  1. Change initial icon photo and name for unlocking computer


    When I press the power button, my Dell PC immediately shows the unlock pin request and small photo. Both are from years ago

    and are no longer correct. Cannot find a way to change them anywhere.

    They are not the background, just the open computer pin and small round photo.

    How do I change them...cannot find that option anywhere.

    Thanks!

    :)
