    How do I change my computer settings so that a password is needed to log back after a screen saver, sleep or hybernation? now there is only a password required to log in initially to the account. tere is only 1 account, and it is the administrator.

    For the screensaver click on:

    Personalization -> Screensaver -> tick on resume go to logon screen.

    For the sleep try:

    Control Panel -> Hardware -> Power Options -> Require password when the computer wakes
