Locking and Unlocking a domain in Domain Panel

Overview:

To lock a domain name, which prevents it from being transferred to another registrar without your permission, follow these steps:

Method:

Log into your Domain Panel account on https://domains.micron21.com
Locate the "Domains" tab and find the domain you want to lock from the list.
In the "Domain Lock" section, click the "Disabled" icon to lock the domain. This will change to an "Enabled" icon, indicating that the domain is locked.
To unlock the domain, simply click the "Enabled" icon, which will change back to a "Disabled" icon, showing that the domain is now unlocked.

It's worth noting that not all domain names support the locking/unlocking feature. For example, the following TLDs .us, .biz, .info, .name, and .pro do not support domain locking, It's important to check the policies of your TLD before trying to lock or unlock your domain name. For more information, check with the TLD's registry.
