Lock your Desktop By Mouse Click!


How to Lock your Desktop by a single Mouse Click?


As we all are getting lazier day by day, this post promotes laziness to the core! Generally we have problems in pressing Alt+Ctrl+Del or Windows+L to Lock our PCs, hence it would be better if we could do that by the click of a mouse. Here's how to do it :



1. Right click an empty spot on the desktop, point to New and click Shortcut.

2. In the Create Shortcut dialog box, copy the following into the 'Type the location' of the item text box:

"rundll32 user32.dll,LockWorkStation" remove quotes while typing.


3. Click Next.


4. In "Type a name for this shortcut", type LOCK and Click Finish


5. Now just double
click on the icon, your desktop will be locked.

I tested in XP and working fine.. Just try out
