Starting Windows 8.1

When Windows 8.1 starts, you will see the lock screen. This displays the time and date and can also show extra information, including how many emails you have and what your next calendar appointment is. You can also use this lock screen as a digital photo frame.

You open the lock screen by swiping upward on the screen with your finger if you have a touch display, or by pressing any key on the computer’s keyboard.


When you first started using your computer, you may have set a pass‐ word for your user account. If you did, you will be asked for this before you can unlock the computer. You can also create a numerical (PIN) password for Windows 8.1 or use a picture password.

To switch between using a standard password, PIN, or picture if you have one set, click/touch sign-in- options at the sign-in screen when asked for your password.
