Create a shortcut to the rundll32.exe file in your \WINNT\System32 folder. 2. Modify the properties of the shortcut so that the Target text box reads as follows: C:\WINNT\system32\rundll32.exe user32.dll, LockWorkStation 3. Click OK to save your changes. Note: When you double-click on this shortcut, Windows NT locks your computer and displays the Unlock Computer dialog box (for logging back in). |
