How can I adjust the setting on my computer so I don't have to drag my finger every three minutes? When I walk away from my computer for more than 3 minutes... I have to re-do move my finger.
If you mean every 3 minutes you get disconnected so your finger is to open a session back, right click on the desktop, select Personalize downstairs, and then in the new window click on screen saver or turn it off or set the number of minutes and make sure "on Resume, display logon" is NOT selected. If it happens again every 3 minutes, return to customize, select this time power options and change the time it takes for the screen to be able to something higher.

Every day someone is trying to connect my Iphone6. Do I have to change my password every time? How can I stop this?
Your post says that someone is trying to connect 'on' your iPhone 6 - have - they possession of the phone or they try to connect your Apple from another device ID?
Note also that there are a number of phishing scams that send e-mails that appear to come from Apple, but are not current. Do not use any links in these emails if you are not.
If they are trying only to log in instead of sign in successfully it would be not necessary to change your password. However, you can consider on for Apple ID - Apple Support two-factor authentication or frequently asked questions about check in two steps for Apple ID - Apple Support (if available) for more security.
If they are correctly connected, see: If you think that your ID Apple has been compromised - Apple supports

Locked out of Admin Access and password has been deleted or changed.
I've been locked out of my account and I can not get access to the C drive not even with the command prompt. Whenever I try to use Windows Management console it says "incorrect parameters". -What this means and how can I have access again?
Oh and I have Vista and I tried the Net User Administrator / Active: Yes and I can't access my UAC or C drive. Also, when I open command prompt and type "dir" I get access denied, even as an administrator.
How is that possible? I was told there is a way to get rid of all passwords on my computer to reset the?
Thanks, :))

My computer is asleep after a few minutes. Then I have to enter a password to reactivate. I want to be able to change the settings for a time of sleep of my choice. I don't want to have to enter a password to wake the computer either. I went to user accounts and tried to change the settings, but they do not save the changes.
What happens when you try to change the power plan?
You shouldn't need administrator rights to change the settings in most situations. -
Why keep getting signed out and disconnected from xbox live every 30 min.?
I've been in contact with my ISP (3uk) and they say it's a microsoft issue and nothing to do with their modem (mobile dongle). It worked fine before with NO problem until 2-3 weeks ago. I removed the firewall I used but still have the problem. Once it disconnects me I can sign in almost immediately, but 30 minutes later, bang, signed again. His play with my game and I am really frustrated. Apart from the usual updates and I never changed any settings or anything else, the problem just started out of the blue, and my ISP technician seems to think its something to do with the network card. Help, please.
Hi Murray,
I suggest post you your question in Xbox support forum for better support associated with Xbox and check if this may help.
