How to disable and enable a user account in Windows 10

Microsoft’s operating system offers the ability to create user accounts so that each person who uses the same computer has their own account to manage their files and applications with the necessary permissions. When we turn on the computer and start the operating system, we will see the Windows 10 login screen. In this screen, we can see how the list of the active user accounts in the system appears in the lower left corner.

Just by choosing your account from that list and entering the password, you will login to Windows 10. However, there are some tasks or functions that will only be available to the computer’s administrator user, such as being able to manage these user accounts. The system administrator will be the one that can create, delete, activate or deactivate a user account in Windows 10.

Seven warning signals that you need to buy a new PC

  • by

Using obsolete computers until they “can’t go on”, stretching the useful life of a device beyond what is reasonable, can result in errors or slowness in the execution of the system or resulting applications, is a torture and can test the patience of any user.

Much more so for a professional or a business, because a computer park made up mostly of obsolete equipment interferes in the daily labor of the employees and ends up resulting in lower productivity with a direct relation between the acquisition of devices with high computing power and the efficiency of operations on general.

Taking into account the increased cost of maintaining obsolete equipment, the total cost of ownership of the new equipment is easily redeemable by the increase in productivity, connectivity or mobility offered by the latest generations of devices.

Optimizing the Tracking

Playstation VR uses a camera in combination with LEDs on your headset and the PlayStation Move controller (Dual Shock 4 controllers can also be recognized). This method is of course less than subtle and these bright lights reflecting of off shiny surfaces can become a little irritating. That’s why we recommend darkening your room for PS VR.

Best Thermal paste for CPU 2017: Which to buy?

  • by

Thermal paste is a very important compound; it improves the conduction of heat from the CPU to the heat sink, so that none of the heat generated by the computer remains trapped within it. Thermal paste that’s dry or otherwise insufficient won’t adequately conduct thermal energy, meaning that the CPU’s temperature will be higher than it should. In general, thermal paste is very cheap and is available at a broad range of prices and quality. Here, we’ll talk about the best brands of thermal paste on the market. This document will be updated each time a new type of thermal paste comes on the market.

Types of thermal paste
