using your EUV account (e.g. euv9999) or the login credentials provided at the workstation.
Don’t forget to log out!
Always log out via “File” → “Exit”.
Otherwise, the virtual desktop may remain active for a while — allowing others to access your session and personal data.
Back up data before logging off
Please remember to save your documents externally
(e.g. on a USB stick, in the cloud, or by email).
No data can be stored on the virtual desktop beyond the current session.
After logging out, all settings are reset and any personal data is automatically deleted.
No software installation
You cannot install your own programmes because:
- no administrator rights are granted
- the virtual desktop is reset after each logout
