Could have just researched what character was being inserted by the ctrl backspace and then used the keyboard to insert the character from its ascii or unicode code to login and then changed your password before nuking your computer

Was that the same version of Windows where you could click "cancel" to bypass the login prompt?

I know, this is easier said than done for someone unfamiliar with this stuff, but maybe still good to know that this is an option in future:

You can prepare a "Linux Live USB" and select in the BIOS that it should boot off of that.
It'll start a complete OS off of that USB, so you can access the hard drive (assuming you didn't enable disk encryption) and at the very least backup your files, or sometimes even resolve whatever keeps you from accessing Windows.

Lol and they say Windows is great with being backwards compatible...

I did the exact same thing with my password at work

Huh, that's what it looks like when you comment \0

My lemmy mobile client just crashed. This is me on the web interface, lol.

Nah man, not sanitizing Inputs could pose serious security risks as someone could use this shit to escape and run arbitrary database queries potentially leaking passwords or other info or just wiping it (Afa I have learnt on the internet)

Now I want to try this."; DROP TABLE 'users';

ftfy

if the system is even remotely competent
