What if the OS has an administrative lock on it? Like on a windows computer where you need to enter administrative password to do any basic things?

...and the question is??? All you have to do is plug it between keyboard and PC and than restart the machine. You can force restart by pressing and holding on/off button.

This device is OS agnostic, meaning that the OS has no knowledge of it. I use it all the time with a Windows PC when I don't have admin privies. The only limitation of a device like this is that it will not register anything if the user opens a browser and clicks on a URL using the mouse. This can make it hard to know which site the password is for. That said, I love this thing.

This USB works directly with the keyboard, the OS's Lock its irrelevant. All that is typed into the PC or MAC pass trough this Device then the PC or MAC OS. Now do me a Favor and have an awesome day!

Hi! There are two ways, 1. "admin" always is the User name for administration, you can set up a password or not, it allows you to do any changes. 2. Set up a Guest user, you must write the name of the User name and the password could be "nothing" or you can write a password for the guest user. So, if you type the IP or hostname, the system will ask you at least the username.

Yes you can. You need to go into control panel and look for settings that dictate what happens when the lid is closed. Note that if you have a password required by the bios or a disc encryption program, you will need to power the laptop with the lid up - type in the password. When the windows login prompt is shown , you close the lid. I do this all the time work.

When you say locked do you mean with a password locked. If that's the case you should return it when I ordered mine all I did was ppower it up and it was good to go.

Nope, Ubuntu is pretty secure and without administrator password you simply have to reinstall Ubuntu on that machine. Anyway since you do not have any data of yours yet you don't have to worry about backing out up. Get a USB powered CD/DVD drive, download and burn a free latest Ubuntu version, it is pretty simple and the actual installation should not take any more than 15 mins.

Yes. I have done that on some SanDisk USB drives that I do not want password protected.

You would need separate time clock software in order to do that. Not to say that it can't be done it just is not intended for that out of the box. It is intended to replace usernames/passwords for logging into windows and other applications.

Thre is a much simplier way to do it. There is a program called UNLOCKER. Its a free download, best place to get it is CNET downloads. It will monitor your system or can put in the right click menu when accessing files. It will 'unlock' whatever issue you are having. You can even move files with it to different locations or if you are trying to delete files, it will do it too. Great peice of software and I highly recommend.

It has no encryption or password protection built-in. You want a Data Traveler Locker drive for that.

I purchased this laptop and was given the password with the computer. Try "password" or "admin"

Nothing, your laptop would just see a new device. It won't lock automatically. You have to install and setup the software before any functionality is present.

You can turn off the exit warning in the system settings if you have your installer password. I do not know a way to turn off the entry warning.

It is actually worse than that. The included software stores your Windows password unencrypted in the Registry. Also, Apple bought this company so neither the hardware nor the software is supported any more.

yes if you go to restrictions in settings you will be able to lock the internet and unable to get on unless you have the password
