andrew129260, bingo I apologize to all of you for not being clear that I did not use the default password. The installer rightly recommended I change it, and he typed it in. I wrote down what I had said and he typed a slight variance. He then proceeded to set up the two computers. Until...

I want to add another computer to my router. I have one computer that uses this router, but I am unable to log in to the new one with the password I wrote down and asked the man who installed the router to use. So, I figure there must be a way to get the computer that is using the router to give...

HP support to the rescue! To eliminate this popup, look at the ragged image of the scare message in one of my earlier posts. Note the three dots at the right end of a line in the middle. Click it. This opens a menu of three choices. The middle one is "quit sending me messages." Click it. Done...

Jacee, this computer is an HP workstation and has had HP Wolf Security since I bought it.

I asked it to not do that, but if the ADWcleaner scan doesn't fix the problem, tomorrow I will call HP. I do appreciate the personal service from HP, thanks to buying my workstation at a big discount.

Getting popups that sometimes refer me to Norton or Macafee. Small alarmingly worded box pops up, when I close it I get a page pop up which I can also close. Task Manager reports activity by BRhosthelper and antimalware service executor. I have cleared Firefox cache and shut down and rebooted...

I never had this question understood. I had never had a PIN on this computer and was unable to get past the lock screen. For some reason commenters continued to believe that I had gotten past the lock screen. I think my problem was compounded by an error I read about in the windows update that...

Thanks to all of you. Will close this thread.

So maybe all I need to do is put a text file on a USB (I have ones that work on USB A and USBC!) and store the USB separately from the computer every night. Neat! Thanks again.

Telepro21, thank you. That helps a lot. Do I just look for a model that is FIDO certified, or can you tell me a specific model?

I thank all of the people who have helped me so far in my search for a safe and secure way to secure my computers. I have decided that the weak spot for me is the password to Bitwarden. I decided also that I don't want to trust that password to being saved on my computer. I found a fellow...
