Hi,

when my Screensaver locks the Computer (on resume forces Password) then Defraggler won't shutdown the Computer when its task is finished. Defraggler waits with the shutdown until I try to LogIn.

CPU: Q9450
OS: WinXP64

Hi Gandalf.

I've never used the feature, but does the "Force Password" scenario prevent any unauthorized use of the PC until you've logged back on with the password?

I would guess someone or something, Defraggler in this case, trying to shutdown the computer without logging in with the password would constitute unauthorized access.

Just a guess of course, and maybe another member will have a different answer for you.

Hi,

maybe you are right. But for example Nero and a lot of other Tools can shutdow my pc while it is protected....
