Lock Screen Package

Description

Minimalist - Black, Lock Screen + Lock Button

Containing two skins, this Rainmeter group is designed to replace the password protection that windows provides. Mostly. Begin by running the Lock Button skin. Once clicked, it will activate the Lock Screen skin, which is where the real protection comes from. It prevents any outside program from overriding the screen real estate, while still allowing background programs like music or downloads, to continue. Click anywhere to prompt for a password, then enter it. Once the correct password has been supplied, the Lock Screen fades and the button reappears, and the process can be repeated.

 A complete analysis of its functionality can be found in the "Information" section of its metadata.

Please note, if you're attempting to use this skin independently of the Minimalist - Black theme, you're better off using this version, which is designed to work without the nesting included in the package. Visually, there are no differences.

 

Additional Plugins required: NONE!

Installation information: open the .rmskin, install to the default directory. Run through the Rainmeter window.
IMPORTANT: To change the password, open the .inc file and change the Unlock variable. This will update the entire skin on its next initialization. For those of you who need some help, it defaults to “Open”.

doesn't work right, lock image only shows as black square, and doesnt do anything when clicked on, so right clicked and enabled the lock screen, only gives the "Unless you know the password, this computer is not for you!" message (does stop me from clicking anything else) when clicked on, gives grey box, but when typing, doesnt show what is being typed...not sure if its supposed to not show or not so i figured i'd mention it anyway...and last, the welcome and nope messages do not show. typing in password does clear away the lock screen but because it was enabled by right-click, its still enabled according to rainmeter but i can do everything else just fine as if it isnt there
