Anti-Theft

Activate this feature by right-clicking on the tray icon and selecting Anti-Theft.

When enabled, this feature will sound an alarm if your notebook is moved. This feature is password-protected to prevent unauthorized access.

The first time you activate this function, you will be prompted to set a new password.

Your password needs to be between four and eight characters, and should consist of letters and numbers. Once you've set the password, the Anti-Theft feature will be activated.

If you enter a password that is invalid for any reason, you will be prompted to try a new password.
