Notes
- You must associate a password with your user account to secure it from unauthorized access. If you do not have a password associated with your user account, pressing the +L will not prevent other users from accessing your account information.
- Some keyboard shortcuts may not work if StickyKeys is turned on in Accessibility Options.
- If you are connected to Windows through Microsoft Terminal Services Client, some shortcuts have changed. For more information, see Microsoft's online documentation for Terminal Services Client.
