    Windows 10, Locked Out


    I'm an intern for a Congressman and we just a replacement computer. It's an HP Elitedesk 800G6 but when we got it, we weren't provided with a reset disk, recovery CD, nor a flashdrive with windows on it. Since this was pretty normal with the other 6 we've gotten, nothing was out of the ordinary until we realized that this current computer's login screen has an account called Administrator and none of us know the login.I've tried:The default HP passwordResetting bios admin passwordGeneric passwordsBlank passwordSpace passwordBooting in safe mode only to realize I still need to loginReset Pa

    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
