    Want to Give Laptop to Daughter


    I have a laptop that I want to give to my daughter. I figure the process should be easy enough. BUT:

    • I don't want my account on the computer any more, and
    • I'd like to make sure that she can use the copy of Microsoft Office installed on the PC.

    Is this possible? I have added her Microsoft account to the laptop and established her as an administrator, but the MS Office programs don't show up when she is logged in.

    Is there some way that I can grant her access to the Office program on the PC, and then delete my account from the PC?

    I purchased an Office license for 3 computers, of which this is one of them. I'm afraid that if I de-install the program under my account, I won't be able to reinstall it under her account.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Ransomware Daughters Computer

    Daughters computer has some kind of Ransomware virus on it.
    It has set the computers clock back, if you try to navigate to any website
    a fake Windows Defender web page appears. There is a "Microsoft"
    phone number and an audio suggestion you call the number.

    It is on my home network as a wireless desktop but I am not sharing it
    with any device. As soon as we discovered we powered it off.

    So, my question is, where to begin trying to do a fix?
    She is running windows 7 home premium.
    Its an old Dell Vostro model.

    Thanks for any advice, i have no idea.
