Lock apps on your computer

AppLocker is a program for the Windows operating system thanks to which you can lock apps on your PC. Locking apps isn't permanent, but it can be used to optimize your PC's performance, help you concentrate, or set up parental controls. Using and setting up AppLocker is simple enough, but the program has been discontinued, so it may stop working in the future.

Locking apps

Using AppLocker is easy. Once you install and open it, a window appears with a list of all the apps that you can lock. Among them, you'll find browsers and word processors, but you can also choose others from the settings tab. That said, AppLocker can only detect executable files (.exe). Once you lock the apps you want, they can only be opened by going back to AppLocker and unlocking them. Be aware that if you decide to lock an executable and then uninstall AppLocker, you may not be able to reopen the app.

Ways to use AppLocker

One of the most common ways to use AppLocker is to optimize your PC's performance. By locking executables, it prevents secondary processes on your system from opening these apps and slowing down your computer's speed. Of course, AppLocker has other uses, as well. For example, you can use it to prevent your children from accessing certain apps on your PC, or you can use it to avoid distractions during a study session.

Download AppLocker here for Windows to improve your PC's speed and more.
