Window Lock

[Saffy]

hi, i'm trying to make a script so say if i want to leave the computer and i dont want my brother to ba able to use it, i just click on my program saying that the scren is locked and you have to enter the password to unlock it.

ive done the message box and the password bit, but i cant seem to find a function where i can lock the screen except for that window. is this possible or are there any other ways i could do thins?

thank you

Windows has a native feature how to do this.

You press the Windows Key + L to lock your computer, and you have to log in at the main screen to be able to access it again. If you currently do not have a password, you have to set one up. Once you have a password on your account, you will find that Windows prompts you for a password, you can remove this prompt by setting a default password using Tweak UI.

You could do this. I think Valuater made something like this a long time ago, so search around a bit.
