Joseph do you mean it goes back to the login screen or the page you have it on?

its my laptop dont come on to lock screen after i open the lid after closing it i found this though called LClock

Download LClock 1.62b

what you think

guess what that was totaly different

i cant understand when i hit the windows key and l the laptop goes into locked but when i close my lid the screen goes black ok but when i open it it starts off with where i was before dont go to my lock screen.i dont have any password but i just want it to go to that screen though.can you help

Well I had a quick Google in the meantime mate and hitting the WIN button + L before you shut the lid will do this as the feature was not built into Windows until 8 - I know this is correct cos my laptop I converted (upgraded) to 8 does exactly this.
I shut the lid leave and after opening it again I have to login:)

Personally I would go mucking around with addon software but the choice is yours of course.

I here you dude but I think my other laptop dose this and it dose not have 8 on that one
I would Really love for my laptop 2 go 2 lock screen after it closes without
Pushing windows and l

Hum will have another scratch around then there must be some reg entry that has this feature on the machine that does it and we could find it - possible the entry could be changed to the entry of the one that works .
The only thing I ma thinking is perhaps the other machine is a different brand?? and maybe a feature of that. I am only going down this track cos I just do not like software I really don't know enough about and have been caught so many times with search bars and all that crap.

But in any case this is what you should do with all macjhines and especially after an install.


BACKUP THE REGISTRY

Start > type regedit > right clickon blue reference in start column > Runas administrator > click on File> click on Export > Save > name it whatever you please plus the dateand to where ever you want and OK .

It takes about a minute and I usually do this straight aftera clean install and the machine is running ok. I save to documents as a rule anda stick.

2 were toshibas the one it works on is a toshiba l45o-13r
I got another problem with this laptop which was pissing me
Off friend.that's why I bought a cheap older one because I know
It's great and works great.well the problem is Its giving bother
For a while I put new windows 7 hp back on it again with my key
Well I had this older laptop beside it the older one would
Get google and what ever the l450-13r would come up nothing if was
No internet never the less it is connected and got 5 bars of signal
I have went 2 the toshiba website downloaded WiFi drivers and loaded them to
No avail.I'm thinking is the actual WiFi card faulty in the unit itself or no
