What happens when I click on the button "lock" on Windows?

Original title: I have Windows 7 Home Premium.  What happens if I open start and click on "lock."

I have Windows 7 Home Premium.  What happens if I open start and click 'lock' with my mouse? I be asked to install a password before my closing and locking PC, or I will have no way to restart my computer because I hit the lock.  Thanks in advance.

Once you lock, you can press CTRL + ALT + DEL to unlock. If you normally connect with a password, you will be asked to enter this password to unlock. A shortcut to your lock screen is using the Windows key + L (lowercase).

I hope this helps.
