Settings | Interface | Master lock |
General
The Master Lock allows users to protect their content and settings by applying a PIN to various areas of Kodi. Three attempts are available to enter the correct PIN. If the third attempt fails, restart Kodi to try again.
Note: This feature only protects the Kodi interface from, say, curious children. It will not protect the content and settings files outside of Kodi from being accessed via the operating system.
Master lock code and settings
Settings level: | Standard |
Description: | Here you can enable or disable the master lock and define the PIN code used to unlock it. You can also specify which areas of the application will need a PIN to access them. See Lock Preferences below for a description of available settings. |
Ask for master lock code on startup

The setting will become active and can be Enabled if required. Note: This setting will affect all Profiles regardless of which Profile is used for startup. |
