Effectiveness of password computer when the computer is open

The computer access password act as a block, restrict or prevent access to the computer by unwelcome intruders, when the computer is open?

D I'm Kaye

When you put the password on your computer only people who know the password can log into the account protected by password. When your computer is started, or is in sleep or lock, when you try to access it, it will ask for the password.

However, when you already login in your PC and if you just leave your PC, other people could access while you are connected but you can either lock the PC when leave you or stop or turn sleep mode.

You can also change the setting in a way to browse automatically sleep mode or even display the server if you do not use your PC after a period (e.g. 15 minutes) and when someone tries to access the PC, he or she will need to enter password.

For better security, it is also recommended to protect your system with bitlocker, for protection (if the version of your Windows supports this feature):

  • Satellite A100-237 screen remains off when the lid is opened

    OK I'll try my best to explain this. My power settings are adjusted so that the computer has no effect when the lid is closed - except for the display, which is turned off and back on when the lid is opened (normal behaviour).

    Now, in rare occasions, when I opened the back cover, the screen doesn't come back, unless I close the back cover and open again. It is not a big problem for me at the moment, but I'm afraid that the connections of the screen with the motherboard by the cover have been damaged.

    BIOS version 2.00, maybe an update could solve it?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Ataberk,

    I think that your problem can be caused by the micro-switch that will detect when the laptop lid is closed. If this switch is in the open position so your screen will remain off even with the lid open. The idea here is that you can get the display by closing and opening the lid again.

  • If I can put a music file in which will start playing when the mail is opened

    I must say that I am not convinced that by using the specified HTML it could succeed to set the file musical itself. He would probably play if the sender displayed to himself and he opened on his own computer, because the file is local (always assuming that its authorized e-mail client reading.)

    Note that Thunderbird will not particularly play music embedded in messages, so if someone you send to use Thunderbird, they don't hear it.

    It is one of the reasons why I use Thunderbird. Besides having always cut sound. It can be very annoying having noise suddenly pop out of your computer in the workplace.

  • Laptop starts up when the lid is opened

    I spilled some water on the laptop. I used AC power with no battery attached. When this happens, I quickly pulled the plug. I knew that the warranty does not damage the water so I dissamble each component and put them in dry box for a week. Then I used alcohol to remove all stains left behind.

    After I got everything back up, the laptop starts fine when the lid is closed and hooked to an external monitor. Can I use any program withou any problem. But it wouldn't start when the cover is open. It was as if someone was holding down the power button to force the computer to turn off.

    My question is, how the laptop detects if the lid is open or closed? It is magnetic, or is it using a switch as a reed switch?

    my laptop is HP Pavilion SleekBook 14 14-B031TU with the motherboard: DA0U33MB6D0-698523-001.

    Kind regards

    Ahmad

    Most newer laptops have a sensor (switch) magnetic in the cover of the screen bezel or the touchpad.

    You can test that by sliding a small magnet around the telescope cover touchpad area and/or.

  • What kind of image is in a document. INDD so when the file is opened you get the message 'document contains 6 links to sources that are missing' and when you click OK to recreate a link to missing files, the document opens with the images?

    What kind of image is in a document. INDD so when the file is opened you get the message 'document contains 6 links to sources that are missing' and when you click OK to recreate a link to missing files, the document opens with the images? Missing images are not on my computer, but when the document opens the images are there. I can copy and paste the INDD images in Illustrator. Y files/images/I am able to copy and paste the images that have been incorporated into the INDD file in AI of the INDD file? If this is not what type of image am I copy and paste? Can I take the images that I stuck in there and place them in a new INDD document and have the images to reproduce without problems?

    The images could be anything - check the links Panel.

    What you see (and copy) is just the screen preview, not the actual image data.

    I have a protected PDF file. I have the password. How to convert to Word?  The export tool will fail because it has a password (even if the doc is open)

    Hi stupiddonkey,

    You will need to remove the password from the file (using Acrobat, not reader) before you can convert it to Word. To do this, choose file > properties, and then click the Security tab choose no security in the context menu of the security method and enter the password when you are prompted.

  • Skype rings only when the application is open

    I have a Skype number for my phone a few days ago and I just noticed a problem. When people try to call me using my Skype number, it sounds only when the application is open and the phone is unlocked. However, people can still call me normally on my Skype ID, it is locked or not currently open to the app. It's a rule I missed when having a Skype number?

    I reset my phone to factory settings and it works now.

  • How to prevent a TCP connection that is closed when the VI who opened it terminated.

    Hello everyone.

    I'm developing an application based on the servers and clients communicate through TCP in LabVIEW 2012.

    When the Server/client opens a TCP connection, it starts an asynchronosly running "Connection Manager", to which connection reference that takes so all communication happening. It all works very well.

    -J' have a situation where a client connection manager can be informed of another 'new' server. I would like to open the connection (to see if it is still valid) and then pass this reference of connection to the main client code to spawn a new connection manager. This avoids lock me up the Client code main with an ish timeout if the 'new' server does not really accept connections.

    The problem is that if the connection manager that opens the connection to the 'new' server is stopped, then it seems to destroy the reference he opened. This means that the other connection manager that has been happily character with the 'new' server has closed TCP communications (I get an error code 1 on an entry).

    I created an example to illustrate the issue which should be used as follows:

    1 run server.vi - he will listen for a connection on the specified port on his comics.

    2. run Launcher.vi CH - it will open a connection to the server and pass the TCP reference to an instance of connection Handler.vi, which he started.

    3. the connection manager needs to send data to the server

    4. stop the Launcher.vi CH

    5. the will of Handler.vi connection error.

    Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    See you soon

    John

    Do not perform the opening and closing of the TCP connection in Subvi. Do this to master VI.

  • Detect when the menu is opening and closing

    Hello

    In my application, I use the ESC key to return to the previous screen.

    The problem is when to press the MENU button, a menu appears, and it must be able to use the ESC key to close the menu (if he wants).

    So, I would detect when the menu is opened and when the menu closes, I can manage the ESC to go back screen or simply to close the menu.

    Is it possible to do this?

    Thanks in advance

    Hai

    Do not use keylistener.

    Override keyChar() in your screen and locate the ESC key.

  • 7520 Photosmart printer - ink cartridges carriage out when the cover is opened

    The transport does not automatically moves himself posted to the right of the machine when the lid is open.  I'm unable to change empty ink cartridges.  The machine was purchased new April 2013 and is out of warranty.  I turned off and turned it back over 15 min later, no change.

    Any suggestions?

    Hi @Clayball,

    I see that you have problems with the transport not to move to the middle in order to change the cartridges.

    I would like to help.

    I would like to do a hard reset to see if that will solve the problem.
    Let the printer and disconnect the printer cable and the wall socket for 60 seconds.
    Reconnect the power cable to the output of the printer and the wall, and not a surge protector.
    This ensures that the printer is full on and can help this situation.

    If the transport does not move freely when grasp the front, it's OK to gently push the carriage to the left or right to move along the rail.
    Fragments of paper can get lodge between the cart and the gas station.  It is important to look at the far right of the printer with a flashlight to make sure there is no debris.

    I handed a document with some measures to try to resolve the transport stall.

    A Message appears 'Transport Jam' on the control panel.

    If the problem persists, in 800-474-6836, please call our technical support. If you do not live in the United States / Canada region, please click the link below to get help from your region number.

  • How to move the tablespace SYSAUX ASM file system when the database is opened?

    OS: RHEL 5.9 with UEK

    Database version: Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64 bit Production

    On a stand-alone server network infrastructure.

    According to me, that if I put the database in montage mode or disconnect SYSAUX, I can move the ASM filesystem SYSAUX tablespace by issuing the following instructions:

    • format of backup as copy tablespace SYSAUX "+ SYSTEM";
    • tablespace SYSAUX switch copy;

    But I want to know how I can move the ASM filesystem SYSAUX tablespace when the database is opened.

    Thank you.

    The two doc tells how to move sysaux when the database is opened:

  • List of relational models available when the design is open is not true

    I use DM 3.3.0.747 and I have a design with 11 relationship models (without logic models) and I'm using version control.
    Each relational model has been added, the after another, using the 'import of data dictionary' and then added/committed to svn.
    After it was created 11 models, I save and closed the project.

    But now when the design file is reopened, the screen "Selectionner select relational models, shows only 7 of 11 models.
    Models that do not appear in this list are open regardless of what is selected.

    Thus, all relational models are in the project, but it's like the 'Pseudo-index"used by the splash screen when the design is open is obsolete.

    The only way to fix it was save as project in another empty folder, but of workaround does not resolve the problem in the folder where the files are versioned.

    Suggestions of what might happen, and how I can fix?
    He would not re - import the SVN project and tomorrow, when I need to add a new model to get the same problem because I did, and that's what happened again.

    Thank you!

    Hello

    You must delete the file dmd_open.xml in the directory of the design. There is a bug and this need to file should be deleted after adding new model relational.
