How do I change my password to start the computer - I think someone is using my internet connection to bounce and provide misinformation in cyberspace.
Until recently, I didn't use any password to open windows. 3 months ago started using a very simple password, now want to increase my security and update a new password. Could not find any file to assist me in my efforts.
Hello
See if that helps you.

Proceed to a very thorough check for malware and then change your password by e-mail.
It is possible for a person to send the email that 'seems' to be of your
account but that is not really - called "Spoofing." That means its 'Possible' emails
were not really you, although they may have your contact list. Have someone
who receives the e-mails to check the header to see where he is actually sent by and

If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
cause.No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run

The screen that comes up when I put it back in operation is one that says windows stopped at unsucessfully you gives the choice to run in safe mode or let it reboot in 30 seconds, and he usually goes right
Looks like you may have a virus or other malware. Get your updated antivirus program and boot into Safe Mode. Note that some viruses can hide from your normal antivirus program, so you really need to scan in Safe Mode. To enter in Safe Mode when you turn on first, press F8 on every seconds until you get the menu, and then select Safe Mode. Then run a complete system scan.

If that suits him fine. If this is not the case, use system restore to go back to an earlier date at the beginning of the problem. To run system restore, click Start-> programs-> Accessories-> System Tools-> system restore. Click on the box that says show more restore points.
-
You can check the corrupted system files. Open an administrator command prompt and run SFC if the above does not help. Click START, and then type CMD in the search box, right-click on CMD. EXE and click run as administrator. Then, from the command prompt type sfc/scannow.
-
Finally if all else fails, you can look at the rather cryptic system event log. To do that click on start-> Control Panel-> administration-> event viewer tools. Once in Event Viewer system log-click and scroll entries looking for these "error" with indicator see if you can find guidance on where the problem may be.
`
When you get your system in good working condition, I invite you to back up your system up to an external hard drive and make it regular periodic updates.

I hope this helps. Good luck.

do you know how I can change my password for THIS website in mozilla firefox help? There is no link that takes me to this particular thing. It is not available in all the links that are related to my profile. If I can not log on in the future, what good is to join?

(1) how can I change my password for connection of Firefox? (Not my main password for things Firefox stores)
(2) how can I change my password for connection of Thunderbird? (Not my master
password for things Thunderbird stores)
Just answer (Email removed by mod)You don't have to log in to Firefox. Firefox is just a browser, such as Internet Explorer. Everything you have to do is double-click it and open it. It's like Internet Explorer. If you have some sort of password extension protecting your Firefox, it's different and you need to contact the developer of the extension.

How can I change my password for purchases?
How can I change my password for purchases?
IF you are referring to your password for your AppleID, then you can go to this page; https://appleid.Apple.com/
Once there, you want to go to the Security section. Then, you click on change password. Then enter your current password, and then enter a new password and confirm the new password. Then click on change password. We'll then spend your AppleID password. If it is the password you speak when you try to download apps.
IF you are referring to him requesting a digital password or one that is your telephone access code, simpally change your password in the phone.
I hope this has helped! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask!
Have a great rest of your day!
