Protecting Important Data
You can protect your data in two different ways. The first is using a password to keep
important data confidential. The second way is to back up data on your desktop
computer in case of Palm-size PC damage or malfunction.
Use a password to keep data confidential.
Once you register a password, no one will be able to access Windows CE without
entering the password. Tap Start, Settings, and then Password to display the dialog
for registering a password. After you input the password you want to use and check the
Enable password protection at power on option, you will have to input the password

Important!
Make sure you use a password you can remember easily or make a written note of it
somewhere. If you forget your password, you will not be able to use your Palm-size
PC. You will have to perform a full reset, which deletes all data in Palm-size PC
memory, and start all over again.
