Password Protected ScreenSaver
Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance
I have a screen saver selected and have checked "On resume, password protect".
It works perfectly.
However, I want to be able to start the screen saver from a shortcut which I
created to the SCR file. The problem is it's not password protected. How
can I start it when I walk away from my desk and have it password protected?
I know how to lock the machine with WinKey + L or ALT+CTL+DEL but I want the
screen saver on password protected when I lock the machine.
Thanks for any and all help.
