How to enable Windows 8 picture password
Picture password is a feature introduced with Windows 8 that allows you to create three different gestures on any image of your choice and use those gestures as your password. The gesture can be any combination of circles, straight lines, and taps. For example if the picture you chose was of a face your picture password could be a tap on each eye and then a circle around the mouth.
1. Open the Windows Charms.
2. Click Settings and then More PC settings
3. In the PC settings window click Users and then select Create a picture password
4. From the left pane, click on the Choose picture button. Windows displays your Pictures folder with any images. Click on the image you wish to use as your password and then click on the Open button in the lower left corner.
5. Depending on the size of the image, you may be able to drag it horizontally or vertically to position it. If you're happy with the image, click on the Use this picture button.
6. In the "Set up your gestures" screen, create your first gesture, then your second, and then your third. In the "Confirm your gestures" screen, recreate the three gestures in the same order. If you're successful, Windows congratulates you. If not, you'll have to try again. When done, click on the Finish button.
