    Make Windows 10 more secure


    Hello,

    since I saw a video how easy it is to bypass the normal Windows login-screen, I was wondering how I could protect myself against it.

    Against live-boot from other media:
    I have enabled bitlocker encryption, so booting from a live-stick (e.g. Linux) should not give someone access to my files.

    Against bypassing windows-login:
    Without giving details, you can access the cmd.exe on the login-screen if you know how its done and reset the users password. Is there a way to prevent that?

    Hope someone can help me with that. Thanks!

    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
