Hi All,
My brother just gave me his old computer, of which he was the admin.
The computer is not password-protected, i.e., I do not have to login into it
to use it. I guess strictly-speaking, I am not the admin, as the computer name
is under his name. Still, given the computer is not password-protected, is there
any restriction on what I ( or anyone) can do in the computer? Would I have to
reset the computer to factory state in order to become the admin myself?
