Active SysKey Password on Windows 7 Startup


Active SysKey Password on Windows 7 Startup

SysKey (SAM Lock Tool) is a built Windows utility that can help you the Security Accounts Management or SAM database.
A startup password is only entered at system startup at boot.
After entering the startup password, Windows will then startup to allow a    user to login.

Step’s here:

1.    Press the Windows + R keys to open the Run dialog, type syskey, and click on Ok, then click on Yes (Windows 7). 



2.     Click on Update.



3.     Select (dot) the Password Startup option, enter a password you want twice, and click on Ok.



4.     Click on Ok.



Windows will now require users to enter the startup password at every system startup before Windows will start and users allowed to login to their user accounts.
