Password on wake-up from hibernation
9 Answers
On my new netbook (running Windows 7 Starter) I created a password which I use when starting up or restarting the system. It was part of the initial setup. How can I now create a password to use when the laptop comes out of hibernation?

You must have a user profile, otherwise you couldn't log on at all!
The setting you need is in the power settings, as per my link above.

"There is no password facility on return from hibernation as such."

No, i don't have a screensaver password, but on a previous laptop i had a "user profile" or whatever they are called - i had to click my picture after coming out of hibernation (but i didn't have a password with it). On this netbook I don't have a picture to click - do I perhaps have to create a profile before being able to create a password to go with it?
Now that I enabled "Password on wakeup" - what will happen when the netbook wakes up from hibernation - will it accept the same pw I created when I did the initial setup? (The "password on wakeup" process that i've just been through didn't ask me to enter or create a pw - I assume it's the same one as my original pw.)
