Is there any way to put a password for downloads or saved images?
This is silly but I have a computer desktop background war going on! I have a person who I let use my computer who saves images online and alters them as the background and it's driving me nuts! Is there a way that I can put a password on my computer so that if an image is to be saved from the internet, they have to know it? Keep in mind too that we both work on the computer, and work with a lot of the same video files, so we can't have two different logins for the computer.
I giggled for a moment after reading your question. It reminds me of my college days when units on our university's computer lab have varied wallpapers almost every hour which eventually led to fights between classes. Sad to say, there's no way to solve this problem as long as your co-worker has internet access. He can simply load an image on any browser, right click and press "set as desktop background". A download is not necessary.
The possibility to restrict or control this depends on your operating system. So what specific operating system you use? Windows XP, Vista, 7 or 8? Home, Professional?
Is it regular Windows 8? or Windows 8 Pro? Enterprise?
Just normal, dropped on the head, windows 8

How do I password protect my files and folders in Windows?

I have been using Microsoft OS since the days of MS DOS and there was no UI. When Windows 3.1 came out I thought that was quite a unique change and it made me not have to remember all those command codes. Then Windows 95 came out and I was happy but when Windows 98 came out I was elated! I only...
