Locked out of PC - help needed

[yeseye]

Give it a few belts with a sledge hammer , that should cure it,
Or build a new one.

Have you tried disabling the driver signing enforcement on advanced boot options?

Maybe use an old PS2 keyboard and mouse if you have one lying around, have you tried a different USB port on your PC?

Try entering the bios and from there do a fresh install of windows perhaps?

Got this sorted in the end guys.

Turned out it was because I was using a USB 3 port, worked fine in USB 2. I was able to unlock the account in the end.

Thanks for the help everyone

Who is pushing you to do that? ignore them Karen. Unless you use dodgy links regularly i.e. for illegal streams online where you can get malware ridden ads you should be fine. Add noscript and ublock origin to your browser addons and you should be fine.

Presuming you're using Google Chrome as your browser then you should only be installing extensions from the Chrome Store:-

Noscript is at:-

Ublock Origin is at:-

I use Adguard rather than Ublock but generally you should be able to either left or right click and have the option to add the site to the whitelist.

I don't have Noscript anymore myself but from memory it's doing what it's supposed to do, I'm not sure it's possible to make exceptions for specific content although you may be able to disable it on Bluemoon similar to Ublock.

By the way, for anything dodgy such as streams or torrents I use the Epic Privacy Browser exclusively:- https://www.epicbrowser.com/

I use it 'bare' as it comes with everything I need built in.
