This person should also turn off their computer and remove the RAM so it’s zeroed out if it gets siezed.

Full disk encryption doesn’t help much if the pc is running anyway since the key will be in memory

How will they carry the running pc if it’s not a laptop?

They use forensic tools to clone the RAM before moving it. Probably depends on exploits so whether it will work may depend on your OS, but they have access to the hardware so there are a lot of possibilities.

You can do this for servers. Desktops would be no problem

For password guessing they make clones of the computer so they can make countless instances of it to endlessly guess the password at the speed of dickheads to get around the systems cutting the guesser off after a number of attempts.
