So how to activate password protection on the Microsoft Surface. At the very beginning let's start from the home screen
0:17
Let's tap Windows button in that corner. Choose settings and as you can see the list of settings just pops up
0:25
Now you should choose the accounts right here. So let's tap accounts
0:32
And as you can see here we have a couple of options. Let's choose signing options from the left bar
0:44
And your account doesn't have a password right now so you must add the password before you
0:48
can use other signing options. So let's tap add right here. And as you can see you can create a new password so let's type in some password
1:00
Let's activate keyboard. And you can type in your desired password. In my case it could be a standard one
1:11
One two three four. Let's re-enter a password just for confirmation. One two three four
1:17
You have to input a password hint so something that will help you with recover your password
1:24
So in my case let me choose numbers. And tap next. In order to confirm the whole operation let's choose finish
1:34
And as you can see right here you can change your password
1:38
You can also create a pin to use a pin in place of password
1:42
You can also choose a picture password so sign in to Windows by using your favorite photo
1:48
Or you can also choose related settings such as lockscreen right here
1:52
Let me tap it. And you can change some style of the lockscreen that you will see when you have to input your password
2:02
So that's it. And now if you would like to activate your password all you have to do is use a Windows
2:07
button right here. Choose power and tap restart. Wait a couple of seconds
2:22
Excellent. As you can see now you can unlock the screen and now if you would like to use your device
2:31
you have to input the password. So it should be your password so let me show you
2:36
This is the incorrect password and if you would like to use your device let me put the
2:42
correct one. So in my case it's one two three four. Tap next
2:47
