  1. Lock or password protect an item on the taskbar?


    Hi, just wondering if this kind of function is available in windows 10. I want to be able to have - lets say Firefox or chrome open, but when minimizes it locks and needs a password to be maximized and viewed again, just for the sake of privacy.

    Password protected Harddisk

    Hi!

    According to ATA specifications every ATA harddisk (PATA,SATA) must have the possibility be protected by a password - the bios must be compatible but most new ones are.
    A nice progam HD-X Lock makes it possible to install passwords to ones harddisks so that ever time the PC is shut down and is started again a usb-stick or CD-Rom or floppy with this program has to be inserted to provide a password. Otherwise the Harddisk apears to be empty / formatted. A very nice thing if one is a pirate.
    There is a user password and a master password. With the free version of HD-X Lock one can only set the user password - with the full version also the master password which is important cause the factory set master password in all seagte harddisks is well know (seagate+25 spaces) and samsung has no master password at all installed.
    With laptops that have a harddisk password setting in the bios one can not use HD-X Lock because when you set a password with HD-X Lock it is internally scrambled and you can not get the harddisk open without putting the lapstops harddisk into a desktop PC.

    Password protected screen lock application

    I need a screen lock software which locks the phone screen with password protection. Which means, screen lock/unlock should be made only on entering password..
    I searched for many screen locker apps, but no one comes with password protection..
    Pls give me a password protected screen locker app..
