Computer was remotely hacked

F
My initial password was blocked by computer during login after installing a program from external sources. WebRoot successfully warned me but I just ignored it. Any way to fix it? I guess the hacker changed the login password.

The only thing I can suggest is to call Webroot Support and have your email address and keycode handy and hopefully they can do something for you! Toll free: https://tel:+18007729383

    It happened to me, but after changing the password on my computer, it got hacked again immediately. What I found out later is that they hacked into my router and change network password.

    With it https://www.mobiledic.com/windows-topic/unlock-a-locked-windows-computer.html ,any login passwords for Windows 7/8/10 computer can be unlocked without losing,it is recommended to set the number + letter + symbol when setting the password.It's hard for hackers to crack complex, powerful passwords.
