Administrator

Setting up an administrator account with a password places your

 

system in secure mode. A lock symbol will appear to the right of the

 

screen headings to indicate secure operation. Non-secure systems

 

do not use passwords. To return your system to the default of non-

users is no password. Simply press Enter at the prompt. If you

then be in secure mode. A lock symbol will appear to the right of the

 

menu headings to indicate secure operation.
