| Guest | Locking computer by closing laptop lid. I live in a shared house, when I leave my laptop in a room unattended my housemates or visiters always seem to end up using my laptop closing programs or websites that I am currently using/viewing. Seen as how I always close my laptops lid if I leave it, is there anyway I can set windows to lock instead of sleeping when the lid is closed? |

| Guest | Re: Locking computer by closing laptop lid. I can't see a wait to have it lock when you close the lid, but you can set it to need a password when resuming from sleep... Control Panel (Classic), Power Options, System Settings, Choose what closing the lid does...
