You can also modify user and group settings via the command line. We recommend that you use the graphical method above unless you have a good reason to use the command line. For more information on using the command line to modify users and groups, see the Ubuntu Server Guide at \href{https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/user-management.html}{https://help.ubuntu.com/9.10/serverguide/C/user-management.html}

You may wish to protect your sensitive personal data \dash for instance, financial records \dash by encrypting it. Encrypting a file or folder essentially ``locks'' that file or folder by encoding it with an algorithm that keeps it scrambled until it is properly decoded with a password. Encrypting your personal data ensures that no one can open your personal folders or read your private data without your private key.

The key to effective troubleshooting is working slowly and methodically, documenting changes you make to your Ubuntu system at every step. This way, you will always be able to roll back your work \dash and give fellow users information about your previous attempts, in the unlikely event that you should need to turn to the community for support.

When you first turn on your computer, a program called a ``bootloader'' must start Ubuntu or another operating system. \notecallout[Definition]{A \textbf{bootloader} is initial software that loads the operating system when you turn on the computer.} When you installed Ubuntu, you installed an advanced bootloader called \textbf{\acronym{GRUB}} that allowed you to choose between the various operating systems on your computer, such as Ubuntu, Windows and others. However, when you installed Windows, it replaced \acronym{GRUB} with its own bootloader, thus removing the ability to choose which operating system you'd like to use. You can easily restore \acronym{GRUB} \dash and regain the ability to choose your operating system \dash by using the same \acronym{CD} you used to install Ubuntu.

This guide may not work for all Ubuntu users due to differences in system configuration. Still, this is the recommended method, and the most successful method, for restoring the \acronym{GRUB} bootloader. If following this guide does not restore \acronym{GRUB} on your computer, please consider trying some of the other troubleshooting methods at \url{https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows}. When following the instructions, please note that your Ubuntu installation uses Grub2. This guide replicates the method described in the first section of the referenced web page. Please consider starting with the third section, \url{https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows}.
