If you've ever used an iphone or an Android phone, you know that there's a password-lock screen, a number of digits or letters unlocked, or a pattern unlocked by hand gestures, in the Windows 8 system login interface, Now it is not only through the input characters to unlock the login, we can also use gestures to unlock, using very convenient.
In Windows 8 and Windows RT, you can use picture passwords, and logging on to your computer is no longer a monotonous character and becomes more personalized. If it is a touch screen, it can be easily opened by simply a single stroke. But if it's on a traditional computer, it can be set up as well.
Since you can pick pictures and draw shapes on them, there are infinitely different combinations, and the picture passwords are actually more effective at preventing hackers than traditional passwords. You can use your finger to draw a picture password directly on the touchscreen, or you can draw a shape with your mouse.
Set up the following way:
1. Start screen, from "Settings" Super button, click "Change Computer Settings", then click "User".
2. On the right "login options" click "Create Picture Password", and then follow the instructions on the screen to see the screenshot:
3. Choose Create picture Password
Computer knowledge
4. Enter your previous login password once
5. Create Wizard--Select photos
6. Find a picture of your favorite
7. OK with this photo?
8. OK, just click three times! If the touch screen is simpler.
9. One more time, confirm the gesture.
10. Congratulations, your picture password has been created to complete
When you log in, you can use the usual login method in addition to unlocking the image password. So, it depends on which way you like. The picture password seems to be set very simple, but it's actually relatively safest.
Here are some tips to keep in mind:
Do not draw overly complex picture passwords. Keep your pictures simple and choose shapes that are easy to remember and draw. For example, it is easier to draw a close-up picture of your favorite pet than to click a tulip in the garden scene every time.
The picture password is limited to three gestures, which must be a combination of circles, lines, and clicks. Again, it's best to keep it simple. It is easier to tap a person's nose than to sketch a city's skyline.
