This course was really helpful as it helped me to discover and go through essential features of Linux and Windows OS and also to discover essentials powershell and Bash commands to perform many tasks.

Great course, lots of very challenging and useful information. You'll learn about Linux and some of the inner workings of Windows, plus lots of tools and programs that are really useful. Great course!
