I usually put my Lappy on Hibernate instead of Shut Down after completing work. Once i get it back to life, my profile automatically opens up. So if anyone else switches on my laptop from Hibernate, they get my profile and can fiddle with which i dont want to happen.

Can i mod it anyway so that, the screen gets locked after getting back from Hibernate and then I/anybody else would have to enter the password to open my profile.

Laptop config below :ohyeah:
 
Go to power options by clicking on battery icon. then in your currently active profile > change plan settings.
Then change advanced power settings.
It should show up in first open sub menu under the active profile. Require a password on wakeup.
If its greyed out click on Change settings currently unavailable where it will ask for admin password.

Edit - faster method:
After clicking on battery icon you will come to control panel - power options. There in left hand side you can click on "Require password on wakeup". Change settings as per you requirement.
:P

Put more than one profile and add your profile with a password.
Else log off and hibernate.

Yes i have 2 profiles, both with passwords enabled.
lol. Whats the point in logging off and Hibernate? With hibernate, you can keep your files open and power off the system. Once you wake your system up, those files will be open and you can continue working.
