Using a user password

A user password provides instant password and power-on password
protection.

Setting a user password

If you choose to set a supervisor or user password, Toshiba strongly
recommends that you save your password in a location where you
can later access it should you not remember it.

Toshiba is not responsible for any losses that may occur to you, your
organization or others as a result of the inability to access the computer.

TOSHIBA Assist.

The TOSHIBA Assist window appears.

On the left side, click the Optimize tab.
