My password does not work and the computer won't let me? What caused this and how to fix it?

Friday when I signed up computer turned off, everything worked very well. Today it lit, and all of a sudden my password does not work. I had the computer about two years and everything was fine with the same password. Someone might have tried to sign without the correct password - would he have it? I don't know what to do, but must enter into the system! Any sugguestions?

  • My driver support does not work all the time, won't let me connect, keeps losing internet connection.

    * Original title: SUPPORT of the PILOTS LOSE INTERNET.

    My driver support does not work all the time, won't let me connect, keeps losing internet connection.

    What do you mean by "driver support?

    If you have installed one of these offers of support software driver, you have installed malware.  The vast majority of them no useful software and installing a lot of malware on your computer.

    The drivers are not the soft thing you should normally be updated.  I recommend the updated drivers only in the case of a problem that has to solve, and it's rare.

    Is the ONLY source, you should consider for driver updates or OEM support site.  Even those who sometimes go way overboard in trying to update the drivers.  The latest Dell systems are equipped with updated software that checks for new updates every day.   In most cases, drivers are rarely updated after the first year of a product.

  • Brush control with CTRL + ALT + click right + mouse/pen movement does not work with the tool liquify (photoshop cc 2015): what should I do?

    Brush control with CTRL + ALT + click right + mouse/pen movement does not work with the tool of liquefy; I can't change the size of the brush or hardness. OS win 7 Professional 64 bit, wacom tablet intuos 6.3.14 - 1 driver s pro, Photoshop 2015 CC worm.  2015.0.1 20150722.r.168

    What are your settings of GPU acceleration?  As I understand it, the Alt right click size and hardness adjust needs acceleration GPU to be turned on, but I have a feeling Brush hardness is always set to easy when using fluidity.  You can still see the quick mask as representation of the soft brush when Alt right click, but you can't change the hardness.

    Is that you can change the brush size and pressure (framed in red in my screenshot) Alt right click drag left and right changes size and down to pressure changes, and you can see what is happening in real-time by looking at the sign on the right.  It works independently of your acceleration GPU (IME) settings, but you don't get the effect of soft red quick mask.

    Does this fit with what you see, or you are not able to change things at all?  If not, then I've always found that fluidity consumes system resources, if you could check the Task Manager > Performance tab to see what kind of RAM and CPU use is using the fluidity.  That's what I see after direction the lens above with a big brush continuously for 10 seconds.  Note This is on a fairly quick NLE System.

  • Sound does not work on the computer and the volume icon does not appear in the system tray.

    Original title: my sound icon has disappeared from the taskbar.  The Control Panel indicates the sound is on, but I can't hear anything.  What happened and how do I get my sound back?

    Have a Toshiba laptop that always displays the lower icon audio in the right hand of the screen.  The sound icon has disappeared and I can't hear anything.  I check Contol Panel and sound, and he says it works and is turned up... but I can't hear a thing.  How can we retrieve icon of audio and how I can hear sound?

    Hello

    Thank you for your response.
    I did a "System Restore" and the icon reappeared, and the sound now works.
    I restarted the computer a couple of times, but that does not solve the problem.  Also, I went into the Panel and checked to see if the speakers were working and were lit, and they were.
    It wasn't until I did the restore of the system that the icon reappeared and the noise began to work again.
    Thank you.
  • My password does not work and I do not receive the password reset email.

    I tried to set up Firefox sync and set up a username and password. I received the email to check and checked. When I tried to access my account in firefox, it says that the password is wrong. When asked to reset the password, I don't have the reset password email. I tried to set up a new account, but Firefox has said that there is already an account with my email address. So, what to do next?

    Are you talking about this web site, the site of the add-on, sync? Each is a separate

  • Windows 7 Aero does not work after the computer and Lync 2010 screen sharing session force shutdown

    Hi guys,.

    I can't activate Aero, my theme is stuck on Basic after that I got a power issue and forced stop running Lync 2010 screen sharing (this disables Aero but it turns on when the sharing is stopped).

    I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 on a workstation with the following specifications:

    CPU: AMD Phenom II X 4 955

    RAM: 16GB DDR3 Corsair

    GPU: nVidia GTS 450 (1 GB of GDDR5 memory)

    My Windows experience index is 5.9 (determined by HDD SATAII, the rest scores are higher than 7).

    Troubleshooting I executed before writing these lines:

    • Updated my nVidia drivers
    • Checked the themes and DWM Session Manager services, both started, both the Auto value
    • Ran the store built, the problem cannot be resolved
    • Running the Wizard Microsoft Fix It, he pointed out that my graphics card does not support Aero Glass

    So the GPU is not the problem, I've been running Aero until this problem has occurred.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

  • Connect you to windows 7 password does not work and no disk password does!

    I had the same password for years.  I've never had a problem.  All of a sudden my password no longer works.  Help!  I have no disk password.  Don't know.  I have no recovery disk.  Do not no more.  I only RESTORE which I want to use.
    Can someone help me please?

    Can you think of anything else I should do to prepare in case something goes wrong with the computer.  I have the recovery CD I created them when I got the laptop.

    Can of course! Those of us who prefer do not re-install Windows from scratch in case something does not take the following measures:

    1. Burn a CD to repair Windows via Control Panel / backup and restore.
    2. Connect an external hard drive in a USB enclosure.
    3. Create an image of the drive system via the control panel / backup and restore. Store it on the external drive.
    4. Use the repair Windows CD to start the machine in Repair Mode.
    5. Check if the image in step 3.
    6. Update the image to twice a year.
    7. Use the USB drive to your regular backups.
    8. Keep the USB drive, far away from your PC for most of the time.

    Hello Jay

    I agree with Akuma. All you can do is remove VAP preinstalled system and reinstall the latest version. Why you didn t follow the instructions to restart the computer after the installation of VAP?

    I installed VAP several times on my Satellite P200 and Satellite A300 without any problem, but after installing the latest version, I rebooted phone immediately. The procedure of the facilities has been completed and necessary processes started in the background. I guess that's the problem on your Satellite P300.

    If nothing is done the last step is to install the OS by using the DVD facilities. After doing this you will own preinstalled OS and everything works well again.

  • Deliver the sound does not work on the computer.

    So sometimes the sound on my computer works just simply. This problem occurred recently: after watching a few movies on the computer using a double headphone output (I was watching with my sister) it worked fine, no problem. A day or two later, I tried to watch a video (on headphones) and the left earphone wasn't working - no sound didn't go out. I figured out the headphones were very good, but it's the computer problem. He started to work again the next day, but then most problems - sometimes no sound at all. No speakers or the headphones. Ever since then, it's like Russian Roulette, sometimes it is sound, sometimes it does not. I just wish the best. I tried troubleshooting and he said that he could not detect any problems. I tried to it turn on and off again? Yes, several times.

    I'm desperate for help! Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    If the computer has a separate sound card remove ALL power and then remove and reinstall
    the map. If it's built-in sound so either she developed a hardware problem or
    something interferes with him. If the device goes wrong it may be replaced if

    a separate device or it can be disabled in the BIOS or Device Manager and
    a card can be used OR a USB card sound.

    Check in the Device Manager - Sound - Driver tab - go to the site of the manufacturer of the audio device
    Download and install the latest driver.

    ========================================================

    Sometimes 3rd part antivirus/security or another program may be causing interference.
