Acer eLock Management
Acer eLock Management is simple yet effective utility that allows you to lock removable storage, optical and
floppy drive devices to ensure that data can't be stolen while your system is unattended.
• Removable Storage Devices — includes USB disk drives, USB pen drives, USB flash drives, USB
MP3 drives, USB memory card readers, IEEE 1394 disk drives, and any other removable storage
devices that can be mounted as a file system when plugged into the system.
• Optical Drive Devices — includes any kind of CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, HD-DVD or Blu-ray drive
devices.
• Floppy Drive Devices — 3.5-inch floppy drives only.
To use Acer eLock Management, the Empowering Technology password must be set first. Once set, you can
apply locks to any of the devices types. Lock(s) will immediately be set without any reboot necessary, and will
remain after rebooting, until removed.
NOTE: If you lose the Empowering Technology password, there is no method to reset it except by reformatting
your system. Make sure to remember or write down your password.
