Re: PUT WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER IN PARTY MODE 

Although its a nice  feature still there are some key combinations that can break the party mode.

I was showing this thin to my friend and was pressing random keys on keyboard...and one key put it down to normal mode....so its not bulletproof...but yeah a good Thing in VistaWMP

If you are throwing a party and listening to music or videos using Windows Media Player, you'll probably not want anybody messing with the rest of your computer while you are off trying to win somebody's affection.

Windows Media Player includes a feature that will let you lock the screen while still making the interface usable, so you can still easily switch music or videos while the screen is locked.

Open up WMP in full-screen mode, and you'll notice a small icon in the bottom-right hand corner of the screen.

image

Clicking on that icon will open up a small textbox where you can enter a PIN code, and then click the green checkbox.

image

Now your screen should be locked, and the Alt-Tab or Windows keys won't work anymore until you click the lock icon and then enter your PIN again.

image

It's worth noting that if you have screenshot software installed such as SnagIt, the screenshot mode will interrupt the lock mode, so you'll want to close that down before you do this.

Re: PUT WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER IN PARTY MODE 

^^ The lock button appears when you use Full Screen mode. So pls make sure you switch to Full Screen.
