Password protect your screen saver

If you don't want other people using your computer when you leave the desk, just activate the password lock on your screen saver.

1.
 

Right click your desktop and click Personalize.

 
 
2.
 

Click Screen Saver.

 
 
3.
 

In the screen saver settings window, choose a Screen Saver ...

 
 
4.
 

...set after what time of inactivity should the screen saver show up and check the On resume, display logon screen option. Click OK.

In my case the screen saver activates after 5 minutes of not using the computer.

Now if some cheeky bugger wants to set an "amusing" status on your Facebook profile, he won't be able to pull the prank through. After they deactivate your screen saver, the Windows logon screen shows up. :)

My coworker locked her purse (with keys) inside her trunk at the Leesburg Target; locksmith leesburg popped the trunk in 10 minutes and refused a tip because “it happens all the time.” locksmith leesburg

Great tips on securing your screen saver! Another approach I've found helpful is combining strong device locks with apps that manage sensitive content securely. For example, tools like https://carxstreetsmodapk.com/ can add an extra layer of control without being intrusive.

Setting a strong password for your screen saver is a simple but effective way to protect personal data. I also found that pairing this with secure apps can add an extra layer of safety—similar to how some apps offer built-in privacy features, like the ones I explored here: https://bitlifeapkmods.com/."
