    Windows 10 login for a laptop


    I have had this Windows 10 laptop for over TWO years. I have used the same password to log in once the machine boots up every day of those 2 years. Today, I took it to use outside, not connected to the internet in any way either hard wired or wireless. The wireless connection is turned off. When I attempted to log into the laptop I got the lovely message below:"Your device is offline. Please sign in with the last password you used on this device"I tried using the portable keyboard which I always use, I tried using the laptop keyboard - all with NO effect. I have not changed the laptop passw

    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
