About this tag
Agent Lockout is a security program that can appear on used laptops purchased from rental companies like Aaron's. It locks the desktop and requires an internet connection to verify the device's status or a password from the rental company. Users have reported that even after resetting the computer to factory settings, the program persists and continues to lock the desktop. This issue typically arises when a previous renter installed the software and the rental company refuses to assist. Troubleshooting involves removing the program manually or seeking help from forums to bypass the lockout.
