Carina Enke 429.1 4 To meet the legal requirements, all **files which are already available online need to be checked**. Their content is to be examined and evaluated according to the current regulations. Subsequently, they need to be edited or temporarily limited to the course administrator or deleted in case of doubt.
Carina Enke 139.1 5
Carina Enke 429.1 6 The learning platform provides you with different ways to restrict files or courses which have not been rated in accordance with license regulations yet. The most important regulations are summarised below:

Carina Enke 429.1 18 == (% style="color:#3e4444" %)Move files from a course element of the type folder to a locked storage location(%%) ==
Carina Enke 139.1 19
Carina Enke 429.1 20 In the learning platform, you can create storage locations within courses which only you yourself or other course administrators are allowed to access.
Carina Enke 139.1 21
Carina Enke 429.1 22 **Objective: **You separate those files in the learning platform which are supposed to be examined and revise them step by step. Afterwards, make the "cleaned" files available to your students again.
Carina Enke 139.1 23
Carina Enke 429.1 24 //How to proceed?//
Carina Enke 139.1 25
Carina Enke 429.1 26 1. Open the course and switch to the course editor.
27 1. Go to the storage folder of the course.
28 1. Create a new subfolder.
29 1. If necessary, move problematic files from the course element **Folder **to the new subfolder.
30 1. You do not need to publish the course, since these changes become immediately effective.

Carina Enke 429.1 99 == (% style="color:#3e4444" %)Export and delete courses(%%) ==
Carina Enke 139.1 100
Carina Enke 429.1 101 **Objective: **You have courses in the learning platform that were successfully completed and that are thus no longer needed online. You want to archive the courses offline and delete them subsequently.
Carina Enke 139.1 102
Carina Enke 429.1 103 //How to proceed?//
Carina Enke 139.1 104
Carina Enke 429.1 105 1. Open the course.
106 1. Select the down arrow from the course tools in the upper middle section.
107 1. In the menu, click on **//Details and settings// **. You will now be redirected to the ** //Detailed view // **of the course.
108 1. In the menu **//Learning resource //**on the right, select the entry **//Export content// **.
109 1. Now, you have the possibility to choose from different export options. If you want to save all course information, e.g. contents and posts / results of the participants, then simply select the second option **//OPAL// //c// //ourse //**//including all learners' data.//
110 1. Depending on the size of the course and the period of time it was in use, the learning platform might need some time to gather all the information which belong to the course. The information gathered are saved in a ZipArchive and offered for download.
111 1. Keep this archive safe because you can use it like a backup and, if needed, import the data back into the learning platform.
112 1. You can now delete the course. Leave the detailed view open and simply press **//Delete// **.
Carina Enke 139.1 113
Carina Enke 429.1 114 Principally, you have now successfully deleted your course. However, you should note that the learning platform offers a recycle bin functionality just in case you want to restore the deleted courses within a time span of 90 days. The courses will be automatically deleted after those 90 days have passed. If you want to immediately remove the complete course from the learning platform, you need to take five further steps:
Carina Enke 139.1 115
Carina Enke 429.1 116 1. Go to the tab **//Teach & Learn.//**
117 1. Click on the entry **//My courses// **in the navigation bar on the left.
118 1. You will see a button at the top right stating **//Open// //my entries// **. Click on this button.
119 1. In the navigation bar on the left, you will now find the **//Deleted entries// **. Select this entry.
120 1. You will see a table containing the learning resources of your recycle bin. Your course should be included. In this table on the right, you will find the function **//Remove// **. If you click on it, your course will be irrevocably removed from the learning platform.
Carina Enke 139.1 121
Carina Enke 429.1 122 This process also sounds more complicated than it actually is. For a quick and easy recapitulation of these steps, refer to our short [[**Screencast** >>url:https://bildungsportal.sachsen.de/magma/mediapreview/eefa526b836b22111b0f5129ebe7f7c54b705f41?withNavigation=false||shape="rect"]]. For now, the screencast is just available in German.

Carina Enke 429.1 161 == (% style="color:#3e4444" %)Central management of files in the local file explorer(%%) ==
Carina Enke 139.1 162
Carina Enke 429.1 163 **Objective: **You want to be given an overview of the files belonging to your courses and groups in your file explorer and be able to edit them right away comparable to a network drive.

Carina Enke 429.1 165 //How to proceed?//
Carina Enke 139.1 166
Carina Enke 429.1 167 You can use a parallel access to the learning platform which is based on the technology WebDAV (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning) in order to integrate the learning platform as a local drive into your file browser. Below, we will explain the procedure for a **Windows 10 operating system**:
Carina Enke 139.1 168
Carina Enke 429.1 169 1. Log in to the learning platform.
170 1. Access the menu **//Settings// **on the start page via the small down arrow next to your name in the top right corner.
171 1. Click on the tab **//WebDAV access// **.
172 11. Assign a password for the WebDAV access via the input fields **//WebDAV password// **and **//Confirm WebDAV password //**. 
173 11. Copy the link [[https:~~/~~/bildungsportal.sachsen.de/opal/webdav>>url:https://bildungsportal.sachsen.de/opal/webdav||shape="rect"]] from the last row in the info box to your clipboard (Ctrl+C).
174 1. Access your local file explorer.
175 1. **Right-click** on the entry **//Network// **in the navigation tree on the left side of the file explorer.
176 1. In the context menu, select the entry **//Connect network drive...// **.
177 1. If needed, you can now select a drive letter for the integration of the learning platform.
178 1. Use Ctrl+V to insert the previously copied link [[https:~~/~~/bildungsportal.sachsen.de/opal/webdav>>url:https://bildungsportal.sachsen.de/opal/webdav||shape="rect"]] into the input field **//Folder// **.
179 1. If you want this **//drive //**to be** **always available, simply activate the checkbox **//Reconnect at logon// **.
180 1. Confirm this dialogue with **//Complete// **.
181 1. You will now be asked to enter your user name and your password. Please make sure that you enter your **full** user name, i.e.(% style="color:#000000" %) [[(% style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: rgb(0, 0, 0)" %)"Account@**meine.hochschule.de** >>mailto:Account@meine.hochschule.de||shape="rect"]](%%)". Enter then the previously assigned WebDAV password and confirm this entry.
182 1. You have achieved your goal: In your file explorer, you will now find a new folder in which you can manage the files in the learning platform just as on a local hard disk or a network drive.

Carina Enke 429.1 184 For a repetition of the individual steps, watch our [[**Screencast** >>url:https://bildungsportal.sachsen.de/magma/mediapreview/007a347bced53e78792fcfebf97a6f97592d3534?withNavigation=false||shape="rect"]]. For now, the screencast is just available in German.

Carina Enke 429.1 188 {{info title="Further important information"}}
189 To make files available in new courses, follow the [[guideline for the provision of files>>doc:LMS.Benutzerhandbuch OPAL.Lehren.Leitfäden.Leitfaden Kurs anlegen und Dateien bereitstellen.WebHome]].
Carina Enke 139.1 190
Carina Enke 429.1 191 There are other course element types which allow for the upload of files. This is why it is important that you go through your courses again in detail. Please check especially the following course elements:
192
193 * **Tasks: **Here, files are used in assignments, answers, sample solutions, and replies.
194 * **Forums: **It is possible to attach files to forum posts.
195 * **Wiki: **On the one hand, it is possible to use the wiki pages themselves to provide files. On the other hand, there is a forum to each wiki page whose posts might also contain file attachments.
196 * **Assignment of Topics: **Through the topics which are to be assigned, it is also possible to upload files.
197
198 The function **//Exit course //**does not hide the course for users. It is thus not suitable for the purpose of hiding of courses.
