    Windows locked me out


    Someone is trying to gain access to my microsoft account. I can see login attempts but failed because the password is incorrect.Obviously but now I need to enter a confirmation code that is being sent to my email address every time I turn the computer on.I am trying to reset the pin, it says something went wrong.I don't really like the way this works. I shouldn't have to have my phone handy and my emails ready to log in on my computer.

    :)

    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
