    I do not know this simple trick until I find this article. I love the simple “holding windows key+L” to lock my personal computer. I tried it and it worked. Thanks a lot! I cannot imagine I do not know this one. It is easier to lock my personal computer that way.

    Thanks for this! This is a must share! Clear cut and awesome!
