Try re-installing Ubuntu 1: Bring a Flash drive of 8Gb or more 2: Download your own choice of Ubuntu ISO from "https://www.ubuntu.com/#download" 3: Make the drive bootable and Burn ISO in it. 4: reboot, go into Bios setup and Boot from USB 5: Follow the steps, and make your laptop brand New... :)

I agree with Hamza. You never know what they did to the system and since there is no way to "reset to factory defaults" in Ubuntu it's better to reinstall IMO. – danzel Dec 24 '18 at 09:20
