Top secret! Set an invisible password for Windows XP

With the decline in computer hardware prices, the author's "old man" has finally revived the storm through upgrades, and has also run on dual systems (Windows XP and Windows 2000 ). Because computers are placed in the dormitory, they naturally become "public products". But in Windows 2000, there are many settings that do not want to be seen by others. What should I do? You cannot set a password! After thinking hard, I finally thought of an excellent method. I will introduce it below.

First, find the Boot information file (Boot. ini), because it is hidden, we can select "Resource Manager", select "Folder Options" in the "Tools" menu ", deselect the "Hide protected system files" check box in the "View" option, and then select the "show all files and folders" check box in "hide files and folders. In this way, the hidden attribute is removed and the Boot. ini file is displayed in drive C.

[Boot loader] timeout = 30 default = multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (2)WINDOWS[Operating systems] multi (0) disk (0) rdisk (0) partition (2) WINDOWS = "Windows XP"/fastdetectc: = "Windows 2000"

The following is a brief description. timeout = 30 refers to the time when the menu is selected during startup, that is, when the user does not perform any operations after the system starts the boot menu, the defaultOperating SystemThe time used. The default value is 30 seconds. You can change it as needed. If it is changed to 0, the selection menu will not appear and you can directly enter the default system (Windows XP here ), if I don't want others to enter my Windows 2000 system, modify the Boot. the INI file can be implemented. First, set timeout to 2 seconds, and then delete Windows 2000 following the equal sign of the last line. When started, others will only see Windows XP, Windows 2000 actually does. Who can think that at this time, just click down the cursor key to Enter 2000? Because the wait time is set to only two seconds! In the twinkling of an eye, the system directly enters Windows XP.
