Software Center allows you to install applications via an easy to use interface. Software Center is similar to a free app store wherein you select the applications you would like, and they download directly to your computer without the need for additional passwords, permissions, or a technician on-site.

Using Software Center

  1. Click the Windows button in the lower left.
