....Steph?

This is a BSD mailing list.  However, if I remember correctly...windows
8 was not as awesome as everyone thought, but either way...

#1. sign on as administrator
#2. [if applicable] Delete all OTHER administrator accounts
#3. CHANGE THE PASSWORD FOR YOUR ADMIN ACCOUNT.

If this doesn't work....
back up your personal stuff, reinstall windows 8, and good luck with
that one, but it will remove all user accounts, create a different
passsword for you admin account.

I suggest a little revenge first (i.e. fake pic and/or email or doc
making him think you were seeing someone else [preferably in law
enforcement] for the past year, and your new BF is letting him hack your
system etc...you know be subtle..lol

anyway hope this helps and remember this is a UNIX place not a win-blows
mailing group
