Hibernation and User Accounts...

[REY619]

In my PC there are 3 user accounts, Mine has admin rights and the other two are normal.
When i hibernate the system and if some other person opens it they directly reach on my desktop.
Is there a way, such that, when i hibernate and some other person boots the system they should be presented with the logon menu instead of directly on my desktop...
I am sure there should be an option....
Thanx!

WHOA!! SORRY!! Wrong Section!! My mistake, didnt saw..

After i log off i reach the login screen, but there is no option to logoff....

yup, just ==>> Right Click on desktop-> Properties -> Screen Saver (tab) -> Check the Box

I tried it too, but not working....

strange, its working for me

did you "check" the box?

everytime you resume ur PC from "Stand-by" or "Hibernation", the "Welcome Screen" will be shown. (no need to log-off).

btw my account is password protected & i'm using Win XP Home SP2.

How can u logoff after logging off. What sam meant was, log off and then click turn offf computer and then select hibernate. BTW Logging off will remove the reason for hibernating.

Try the solution given by s18000rpm i.e;
1. Right click desktop, select properties
2. Screen saver tab
3. Power button
4. Advanced tab
5. Prompt for password when computer resumes from standby. Check this box and u r done.

Yes this method worked. It didnt worked when i checked the checkbox in screen saver tab only. It worked from screen saver tab>Power>Advanced
Thanx everyone!

^strange

i just have to check that box to enable the "Welcome Screen" while resuming from standby...

even now i checked, i didnt have to check the box (in Power option) as @casanova said.



anyways, if its working for you, good
