Lock Windows

If you are in a situation, you don't want anybody mess with you computer, while you take a quick bathroom break. There is an answer. You can lock Windows. Then no one else can get on that specific computer until you enter your password.

The first step is to go to the Control Panel, User Accounts, then to your user account window. Left click on password protect.

At this point make sure you choose a good password. Not like what the one my wife had when our daughter was four years old. Her password was "mom". Of course our daughter guessed it and logged on my wife's computer. Enough about passwords, back to locking you computer.

When you are ready to lock your computer, do the three finger salute (Hold down the Ctrl and Alt keys the press Delete key.) A option window will appear. The top option will be Lock computer. To unlock the computer you will have to type you password.

Another way to lock the computer is through the Start Orb.

• Left click on the Start Orb
• Go to the little arrow that is points to the left
  
• From the options left click on Lock
