How to Password Protect DesktopX

March 17, 2006 1:11 PM from

In version DesktopX 2 Pro there was a security tab where it allowed me to enter a password to prevent desktop from switching to edit/design mode - I just downloaded and installed the latest version but I can't find that feature in version 3.1 - how can I lock it down?

That was a great feature that has been requested by a few folks since v.2

It was pulled by Stardock except for the DX Enterprise edition. That sucks. I used it to keep my kids from messing with stuff.

You can see a newsgroup thread here: http://tinyurl.com/pzq5e and another one where Brad Wardell said it was going back in a future build here: http://tinyurl.com/odyb7

Still waiting, no love though.

It was promised back for the 2.x releases. Which actually happend. But in version 3 it has been moved to Enterprice exclusivly unfortunatly.
