pc with unsuccessful login attempts, Guess what Lockscreen Pro is here, a
Windows application to take pictures through your webcam whenever there is
unsuccessful login attempts.
Lockscreen Pro for Windows
To start, download the Lockscreen Pro application for
your computer. The application comes in zip archived format. Download and
extract the files in a folder named Lockscreen Pro for convince.
The user interface of the Lockscreen pro completely looks
like Windows 8 UI and we can add information system time and battery
percentage. The application has some default backgrounds but you can also pick
images from local folders.
For the unsuccessful login attempts we have to configure
settings of Lockscreen pro and every time if someone tries to login on your
machine with wrong password. The application will take a snapshot through your
webcam and add the timestamp on it with the local timings.
Whenever we will login on machine with correct
credentials, we can see the images of unsuccessful login attempts of that
person along with the date and time.
After configuring the Lockscreen pro, we need to set up a
new password for the application. By default the password for the application
is admin, make sure you change the default password. Once your finished click
the done button and you will be prompted with an option to test the lock screen.
Hit the Lock button to start the application. Screen will
be locked just like the Windows 8 lock screen, type some wrong password before
you type the correct one to check whether the Lockscreen pro is taking
snapshots or not.
Take Care of Two Important Things
You can't restore password for the Lockscreen pro once
forgotten, so to remain safe the application comes with a handy feature to
unlock the application with USB unlocking. Please ensure you enable this
feature in the application settings. Go to application settings and enable the
option Unlock with USB.
When you enable this option, the application will ask you
to plug-in USB and a unlock file will be created in USB. Make sure you never
delete this file from USB as its the only key for unlocking the screen when
locked by Lockscreen Pro. It is best recommended to save a copy of this file in
cloud service.
