I need to configure my computer so that I need to use a password to connect to use
When my computers on anyone can use it I want to password protect
When my computers on anyone can use it I want to password protect
There are two ways to go on this subject and, with one exception, each require that you first create a password for your account.
Control Panel > user accounts > click your account > click the link "create a password". Once you have set the password you can then either choose to disconnect (this does not mean cut the computer) or, you can activate an active screen saver and place a check mark in the check box require a password on the resume.
Also, as an administrator of a few forums and websites, I recently received an invitation to try a new application with a lot of latest mobile phones. It is called XUS PC lock by EDeskSoft. It can be customized to lock your computer, and you draw a model, chosen by you, before the computer is unlocked. It's really fun and effective little app.

So a few months ago I completely wiped the BONE (sindows) acccidentally. I don't know why it happened, but there is no file at all, no OS. Using another computer, I had a trial version of the same Windows I have 7 Home premium and inserted the product key, I have inside my Dell laptop and got it to work under Win 7 again. My question is: given that I've used the key of windows already on my computer, does that mean I can never use it again? Or is - this perpetual, I can use it forever?
You can use as many times as you like on the same Dell computer.
There might be some cases if reinstall you it from scratch, you may need to use the activation of the phone well:

Windows Vista just updated to 6.0 on this machine and wanted to add the other machine to my account synchronization on this machine (main TM) now it says I need to configure an account to sync, however when I put my email address it tells me that it is in use if of course my account is still there version 6 just has somehow forgotten all about it. I still have another machine to update, but I'm not there until this is resolved.
Hello!
Instead select Create an account, you should choose 'Connect'
In the next screen you will ask for a code. You don't need it. Instead, look at the bottom of this screen because 'I don't have the camera with me' and follow the steps.
If you don't have the key of the clock at the end of the next step, you can get it from your other computer (assuming that it is still connected to Firefox Sync): sync your bookmarks from Firefox, history, passwords, etc.

no configuration administrator when configuring the computer
laptop HP envy using windows8
I do not set up the administrator when configuring the computer. How can I configure an administrator now?
By default, the first account created during the setup of the PC is the "Administrator" account Windows, to the best of my knowledge, will allow not a standard user account must be created before an administrator account. Press the Windows key + X and select Control Panel. Select user accounts and verify that it is an admin account or not. If this is not the case, click on change the type of account and it should give the opportunity. There must be at least one administrator in Windows 8, so this should be an admin account, provided that it is the only one.
You receive a prompt in a program he needs administrator privileges? What made enter you the account isn't an admin account? Some older programs may not recognize it as an administrator account.

I couldn't use Firefox because it wouldn't load websites (it would just load for several minutes before giving up). I have reset and the problem persisted. As a last resort, I uninstalled Firefox to see if then put it back would solve the problem. Try reinstalling Firefox, after clicking on "Run", my computer says that Firefox is 100% downloaded, despite the fact that it has been uninstalled and is no longer on my computer. As a result, it is now impossible for me to launch Firefox. Any help?
On the main download page, you get a small "stub" for Firefox installer that needs to connect to additional files. Firewalls or other components can sometimes this fails (even if 100% doesn't look like a failure...).
Can you try to use a "full" Installer from this page - made scroll your preferred language:

That means "another device on the network use the IP address of your computer"?, that means "another device on the network is using the IP address of your computer?
A
Most likely, the computer becomes a network address of a router. The assignment of an address ("lease") expires and must be renewed after a certain period of time, which could be an hour or a day. The lease expired without being renewed because the device has been disconnected at the time. Meanwhile, the address has been leased to another device on the network, or maybe the router has not updated its list of addresses the leases. When the device offline comes back online, a conflict results. Depending on the type of router you have, the conflict can resolve itself automatically. If not, then in the menu bar, select please
▹ System Preferences network ▹
If the preferences window is locked, click the lock icon in the lower left corner and enter your password to unlock it. Click the Advanced button, and then select the TCP/IP tab in the sheet that drops down. Look at the menu option
Configure IPv4
If the selection in this menu is
Using DHCP
Click on the button
Renew the DHCP lease
Test.
Make sure that you have more than one DHCP server on the network. That could happen if you have more than one access point Wi - Fi, or if you have a router and broadband a wide device distinct in connection mode sharing.
B
Less likely, you have a network address that you assigned yourself and another device is itself by assigning the same address. In this case, the selection to configure IPv4 menu will be either manually or using DHCP with manual address. This kind of conflict will not be resolved automatically. You have the following options to solve:
- Change the selection in menu using DHCP.
- Change the address assigned manually to one that is not used by another device.
- Change the address of the other device.
Which of these options you choose depends on the details of why you use a static IP address. Any changes you make to the network settings is necessary before taking effect. To do this, click OK, and then click apply.
If the router is also your device at wide band, then he may be operating in bridged mode. In this case, only one customer at a time will be able to connect to the Internet. Consult the manufacturer or ISP documentation for how to reconfigure the device in the connection mode sharing.
C
According to a report a "DirectTV" receiver can cause the problem. If necessary, disconnect the device from the network, or power off and test. Consult the support services provider.

my computer says user is owner and demand a password that I don't have.
original title: signature distressed
Hi, I have Windows XP. I've never used a password. When I start it up it opens just windows. Yesterday, we had high speed internet installed. The installation program could not make it work so he called Qwest and they needed him to do something. Now my computer says user is owner and demand a password that I don't have. Qwest says it's our problem. What can I do? Thank you
Try to connect under the built-in Administrator account. You will then be able to change or remove the password and/or create other users:
'Forgotten your Windows XP Home password? "- Part 3: define a new password as an administrator.

Restart the computer after / as required during the uninstall process.

I have fixed everything at the time of my desktop computer starts up to a screen black with no explorer.exe running (the explorer.exe running only showed a folder at a time, until I restarted it.) and now I have a connection problem.
My netgear router has a connection with my computer, it shows green in the taskbar. However, my actual connection to the internet is not as lucky as the connection with the router.
I see the networks that I am able to connect to, but as soon as I did, I said that I am not currently connected to any network. If I go to "Connect to a network" I see clearly that I'm "connected with limited access" to Snet-G, which is one of the networks available to connect.
In my options of netgear, I am also connected to Snet-G, and it shows that it is actually connected.
My problem is the fact that I can "ipconfig" and I find none of my information, and when I try to ipconfig/all, it gives me an error something while not connected, so it says that I'm connected and does not, at the same time. My local internet does not work (can not navigate to 192.168.1.1 and others), and of course for this reason, my global internet does not work.
I need a fix for this, because I just put a ton of subscriptions for this month, which are already paid, and if I can't use this month is a good slice of $50 trash just because I fixed something.
Thanks, that's a well advanced topic.
I tried the following:
System Restore (6 days back, the problem started 2 days ago)
Restarting the computer
Unplug modem (30 seconds)
Restarting the router/Reset
Connection to the Snet-N instead of the Snet-GThings to take note, if you do not already consider: I can't connect to my router config (192.168.1.1), my computer says I am connected locally, but not in the world.I have some information about the modem if necessary.-I have restored my computer 6 days ago, but only changed my problem with explorer.exe back. Internet broke again-. -.Hello
