Sign out or lock

Your account is automatically locked if you close the Cover or don’t use Surface for a while. Here’s how to

manually lock or sign out:

1. From the Start screen, tap or click your account picture (upper-right corner).

2. Choose Sign out or Lock.

Sign out or lock. What’s the difference?

 Sign out closes all the apps you were using.

 Locking protects your account from use, but lets someone else sign in with their account. The apps you

were using aren’t closed.

Change your password

Here’s how to change your password:

1. Open the Settings charm, tap or click Change PC settings > Accounts > Sign-in options.

2. Under Password, tap or click Change and follow the on-screen instructions.
