Setting passwords

Setting a password lets you walk away from your computer while

providing additional protection for your files. When you set a

password, you must enter the password before you can work on

your computer again.

TOSHIBA supports different types of passwords on your computer:

❖ A supervisor password—Prohibits unauthorized users from

accessing certain functions within System Settings Setup. This

is useful if more than one person uses the computer.

❖ A user password—Prevents unauthorized users from starting

the computer.

When setting up passwords, keep the following in mind:

❖ The supervisor password must be set before the user password,

or the user password must be deleted and then re-entered after

the supervisor password is set.

❖ The user password can be set up under the supervisor

password.

Using a supervisor password

A supervisor password prevents other users from changing

hardware configuration options.

Setting a supervisor password

If you choose to set a supervisor or user password, TOSHIBA

strongly recommends that you save your password in a location

where you can later access it should you not remember it.

TOSHIBA is not responsible for any losses that may occur to you, your

organization or others as a result of the inability to access your

computer.

To set a supervisor password:

1 To access Supervisor Password from the Start screen begin

typing Supervisor Password, or while in the Desktop screen

double-click the Desktop Assist icon.

2 Click Tools & Utilities.

3 Click Supervisor Password.
