    Cool tool :) I used a similar utility years ago on my laptop when I spent time in coffee shops. It's very convenient to just pull out the flash drive to lock the system when you need to walkaway from the computer for a minute. :thumb:

    Hopefully those "alternative unlock methods" are reliable and easy in case the flash drive dies.

    and why not just use a password for ur windows account and bios

    if anything, someone can exploit the usb raptor program and make a usb that unlocks all usb raptor-locked computers, completely bypassing your security

    oh also what if you spill smth on ur usb or u lose it or someone steals it?
