If some game is running when Shield activates
then Windows is "frizzing"
and I can not switch Shield off from Cafe Manager. |
- In Cafe Manager for User Pays Before mode you have an options do
not activate Shield when time has elapsed.
If you use Screen Shield 2.0.0 or higher:
- Please use XTools>Window Killer... menu to run Window Killer
program and make appropriate selection. For more info see Tour
or Screen Shield help file
If you use Screen Shield 1.25 or lower:
If you haven't disable Direct Exit (in Shield Menu) you can try to
move mouse pointer (it's transparent, but it's there) up to the left
corner of a screen and do Left Click. If Shield has successfully locked
the PC, this will work and Shield will unlock computer and you can
exit the game to Windows. Otherwise you have to manually reboot PC.
