When I try to log in to Windows, the Microsoft Store or the Xbox app, I get stuck in a loop of password queries

I bought a cheap laptop from Walmart, but I don't like the idea being forced to sign in to a Microsoft account to set up my PC. However Shift + F10 does nothing, shift+F10+fn does nothing, and ctr+alt+del does nothing. Alt+Tab merely shows me "Microsoft account" and little else. I'd almost...

Hey all, I was about to buy a superclocked gtx 660, however the craigslist post was already sold. So I’ve gathered some new cards, but I need your guys thoughts please on which is the Best Buy. I can afford all of them, so performance is key. Really the only game I play would be H1Z1, FORTNITE...

I was given a Dell Optiplex 745 with Windows XP at my job and I work for a school. So it requires a login when it boots up, but I don't have the password. Also I do not have any boot discs or OS discs. Is there a way to format or restore it to factory default?
