Windows 10 is coming!
Your computer will be upgraded to Windows 10 via one of the following: 1) Tech Refresh - (May 7th - June 30)
The seat refresh process involves replacing your current NGEN seat with a new NGEN seat. Code 109 will notify all users who are currently scheduled for tech refresh. 2) In-Place Upgrade (IPU) - (May 7th - June 30th) Windows 10 IPU pre-load packages are currently being pushed to NNSY seats via Radia. There are 38 packages in the full Preload. Once all packages have been installed your computer will be scheduled for upgrade. Two days before your scheduled upgrade you will see an icon appear on your desktop marked “Decrypt Now.” Do not push until further guidance is given. Double-click on the icon to start the decryption process. This runs in the background and you can continue working. Once this process starts, you cannot remove the workstation from government spaces until the upgrade and full re-encryption has occurred. DO NOT REBOOT YOUR WORKSTATION. The upgrade will begin at 5 p.m. local time on your scheduled date. The Windows 10 upgrade takes approximately 16-20 hours. On your upgrade day, DO NOT LOG OFF YOUR COMPUTER. At the end of the day pull out your CAC and leave your computer logged in. If the upgrade has not completed within 24 hours, call the NMCI Helpdesk and state that you have a Windows 10 IPU issue. When the upgrade process completes you will be presented with the Windows 10 welcome screen. Log in with your CAC as you normally would. If you are presented with an ID/Password dialog, click on the Smartcard (CAC) icon below it to log in with your CAC. The workstation will begin downloading all required patches and any additional software. After that, the re-encryption process will start. To check for completion, press the Windows key and type “Manage Bitlocker.” The application should show “C:Bitlocker On” once re-encryption is completed. DO NOT REMOVE THE COMPUTER FROM THE NETWORK FOR 48 HOURS TO ENSURE FULL RE-ENCRYPTION. 3) Manual IPU (May 7th - June 30th) Any seat that has not been tech refreshed and cannot accept the Windows 10 IPU push will require a manual wipe and reimage in order to upgrade to Windows 10. Therefore, if your IPU push has failed or has been idle for more than 48 hours please contact the NMCI helpdesk at 1-866-843-6624. **Prior to the date of your tech refresh or manual IPU please back up your data to your N: drive** Note: Sperry Safeguard Send is not compatible with Windows 10. More information about the Windows 10 IPU and data backup instructions can be found at: https://webcentral.nnsy.navy.mil/departments/c109/Windows 10/SitePages/Home.aspx

SOLUTIONS
EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE AND WORKLIFE
Boost Your Self-Esteem The way you see yourself influences your attitude and personality
At the basic level, self-esteem is the overall positive or negative impression of self, and what we believe to be true about ourselves. There are three primary levels of self-esteem: low, healthy, and high. Having low self-esteem means that you don’t value yourself enough, which makes it difficult to see the positives in life and may lead to depression, substance use, and becoming reluctant to leave abusive situations. Having very high selfesteem means that you place too much value on yourself and are unable to see your own flaws, which comes off as arrogant and entitled, and may lead to impulse control issues and bullying/abusive behavior. While self-esteem levels can vary by aspect (i.e., you believe you are great at cooking, but feel your paintings are terrible), a healthy opinion of yourself as a whole is best.
