Hi I am pretty new to programming.
I have started using terminal on my mac.
I tried using the uptime command on localhost and it says there are two users. However I'm the only one logged onto my laptop.
Why does it say 2 users?
You are the only physical user logged in but there may be other processes using the TTY. Try running the command 'w' and you will see all the users using the terminal. If you open five terminals, you will see 5 users logged in. By default when you open 1 terminal session, you will have 1 user for terminal use and 1 for console use. You will always have minimum of 2.

My mom forgot her password, and she can’t log in to her laptop now. Is there a way for us to get our family pictures? That’s the only thing we really want to recover. I’m not a Windows user, so I’m clueless; any suggestions are more than welcome.
If the windows account is connected to a Microsoft account, the password can be reset through Microsoft directly (i.e outlook.com).
However, I am not aware of a simple way to reset the password of a local user on windows.
An alternative that may work would be to boot from a Linux live USB (DO NOT INSTALL from the USB) and access the files on the disks from there.

The terminal prompt on my Mac currently looks something like this: hostname username %
As far as I understand, the % means I'm logged in as root.
However, I went into my mac system preferences and checked, and it looks like I have root user disabled.
Not sure what's going on here. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
With the release of macOS Catalina Apple switched from bash to zsh as the default Shell.
The percent sign % is zsh's prompt.
You're not logged as root.

I wasn't able to open new iterm window due to the message, the photo above. Even though t definitely looks running too many processes,I think mac wasn't running too many processes. I've checked activity monitor but couldn't find any difference between normal situation.
I solved this with rebooting but wanna know what the exact problem and how to check that. If anybody has any idea, please share it with me.
Use

I dont know what it is or y it is happenining, i have done nothing related to this. how to stop this?
Normally is when a file named with your username is created. You need just to delete it and it'll be ok. It is located in your Users folder. Follow one of these links if you don't find its location: first link and second link.

With W7x64, all commands ("mkdir", "ping", "ipconfig", or the installed "composer") grant an "access refused" error.
I shut down firewall (Comodo), disabled UAC, launched cmd as administrator, created a brand new administrator session, checked and altered owning permissions (setting them to my account), and, of course, restarted the damn machine.
Last piece of information, but I don't think it has any relevance : system is on SSD.
Edit : Here is a screen shot:
I can't figure what happened to my command line, but installing an alternative (I choose conemu) makes things returning to their old self again.
