    I have some viruses on my pc, and factory resetting it will delete the virus. I dont use the laptop that often but I used to use it alot and have had important accounts logged into it before. I'm not sure if the malware had access to my accounts, but I wanna be safe. When I factory reset, will my Google and steam accounts be deleted? They're not logged in atm, I logged em out when I found out there was malware.

  2. I can not reset my google password

    Two step works for me if your phone info is the same as it was you should be able to recover it.

    I can not reset my google password

    So I forgot my main google account password and I have been trying to reset but I am unable to due to not having access to my recovery email or my old phone which was still attached to my google account. Yes I know I should have updated this information but I forgot to.

    I am currently logged into to my google account on my PC, but I had to factory reset my phone due to it having some software issues and I need to add my main gmail account to it but I am unable to reset the password. The only reset option I can do is my security question.

    If anyone has ran into this issue before or might have an idea that could help me I would greatly appreciate it.

    Thank you.

    How to factory reset Cisco 1700 Router

    Hopefully I can help you here....its a very common thing to happen.


    First, I take it you dont know the passwords for console access or telnet/ssh?

    I will assume that these devices belong to you.

    step 1. Plug a cisco console cable into a serial port on your pc
    step 2. Plug other end into Cisco console port
    step 3. Using hyperterm or putty or similar connect to the serial port
    step 4. boot router, and make sure you clearly can see the output (this confirms you have good serial comms)
    step 5. if this fails, adjust the comm port settings (9600, 8,1,n are the default)
    step 6. now you have to do the only hard part...send the break command:

    Break command list: Break Commands

    Go down the list and match your OS and SW and try the sequence suggested.

    If this fails several times do what I do: Install putty (free) and then to send a break so you can get into rommom just hit "ctrl-a b".
