Setting a password lets you walk away from your computer while 
providing additional protection for your files. When you set a 
password, you must enter the password before you can work on 
your computer again.

TOSHIBA supports different types of passwords on your computer:

❖

A supervisor password—Prohibits unauthorized users from 
accessing certain functions within System Settings. This is 
useful if more than one person uses the computer. 

❖

A user password—Prevents unauthorized users from starting 
the computer.

When setting up passwords, keep the following in mind:

❖

The supervisor password must be set before the user password, 
or the user password must be deleted and then re-entered after 
the supervisor password is set.

❖

The user password can be set up under the supervisor 
password.

A supervisor password prevents other users from changing 
hardware configuration options.

If you choose to set a supervisor or user password, TOSHIBA 
strongly recommends that you save your password in a location 
where you can later access it should you not remember it.

TOSHIBA is not responsible for any losses that may occur to you, your 
organization or others as a result of the inability to access your 
computer.

To access Supervisor Password from the Start screen begin 
typing Supervisor Password, or while in the Desktop screen
