    Password protection features in windows 7

    I need some password tips for Windows 7. I had created some password but I forgot the same soon. My friends touches my laptop without my permission. So I want to add up a strong password which they cannot identify. What are the best practice to generate a good password. That means what is the quality of a good password.

    I stress the word relatively because your relatives are not supposed to guess too easily! This must be the a good characteristic is not your password with the public information like name, birth date, phone, etc. By extension, it is preferable that a password is not a word found in a dictionary, to avoid the attacks of the same name. You can mix and make a password.

    The length of password is important is to imagine a password to 2 or 3 characters can more easily be guessed a password longer. Remember that when you enter your password to the keyboard, it is easy for a person nearby to determine the length you watching / listening type. The commonly recommended minimum length is 6 characters, of course it is preferable to see a bit bigger.

    It is commonly accepted that to be sufficiently complex password must contain characters from at least 3 of the 4 following categories. First is 1 - 26 letters of the alphabet in upper case [AZ], 2 - 26 letters of the alphabet in lower case [az], 3 - Figures [0-9] & 4 - non-alphanumeric characters (@ # _ = & etc..). This are the some password protection features in windows 7.

    You can use alpha numeric password on your computer. I use my name and mobile number with each other. Like for example john123456. So that becomes a hard for guessing for all. And it is easy to remember also. Even if I forget this are the most common thing which I had mentioned in my hint panel.

    When you create a users Windows ask for a remember option or hint. In their you can type something what you know. Then create a good password and add your mobile number or anything with which you practice or carry frequently. Second thing you can go for solution like Lenovo laptop. They have face verification. Once the computer identifies you face then it allows a login.
