To access the customisation of the lock screen, you can open up the charms found on the right side of the screen, click on "Settings" and then "Change PC settings". From here, you can personalise Lock Screen, Account Picture and Password. From this page, click on "PC and devices" and then "Lock Screen" or alternatively click on the image for "Lock Screen" on the default page and this will take you to the page immediately. Also, there is an option to turn on camera from the lock screen with a simple swipe for quick access to it.
There are a number of options to head on to the next screen:
- Desktop computer/laptop - press any key to unlock the screen and proceed either to the password screen or start screen/desktop
- Touch-screen devices - Flick the screen upwards from the bottom or middle of the screen and proceed either to the password screen or start screen/desktop
- Password - good ol' password login
- Picture Password - using a picture you've chosen and signs in with a series of swipes
- PIN - Sign in with a 4-digit number
- Password policy - turn on or off password required to login from sleep
On the password screen, you can switch between password and the picture password/PIN, in case you have problems signing in with the latter options. On the password screen, you can access the Ease of Access functions for those who require special requirements. This also the page where you can shutdown, restart or put your system to sleepy, which I have no real for at the moment but it helps to have it as a precaution!
