Hello, I am running windows xp at work and I am able to hit alt, cntrl, delete and lock down my station what are the steps to set that up for home use?
There at least 4 ways to lock a WinXP (Home or Pro) workstation:
1) Use the Windows Key + L hot key.
2) You can press CTRL+ALT+DEL and then <ENTER>, provided you've turned off the Welcome Screen and Fast User Switching. (This is the default in a domain environment, as FUS is contrary to the domain security paradigm.)
3) You can create a desktop shortcut with "%windir%\System32\rundll32.exe user32.dll, LockWorkStation" in the target field. (It is case-sensitive, BTW.) You can then assign a keyboard shortcut.
4) Set a password protected screensaver, and wait the allotted time without touching the mouse or keyboard.
