I have some questions. I'm thinking of buying a 2nd hand pc but what do I do? Do I do a full restore? Or log in as usual? I don't know what do. If I do buy second hand. Is there a way they could still have control of my pc? Or acces it remotely without my knowledge. Probably not but I'm just paranoid. If anyone could tell my what to do when I get It it would help.

Well i dont think anyone would want to hack to thier old computer just to see what the new owner is doing, but if your afraid of the previous owner trying to hack your computer, dont worry theres windows antivirus on your windows make sure real time protection is on or just download an anti virus software like avast, avg, mcaffee.... If your really scared than just erase all the data on your hard drive and reinstall windows on your pc. If i were you, i wouldve build a computer rather than buying a prebuilt but yeah i guess everyone has thier own preference.
