Laptop locks are not all the same. Some are more secure than others. The most secure laptop locks use a Kensington lock. This type of lock has a small metal piece that fits into a notch on the side of the laptop. The metal piece is then locked into place with a key.
Laptop locks are a great way to secure your device, but it's important to understand that they are not foolproof. While a good quality lock will deter most thieves, determined criminals can still break through them. The best way to protect your laptop is to keep it in a safe place when you're not using it, and to make sure it's backed up in case it's lost or stolen.
Yes, you can secure a laptop to a desk using a laptop lock. Laptop locks are physical devices that attach to your laptop and desk, and they typically use a key or combination lock to deter thieves.
If you forgot the password to your laptop, you may be able to unlock it by using a password reset disk or Recovery Key. If you created a password reset disk in the past, you can use it to reset your password. If you don't have a password reset disk or Recovery Key, you may be able to unlock your laptop by using an administrator account.

I bought this after getting a new computer because the lock slot on the old one was missing. Although the monitor on the new computer did not have a little niche for a lock, I did have the cable lock. This was simple to install; after inserting the cable lock into the tiny gap, I was finished! Lemon squeezy and easy breezy... LOL

This performs as expected, albeit a more flexible base and higher casting quality would be excellent. Prices are higher than in prior generations, yet security hasn't really improved. Even at this price, I wouldn't anticipate casting seams and poor quality. A lock is only intended to prevent theft and keep good people good. Although the cable doesn't appear to be of very high quality, it is firmly attached to the laptop and poses no threat of coming loose. The cable will lessen and should prevent a snatch and grab situation, however it is not intended to sustain strong shear force (cutting).

I've tested and worked with several fingerprint sensors for approximately 20 years, as you can see in the picture. Unquestionably, the Benss sensor is the smallest one we have evaluated to date. In the image, there are two Benss sensors. Are they still there? We just included Windows Hello into our bioLock biometric control center for SAP ERP. Therefore, we are identifying simple to install and use fingerprint devices that are compatible with Windows Hello. Clearly, the Benss Sensor merits endorsement from the user's perspective. It was a little challenging to install on some computers and required obtaining the drivers from the vendor's website (as indicated on the packaging). However, following installation, some laptops like Lenovo and Dell needed to be restarted in order for the sensor to be recognized. Additionally, a Microsoft Surface with built-in face recognition was used to test the gadget. Here, the fingerprint and face recognition were "fighting," so we had to turn off the face recognition to get the fingerprint to work properly. However, a typical customer will buy this item for a laptop that doesn't have biometrics installed, and they will be pleased to see how quickly the sensor signs on to Windows. For the family, you may also establish various Windows profiles, and each one can add a finger to it (optional you can enroll multiple finger from different users to one profile). However, we like the alternative where the user can place their finger on it, and the system will recognize them based on the finger and access their profile. If several users share a PC at work for smaller activities (warehouse, healthcare, etc.), this is helpful for quick user switching. Great product, however keep it in the laptop at all times to avoid having to constantly seek for it.

This device is cost-effective and easy to use. Overall, I'm pleased with it and think it's an excellent deal.Since a few months ago, I have been using it to tether my PC laptop when working at cafes and restaurants. The lock mechanism has so far held up and demonstrated to be mechanically sound. I appreciate that the cable can easily curl up and go inside the laptop bag for transportation because it isn't very stiff. A wild, stiff cable flexing all over the table while I'm attempting to work is also not a problem for me. The cable sits naturally on a table and the lock matches with the laptop thanks to the swivel on the end by the lock. A good range of motion is provided by this design when mating the lock with the laptop's key-slot. The cable is rubber coated, but the coating doesn't attach to itself, thus it loops easily around its own end loop and around furniture.Even though anyone could definitely cut a security cable given the correct equipment and enough time, this is another added precaution to protect my laptop while I take a quick break.

Most often, laptops are taken when they are convenient to take. The typical burglar will search for something easier to grasp and flee with after seeing this evident cable lock. A set of bolt cutters could be carried by any burglar who is determined to take your laptop. The combination might easily be reset. The lock is operational. The construction of this lock has one flaw. The lock does not revolve, but the cable does. This indicates that the combination's window can only face directly forward or backward at table level. To view the numbers, all nearby computer cords must be unplugged, and the laptop must be picked up. The button to release the lock is on the bottom if I turn the combination to face front. If the combination and release button could spin together with the cable, this cable lock would be considerably simpler to operate. It works perfectly if you leave it and don't frequently bring your laptop home. I think I would soon quit using the lock if I had to unlock it every day.

This was purchased for my bespoke desktop PC. When I plugged it in, the driver installed without my intervention, and when I went to configure Windows Hello, it worked without a hitch. Windows Hello may be used with Enpass Password Manager, and so far it has worked flawlessly. I tap my finger to log into Windows rather than entering a pin or password. Keep on ticking for my password manager. I will be buying more of these for other devices and strongly recommend this item.Oh, and it worked flawlessly when I tested it on my Surface Pro 3 and Surface Book (the Surface Book doesn't require it because of facial recognition). It becomes impossible to go back to entering in pins or passwords once you start utilizing this. To make sure that it will work no matter how I touch it, I registered my finger more than once (at various angles and locations), and thus far, unless I absolutely missed it, it has worked.I inserted mine into a top-facing USB port that is immediately adjacent to where my mouse is located.

To keep my laptop tied to the table in my bedroom where I store it, I purchased this gadget. Due to the nature of the table, I was unable to utilize screws, therefore I had to use adhesive instead. It is strong and wonderful. Yes, I could probably remove it if I really tried, but if someone had spent the time and effort to remove the anchor, I would undoubtedly have known about it. The purpose is to prevent someone from simply stealing my laptop when I'm not looking (or when I'm in the restroom). I'm not naive enough to believe that a determined thief with the time to work on the lock would be prevented. It fits me absolutely fine. I obtained a considerably more durable one for my desk. I also lock the door to my bedroom when I'm not there (I put a deadbolt on it). Nothing else would be worth the money for the slight increase in security it would provide, and I'm content.You might not like this item if you wish to prevent individuals from taking your laptop in a public place. In any case, there aren't many public places where you would be able to install it. This works nicely if you want to prevent someone from casually taking your computer and leaving in a more private location.

We're not talking about "Kryptonite" bike locks here. It is more of a subliminal warning to not take my belongings with you. The plastic plate and tiny metal pointed locking inserts are the weak spots and give off a negative vibe, even if cutting the cable would require some effort. Particularly flimsy looks the connection between the cable and lock mechanism. When I originally got the unit, I was unable to spin the key to release the lock from the cord. Without releasing, it would turn as though it were filled with sand. First set had to be returned. I sprayed some lubricant on the lock as soon as I got the replacement, and that made a huge difference in how smoothly it operated. Perhaps the arrow in the instructions is intended to illustrate the barrel rotation because the key actually rotates to the right rather than left to release the lock. Once more, this combination will certainly prevent the indifferent clepto, but a motivated burglar with a good hard yank will undoubtedly succeed in stealing your belongings in a noisy manner.

A Kensington, that is. Not much else can be said. Although there may be a cheaper "work similar" cable available elsewhere, this is a truly good brand. They are so powerful that manufacturers gave that tiny slot they carved into the side of their products the name "Kensington slot." (Alright, it may be a license issue...)This cable is quite lengthy. I use mine at a stand-up desk with a pillar on each side (one on the left and one on the right). I repeatedly pass the lock through the loop after wrapping it around one pillar to lessen its size. This stops it from being dragged off the bottom of the post that is welded to a TEE-shaped base while it is still locked and expanded.Contrary to the image, the lock pivots on the cable's end and rotates around the inner lock mechanism, preventing the cable from sticking out in an awkward place.
Most laptops do have security slots, which are generally located on the back or side of the laptop. This slot is designed for a security cable to be inserted, which can then be locked to a stationary object to help prevent theft. While not all laptops have security slots, the majority do, making them a good option if you're concerned about theft.
Laptop locks are a physical security device that is used to lock down a laptop. They typically attach to the laptop via the security slot that is built in to most laptops. Laptop locks provide a first line of defense against theft and can also deter opportunistic thieves.
Laptop locks are physical devices that are attached to a laptop and then secured to a stationary object, such as a desk, to prevent theft. While the idea behind them is good, the execution is often lacking. In most cases, the locks can be easily cut with a pair of bolt cutters or even a strong set of scissors. Even if the lock cannot be cut, it can often be pried open with a screwdriver or pry bar. In short, laptop locks are not very effective at deterring theft.
Yes, people actually use Kensington locks to secure their laptops, computers, and other devices. The locks are easy to use and provide an extra layer of security, which is why they are so popular.
No, not every laptop has a Kensington lock. Kensington locks are a type of physical security device that can be used to secure laptops, computers, and other electronic equipment to a stationary object. Many laptops have a slot for a Kensington lock built into their casing, but not all do.
