Hey guys so in my house i have several computer savvy people who know their way around computers, including hacking my account password to get into my profile. I was wondering if there is anyway you can add a password feature that requires you to put in a password when the windows is loading before it gets to the profiles, is there a way or even a better way to get it done? ty!

Can you add password to windows startup logo screen?

Hi Gorillamp,
Welcome to GeeksToGo!
If the forgotten login password belongs to your user profile that appears after Windows has loaded, I am afraid we can't help you that since it is against forum policy since we can not confirm that you are the owner of the computer. The only way to create/add a new password is to figure out the old one.
If I misunderstood your request, please explain yourself further.
