livonia Posted August 20, 2016 Report Share Posted August 20, 2016 I locked MX5 using a custom keyboard shortcut, I went to Windows 10 settings to check something. After closing the settings window, I clicked on the MX5 icon in the taskbar and it didn't ask me for a password to access it. I tested it for a couple of times and the same happened with some other Windows apps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you have misunderstood something. The feature, I am talking about should lock Maxthon, so you would have to enter your account password to access the browser. It is handy, when you are doing something personal and let's say, you have to go to the bathroom and you don't want others around you to be able to see what are you doing while you are away. If you don't know the feature, go to Settings, Gestures & Shortcuts, and at the bottom 'Shortcuts Management'. Find the 'Lock Maxthon' shortcut and test it. This is what you should see before you could be able to access it: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BugSir006 Posted September 1, 2016 Report Share Posted September 1, 2016 Hi livonia, thanks for your feedback, I've forwarded this to our product team. But since this issue cannot happen all the time, so it may cost some time for them to fix. Thanks in advance for your patience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
