Set up DeskLock

Use DeskLock to replace the standard Windows desktop with a customized one intended to prevent operators from having access to operating system functions, like restarting Windows or shutting down tasks.
IMPORTANT:
Be sure to leave a way for the Windows administrator to access DeskLock setup, or there could be no future access to it at all.
To set up DeskLock
  1. Log on to Windows as a user with administrator rights.
  2. From Windows
    Start
     menu, select
    All apps
     >
    Rockwell Software
     >
    DeskLock
    .
  3. In the
    DeskLock
    dialog box, click
    Set Up DeskLock
    .
  4. On the
    Logon
    tab, set up logon.
  5. On the
    Desktop
    tab, specify how your desktop will look at runtime - whether to use a Windows desktop or DeskLock.
  6. On the
    Password
    tab, specify which DeskLock actions require a password, and what the DeskLock password will be.
  7. On the
    Behavior
    tab, specify what buttons will be available in the
    Windows Security
     dialog box that opens when the key combination
    Ctrl+Alt+Del
     is pressed, and what other key combinations will be enabled or disabled when DeskLock is running.
  8. Click
    OK
    to save the changes, and then restart your system.
  9. To return to the Windows defaults for all the settings changed during DeskLock setup, click
    Defaults
    .
    TIP:
    No matter which tab
    Default
    button is pressed, all the changes made in all the tabs will be reset to the Windows defaults. Changes made in the Microsoft Management Console will not be reset. These must be reset individually in the Microsoft Management Console.
