Password Utility

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 such as System

Settings. 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.
