We all have a certain friend who is suspicious of his computer and the moment something he has no control over happens to him, he suddenly despairs. And even more when an acquaintance is having fun with the computer. So to release the tension and help things not be taken too seriously, We decided to compile a series of pranks that you can pull on your most PC addicted friends.
Those of us who have already dedicated ourselves to providing technical support to people, there is a type of user that we do not support, those who treat their computer as if it were a child and suspect that you are touching their beloved device. We’re not talking about hobbyists with a healthy mindset, but people who need to disconnect from their PCs and not take things so seriously.
What pranks can I pull on other people’s PCs?
Obviously, we’re not talking about our PC, because that’s no fun. However, seeing the reaction of your co-workers, roommates, or a family member will be a lot of fun when faced with these situations. Of course, we advise you to carefully calculate the emotional state of the victim, lest in the end a situation that you cannot control will occur.
The fake update screen
Would you like the person you want to talk to not to go directly to the PC for a while? Well, if not, follow these steps:
- Open the internet browser and type: fakeupdate.net
- Select one of the screens they offer you, obviously try to select one that matches the operating system your acquaintance is using.
- Press F11 to enter full screen.
- All animations have a little program that triggers a fake blue screen of death if the enter key is pressed.
Control the pointer remotely
If your victim is using a Bluetooth or RF-connected mouse, it’s possible that upon entering range, your mouse will end up being the one taking control of their pointer and not theirs. This is best done with a device that has its own wireless adapter. Plug it in without his knowledge and start controlling the mouse on his screen without the poor user knowing what’s going on.
The Poltergeist on another’s PC, one of the best jokes
There’s nothing better than surprising someone with a howl or suddenly launching an unexpected program. To do this, we must have accessed the computer on which we want to play the joke. So, if we don’t know the user’s password, we won’t be able to pull off this joke. You can find the application by following the path from the Start menu:
- Beginning.
- All the programs.
- Accessories
- System Tools.
- Accessories
- All the programs.
From there, you can use the program to select certain actions that the system will perform at a specific time. You can therefore also use it for recursive maintenance tasks on your computer. In any case, we recommend that if you want it to be believable and the person you prank on believes that you end up creating a believable situation, the unique joke is very funny. But the most subtle pranks are those in which the person didn’t realize they were being pranked.
