Lock/Unlock my PC with short cut & without password

16,112

There are a number of programs that will capture all keyboard and mouse inputs until a particular key sequence is pressed. They're usually marketed as anti-kid or anti-cat apps (e.g. to prevent a toddler or cat from causing problems by random keypresses.)

    Is there a way to configure Windows such that I can lock it on pressing certain shortcut, say ctrl+shift+ L and unlock with same key combination, without having to type in the password?

    I am reluctant to type in password each time I need to unlock it. I know this does not look safe enough but I am willing to take the risk.

      Do you have a password on your Windows user account?

      You’ll probably need third-party software to do that.

      If you do not want to use a password, why lock it at all?

      @keltari - The lockless lock. People quickly catch on to toggling. I think basically, it's intended as a boss key.
