In this step your new device will be provided with important settings, apps and software.
Start your device – the setup usually takes only a few minutes. Sometimes this time adds up to 30 minutes (depending on your internet connection and installed software).
Choose your region e. g. „United States“ and confirm with „Yes“.
This setting sets your system language to your desired language and is also responsible for some country-specific settings.
Choose your desired keyboard layout e. g. „US“ and confirm with „Yes“.
This step determines the keyboard layout to the country-specific layout.
You are able to add a second keyboard layout. This is helpful, if you use two keyboards (e. g. „German“ and „English“). If you don’t need this, click „Skip“.
Now the setup of your device starts. This may take a few minutes. Please wait until your device is ready. An automatic reboot may be performed.

Now it’s halftime.
Time for a short break.
During your break your device is setting up your workspace. Usually this step only takes a few minutes, sometimes it can take up to 30 minutes.
Make sure your device is connected to the power supply and internet.
Your device will perform a restart and finish the configuration settings.
You are almost ready.
Now you have to configure „Windows Hello“ with a PIN.
„Windows Hello“ is a personal and secure way to access your Windows devices by the help of a personal identification number (PIN).
Choose your PIN. The Number must be at least 8 digits. You can decide if you want to add letters and symbols. If you don’t check this box, only numbers are allowed.
All Set. From now on, you will be able to sign in on your device with your PIN.
The setup has finished successfully. Please login to your device with your credentials.
Now your desktop shows up. At first, software is installed in the background. Give your device 15 minutes to sync. Then restart and log in again.
Done. You have successfully activated your device.
Continue with step 2.
Now we are ready to transfer our saved data on to our new device. Depending on your choice in step 2 please continue with:
4.1 Transfer from OneDrive for Business
4.2 Transfer from USB-Stick/external storage
In order to restore your saved data, there has to be a connection to OneDrive. This happens automatically. You can check, if synchonization is done by clicking the yellow folder in the bar at the bottom of your screen. Your OneDrive should be desplayed in the left menubar of your file explorer.
Connect your data storage, where you just saved your data, with your new device. Copy all your data on your new device.
Individual software, which is needed to work productively, can be installed via the app „Company Portal“. There you can find an overview of apps, which are already installed on your device and apps, which are available for download.
