How to log in from someone else's computer?

So, you are on a long trip and you urgently need to write to a friend on VK. But as luck would have it, the phone died. But the hotel has a computer with free Internet access. What to do? How to open your profile and not save personal data? Follow our simple instructions.

Checkbox "someone else's computer"

If you are trying to log into VK from someone else's computer, the login with the password should not be saved in the browser files (in cookies); for this purpose, the developers have specially introduced a security function. We are talking about a small checkbox that needs to be checked before pressing the “Login” key.

So, you are logging into the VKontakte site from someone else’s computer: carry out the following algorithm:

  • Enter login;
  • Type the password;
  • Under the password field you will find a small square with the inscription “Someone else's computer”;
  • Check the box;
  • After that, feel free to press the “Login” button and use your page.

If you logged into Contact from someone else’s computer this way, you don’t have to worry about the safety of your data - neither the browser nor the social network itself will remember the login and password for the page. The most important thing is to remember to log out correctly: click on the small avatar in the right corner of the monitor - the “Logout” button. And no simple clicking of the cross on the browser window or tab!

Anonymous login

All popular browsers contain a built-in anonymous surfing feature. If you enable this mode for the VKontakte social network before logging into my page from someone else’s computer, you can be 100% calm about the safety of your data. What does anonymous login do?

  1. The browser will not save your browsing history;
  2. Disables cookies (will not remember passwords or logins);
  3. Hide activity in search engines;
  4. Automatically deletes all temporary files.

Using Mozillla Firefox as an example, we will show how to log into Contact via login and password from someone else’s computer (PC); we will present 2 working methods at once:

  • Open the browser and click on the button to call the Menu (under the cross in the right corner of the screen);
  • Select the “New private window” command;
  • Work on the page that opens.
  • To open a private window, simply press the key combination Ctrl+Shift+P (note that in Google Chrome the combination will be different Ctrl+Shift+N).

Deleting login information

In a situation where you, knowing how to access your page from someone else’s computer in VKontakte, accidentally forgot to check the required box or enable anonymous surfing, do not rush to panic. Calmly complete all your tasks, log out of VK correctly, and then don’t forget to clear your cookies and browser cache.

Using Mozilla as an example, we will show how to do this:

  • Go to “Menu”—“Settings”
  • Select “Privacy and Security”;
  • Scroll to the "Cookies and Site Data" section;

  • Delete everything you can there (the rest of the Internet cafe users will only be grateful to you). Selective cleaning can be performed by clicking on the “Data Management” button;

  • Below, find the “History” block - go inside and clear the cache.

  • Ready.

Just in case you had to log into a page on the vkontakte ru website from someone else’s computer to your page, we recommend changing the password. This will almost certainly protect you from hacking, and will also provoke you to log out of the social network on all connected devices!

By following these simple rules, you will protect yourself and your data from hacking and data loss! So don't neglect them!

But if suddenly it was not possible to save the data, then pay attention to our article on the topic: “What to do if your page is hacked.” This will help you quickly restore access to your profile and get out of this situation without loss.

How to enable the full version

To do this, you need to log into your account not through the mobile application, but in the browser.
You will have to endure how inconvenient it is to use the interface on a small screen. But, you yourself wanted it, and no one asked you for it))) Then follow three simple steps:

  1. Click on the "hamburger" button in the top left.
  2. Scroll below to view all items.
  3. Select PC Version .

Login to your VKontakte website page without unnecessary risk

Guys, I’ll immediately make a reservation that, contrary to logic, I want to start not with registering a new user, but with logging into this social network, because here lies a lot of nuances that will be useful for many to know. Firstly, your data from your VKontakte account may well be a source of income for all sorts of “radishes”, so I urge you to be vigilant. Secondly, it won’t always be great if other people (even strangers to you) gain access to your account, so you should think in advance about how to avoid this. But first things first.

The best way to log in to the page you created

  1. Enter vk.com in the address bar of your browser and press enter on your keyboard. The URL of this social network has been specially shortened to make it easier for you to remember and enter it when entering. If your browser has saved cookies, you will be automatically authorized and you can go to your wall (profile) by selecting “My Page” from the left menu.
  2. Add the address of your VK page to your browser bookmarks, and if you visit VKontakte constantly (several times a day), it will be easier to pin the tab with Contact (for example, in Google Chrome this can be done by right-clicking on the title of the desired tab and by selecting “Pin tab” from the drop-down menu, after which it will move to the very left corner and will always be there until you specifically unpin it).
  3. If you use Yandex Browser, you can enter “login to contact” (or even shorter, “login to VK”) directly in the address bar and you will be redirected not to the search engine page, but straight to vk.com. Very conveniently done, in my opinion.
  4. Recently, developers have made it possible Login to your VKontakte page without login and password, but really only from mobile devices that have a SIM card inserted, the number of which you used when registering on this network. Of course, this is the most convenient login option, because you don’t even have to think about how to log in, what data to enter (you also need to remember them). More convenient, perhaps, is only a special application for a mobile phone, and even here one can argue.
    It will be enough for implementation get a quick login link to the mobile version of VKontakte without entering a password by sending a request from this page https://vk.com/login?act=mobile (you can directly from your computer).

    How to get a VKontakt login link without a password from a mobile phone or tablet

    The link will come in a free SMS message to your mobile device - all you have to do is click on it, and also add this link to the bookmarks of your mobile browser, so that you don’t have to constantly look for this SMS later. You probably already realized that, firstly, this link is unique, and secondly, it is suitable for logging in only from this mobile device (it is useless to click on it from a computer - you still won’t be able to automatically log into VK without entering a password).

    On the same page, you can order sending a link to install the VKontakte application if you want to use it (through the built-in capabilities of a mobile device, you can easily install a fake application that will be dangerous to use, but here there is a 100% guarantee of quality and purity). The link will again come in a free SMS message (passed through the vk.cc link shortener). Naturally, once you have authorized (logged in) to the application, you will no longer be tormented by entering your password or login.

How it is not recommended to log into your VKontakte page:

  1. Using the link from the message you received via Email, Skype or any other way. With a certain degree of probability, this letter could have been sent by a “fisherman” (phisher) so that you would follow such a link to a fake site (one identical to VKontakte) and enter your login and password for VK on it. Although now the account is linked to a phone number, in a cunning way you can also ask for a confirmation code that came to your phone to enter, while simultaneously changing the number attached to your account.
  2. For many people at work, administrators block access to social networks and VK in particular, and without communication and news you are not able to live a day. In this case, many use anonymizers (such as Chameleon, Spools) to log into the VKontakte social network. But you will have to enter your username and password to log into Contact on someone else’s website, and hope that they will not be intercepted and used for their own purposes by the owners of these anonymizers. In some cases, it will be easier to enter Contact through your phone, since the admin at your work will not be able to block its traffic.
  3. You should also remember that when logging into VK from someone else’s computer (or a computer shared by several users), you must check the “Someone else’s computer” under the login and password entry fields (this checkbox will appear only after you start entering your login or password - apparently, a trick design).
    In this case, the data you enter will not be saved in browser cookies and at the end of the session, when you exit Contact (by clicking on the “Exit” in the upper right corner), you will not need to go into the browser settings and clear the cookies with your password stored there and login. If this is not done, then any person who sits down at this computer (your colleague, spouse, sister\brother, child, etc.) will be able to log into your VKontakte page under your login, which would probably be extremely undesirable in some cases
