  1. Locked out of Windows


    So I got locked out of my computer and I cannot get back in. I only had one account and it was the administrator one.. My computer didn’t have a password as I never used it in public. One day I opened my computer and there was a password required, I guessed I set it by accident and guessed a bunch of passwords but to no avail. I really need help as every solution needs the password. Did not create a password reset disk ahead of time and now I’m stuck, please help.

    :)

    Locked out of Windows

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    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
