Laptop? I found a laptop on the garbage. May I use it?

Ru

Not really, but use it anyway

Ka

Legally, it was theft, as the garbage still belonged to them.

Especially on the laptop data on it and these have come without the consent of the owners in your hands.

ra

No!

Well, now you can use it too

ho

I would be careful with that. Maybe someone stole it and it was not so bad, or bad conscience, and then disposed of?

mo

Laptop in bulky waste? That is certainly already a misdemeanor. He belongs in the electronic scrap.

Simply that is certainly not to decide. On the one hand, the owner has given up possession. (Was he still on a private property? Then probably not)

Was he on the street? This too is a misdemeanor by the one who has dropped him off.
Maybe it is a lost property. Then you also get finder's pay.

mo

Because the garbage still belonged to those.

why you can put bulky waste on the street?

Ka

As far as I know, you can fill in a form at the community twice a year then bulky waste 2m ² will be picked up. Costs 30 euro. Is that way with me.

If it is on the street it still belongs to the owners, as long as it was not picked up by the commissioned company.

mo

The then knows the one who has filed him but not saved from theft. How should others know that?

Ai

No, he was not on a private property. I shudder now, if I somehow come to the Internet with the. Unfortunately, I have not made it yet. Do not know me that way either.

Ai

Then the owner / s should not just put the spearfull. He knows that maybe he still has data on it. Maybe he deleted them too.

Ai

If I could, that would be nice. But it comes first user name and password. I'm trying to get on the internet somehow. Unfortunately does not work.

Ai

Unfortunately I can't use it yet. Because first comes user name and password. How can I get online? Is that anyway?

ra

Booting with a Linux CD, then you can override the value

Ru

Use a Windows CD or a bootable USB stick and then you can reinstall Windows

Ai

Okay, I'll try that.

Ai

Okay thanks.

mo

You do not have to use the operating system that's right there.
Find out if the laptop is a 32-bit or even a 64-bit computer.
Choose a Linux distribution and install the. That's not as hard as some believe. Josefine, is that your first name? Then show it to the others!
