What about your laptop
Ok, what's it doing? Hitting you? Seek a relationship counselor.

Well a programmer blocked things on my laptop. Specifically gaia and IMVU. Somehow blocked it. He then made himself an admin. I am a standard user, and he has parental controls. He also deleted the needed files for system factory resetting... D: Anything I can do?

Have you tried starting in recovery mode with the WiFi off?

were you expecting him to do anything good with your laptop?
this situation sounds really weird
Yes. he actually deleted the files needed to be reinstalled when factory resetting.
; o ;Is there a way to gain admin access and change it?

Sounds like said person's parent, or work place, or school locked said parent/school/work issued laptop down because said person was spending too much time on blocked sites. Just reformat with new install of Windows if you want to save yourself the trouble, or see if you can empty your host file cause I guarantee that's how the sites are being blocked.
more like my exboyfriend who lives in oregon. He liked to control me until I realized it was abusive =w= And he went into the actual system..The black screen thingy that pops up. Commands thing I think.

Do you have the original DVD/disk that came with the laptop? If so, using a DOS based boot disk, you can type "format C:" at the command prompt to reset your laptop and then use the disk to reload the data to how it was before the hacker changed the settings ~
If you have access a ISO burning software and have a blank writeable CD laying around download and burn this to a disc; Offline Windows pw & reg-editor, bootdisk
It will allow you to remove any password to any account on the computer itself.
here is a walkthrough on how to use it: Offline NT pw & reg-editor, walkthrough
After burnt put the disc in and restart your computer it should boot from the disc.

I have no disks D: FUckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk. Is there any alternative?
Download a copy of Windows, write to USB, install.
I have nothing to copy the files onto. I'm broke. T___________T
I have a spare copy of said disc would you like me to mail it to you? lol
If you got a smartphone you can use it as a USB device to install Windows from. I did that once, but it's kind of annoying.
Sure D: I need to get this done fast
he forceteamviews me. I cannot turn teamviewer off it pops right back up...

Uninstall teamviewer while in safemode, as well as delete his account etc on your computer?
whenever computer starts up, the command prompt automatically is up. and before i can change anything or look at it, it disappears before i can see the name!!
It's still admin, and he has parental on everything. I tried that.

And you don't have a Windows XP, Vista, 7, or 8 disc lying around anywhere?

Not date a psychopath next time, I could fix it if I had the time but I really don't.
PRETTY PRETTY PRETTY PLEASE? He's on team viewer it keeps popping up every time i keep trying to get out of it. if you can at least help me for taking off force team Viewer or, at the very least take off the parental, please.. I don't really beg for anything. I have no one else to turn to, HP really can't fix it. SO PLEASE? ;o;
Safemode, internet off, completely uninstall any team viewer or etc related files. Only other option I can think of is getting his IP (should be possible through teamviewer) and blocking it through the host files.

I tried that, but it need his admin password, which I do not know.. he basically has control over my whole laptop, and not even let me move my mouse. he blackout the screen too whenever he wants.. I just need help. Where are the host files supposed to be?
\system32\drivers\etc\hosts most likely
You should be able to see his IP through teamviewer panel.

I will never date a nerd
Strange thread. Unplug your ethernet adapter, or disable your wifi (physically turn it off at the powerpoint if you don't know how to do it otherwise).
Boot in to safemode (or normal), uninstall programs you don't want (such as teamviewer).
That'll stop him from taking over your machine until a point in time in which you can back up your data and reformat

If its hitting him, he should call the National Domestic Violence Hotline at 1-800-799-7233
I don't quite understand how he's actively engaging Teamviewer sessions from inside the system. Or is he out now and living in Oregon?
To get him to stop accessing your computer via Temaviewer, do what Artificial said.
You can either restore your entire system or try t
rk with it.Is it running Windows XP, Vista, or 7? I don't know how well this would work, but I seem to remember there being a backup account on Windows XP with the username administrator and no password that you could log on to from the login screen.
Other than that just all the standard things, if you want to save your files you should probably take them off the drive before you do a restore.
Just standard things. You could always try to seek legal help if he's actively stalking you.
Already tried telling her to do what Arti said, but she says didnt work unless she didn't do it right
Guys, she doesn't have admin powers. If her boyfriend limited her account to not be able to remove programs or install them, then she can't do anything. I belief going into safe mode will not work either, since she still doesn't have admin powers!
Your best chance is this:
If you can't do that, you need to get Windows CD and re-install the OS. You should backup your data first, and then format the drive during the OS installation.
To avoid your boyfriend to team-view you, you can try blocking Team Viewer in your firewall. If that's not possible, then just unplug from the internet.
tldr; buy $1 cd, burn Windows, re-install

Well I got it semi fixed. I'm admin. However he scripted and blocked websites and force teamviewer. I would have to go into COmmand Prompt
