Stop Users From Locking Their Computer


How To Stop Users From Locking Their Computer

Normally it is possible for users to lock their computer by pressing the Windows key and L key together. However, if you are a system administrator, you can easily stop users from locking their computer with the help of a simple Windows Registry trick:

  Ø Open the Windows Registry.
  Ø Browse to the following Registry key below:      HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Sofrware\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

Ø Create a new DWORD entry named DisableLockWorkstation that can be used to prevent              users from locking machines accidentally or intentionally. Set its value to 1 to disable the            option and to 0 to enable the option.



  Ø Exit the Windows Registry. You may have to restart the Windows session for the changes to         come into effect.
