start typing <gui>System</gui>.</p>

<p>Select <guiseq><gui>Settings</gui><gui>System</gui></guiseq> from the

</item>
<item>
<p>Press <gui style="button">Unlock</gui> in the top right corner and
type in your password when prompted.</p>

<p>When you next start up your computer, you will be logged in automatically.
If you have this option enabled, you will not need to type in your password
to log in to your account which means that if someone else starts up your
computer, they will be able to access your account and your personal data
including your files and browser history.</p>
<note>
<p>If your account type is <em>Standard</em>, you cannot change this
setting. Contact your system administrator who can change this setting
for you.</p>
