Topic: serious question about windows 10

Anonymous A started this discussion 8 years ago #71,331

how the fuck are you *supposed* to get your password prompt to show up on the windows 10 login?
I cant figure out what I'm supposed to do
And its been years
Years
Do you double click? slide the screen up? click one of the bullshit facts they give?
Clicking a fact seems to be the only ireliable way
But then it opens a web browser when log in
Its like the worst part of windows 10

I had to help some guy figure out how to turn down the system volume, because the familiar speaker icon was missing from the usual taskbar tray thing at a public computer

searched for vol, noticed a fucking speaker icon appear on the taskbar, noticed it went away afterward, had to repeat the whole fuckin process but was sure to rightclick and click to "pin" to taskbar, ugh

all the while every key stroke gets uploaded to who the fuck knows where

okay so i found out you can just slide the lock screen up and it gives you the password prompt

but jesus its horrible

you have to like grab it and slooooowly slide it up it takes like four swipes on my trackpad

it doesnt feel like a gesture it feels like work

Our lab computers at school reset every time they get shutdown, and since IT didn't bother to change the default action to "log off" instead of "shutdown", this happens frequently. So almost every day I have to remove IE from the taskbar and make Firefox the default browser again.

Of course, for whatever reason the contents of the Recycle Bin does persist, along with anything in the non-user directories.

Why can’t you afford a Mac?

This must be because of the device you have. My old ass HP just makes you click or tap any key to bring up the password prompt.

You can only afford a Commodore 64. Thanks.

It's like you're not even ashamed of your homosexual urges.
