When you set a password, you must enter the password before you can work on your computer again. Toshiba supports several types of passwords on your computer: . An instant password—Secures your open programs and files when leaving the computer temporarily. NOTE You need to have created a password for your Windows® account to use an instant password. . A power-on password—Prevents unauthorized users from starting or restarting the computer. . A supervisor password—Prohibits unauthorized users from accessing certain functions such as TOSHIBA Hardware Setup. This is useful if more than one person uses the computer. When setting up passwords, keep the following in mind: . The user password can be set up under the supervisor password. . The supervisor password must be set before the user password, or the user password must be deleted and then re-entered after the supervisor password is set.

To use an instant password, press Fn + F1. To unlock your system, press any key or touch the pointing device and the Windows® Logon screen will appear.
