Unlocking a acer laptop that my son got from

You can get use out of the laptop though (such as browsing the web, playing with net cam, etc.). You have to press/hold the window button (the one between the control and alt key or between the fn and alt key depending on the model you have) and the letter u on your keyboard. This should bring up a menu; 1)click help, 2)then options, 3)then home, 4)then help and support. In the search bar, you can look for My computer, My documents, Programs, or whatever you want. Since the computer is not unlocked by the administrator, you have to do this everytime you restart. It sounds like a handful but you will zip through it once you do it the first time. If you have a wireless net connection at home, I suggest you type that in the search bar and get connected to your network first because you probably want to use the net.
