Hi, i just made this as an example of how the FrostedGlass plugin would work and thought i should post it here too.
When you first start the skin, you get prompted to select a password.
If the skin get stuck or you forget the password, press ctrl + shift + esc and force stop rainmeter. Then navigate to the skins folder and delete the LockScreen folder.

You can simply hold down CTRL and right-click the skin to unload it.

There is absolutely nothing about Rainmeter that is "secure". It is cheerfully, wantonly, promiscuously unsecure by design.

Please update the skin to version 1.0.1 on your DA post. There's someone else that mentioned to update the version.
Perhaps it's the main reason the only password that's unlocking it is "1234" & not my own password set.
