    I think my pc was hacked or accessed by someone through the internet connection


    hello
    I woke up today and found that my desktop background was changed to a picture of some football players which was never on my device.
    I think someone else has access to my pc at the moment and I want to stop this from happening
    maybe through the internet connection, as the connection I'm using has a lot of other devices connected to it
    and I want to stop it or do something because I'm afraid my personal data is at risk
    can anyone please help me with that?????

    :)

    2. Win+X->Control Panel->Netwok and Sharing Center
      Follow the screen shot. This should disable internet access from this PC but allows access to local device(s)
      NOTE: Use the IP & Subnet Mask from step 1. Leave Default gateway & DNS Server blank

    Guidance needed to setup my Home PC access over Internet through browser

    I wasn't giving steps on how to get RDP working, that is covered plenty of other places, I just give the steps to make it secure.

    RDP. If they aren't tracking your Web browsing, I doubt they are going to track RDP.

    And if you start the session from the command prompt it doesn't even put the address in the MRU list.

    Though the question that needs to be asked now is, what are you using for your VM lab?

    Have internet access, but some programs don't think I'm online

    Maybe Firewall causing the "No Internet Access" problem turn it off to test it.

    Visit your network card manufacturer website and install latest version of the driver.

    On Windows 10, you can also use the "Network reset" feature to fix Wi-Fi or Ethernet connectivity problems after installing an update or at any time that you can't connect to the network.

    To reset the network adapters on your device, use these steps:


    1. Open Settings.
    2. Click on Network & Internet.
    3. Click on Status.
    4. Under the "Change your network settings" section, click the Network reset option.
    5. Click the Reset now button.
