Question

How do I password protect my computer when I first turn it on? I have it password protected when it’s been on and goes into hibernation. I want to have to put in a password when the computer is first turned on. Thought it was but discovered it wasn’t. Don’t want any eyes in my stuff!!

Answer

Apple –> System Preferences –> Users and Groups –> Login Options –> Automatic Login: OFF

You will probably need to “unlock” that last section to access it with your admin password.
