Password Protect My PC Software

Locking down the computer to prevent unauthorized access when you are away can be done in a simple manner, provided that you set a password for the active account(s) on your PC. Nonetheless, there is another solution that you may find handier and it doesn't imply such administrative tasks.
Using a specialized application for securing the system is a viable option and a tool like Password Protect My PC Software can very well be one to suit your needs.
With a minimalistic, yet very easy to understand and use interface, the program gives you the possibility to restrict the access to your computer automatically each time the PC is not in use. All you have to do is modify a couple of options and set a password that unlocks the system and grants you and other users who know it access to the workstation.
The first step is to define the time interval that has to pass before the idling computer is locked. As soon as the selected amount of time passes and the keyboard or mouse have not been used, Password Protect My PC Software will stop any attempt of accessing the system without providing the correct password.
From the same main window of the application, you can set it to start with Windows and thus have the PC secured from the get-go. Password Protect My PC Software also reports the amount of time the computer it runs on has been idle and you can stop the program using the dedicated button placed in the middle of the GUI.
To sum things up, it's safe to say that with the help of this utility you can leave your system unattended, without having to worry about someone prying among your private files. Very easy to use and with minimal configurations needed, Password Protect My PC Software is well suited for everyone, advanced and less experienced users as well.
