Saving WorkYou may have an M ‘drive’ this is where you can save your work, and is backed up nightly on the BRIT server.
Don’t save your work on the ‘C’ drive because you may not have the same computer again. ‘C’ drive is on the computer memory and is stored there until it is wiped.
Make double sure you have saved your work by putting it on a USB stick.
