Program Protector

Program Protector is a small software application whose purpose is to help you password-protect any Windows program in order to restrict other users’ access to your private content.

You are welcomed by a clean and intuitive layout that allows you to set up the dedicated parameters in a short amount of time. A help manual is included in the package in case you want to find out more about the setup process.

Program Protector gives you the possibility to block access to a program by manually specifying the executable file and setting up the password. You are allowed to drag and drop software tools or shortcuts directly into the configuration panel.

The application displays a list with all password-protected utilities directly into the main window and offers you the freedom to unprotect the selected one with a single click.

Other important features worth being mentioned enable you to change the password of the current tool, run the selected executable file, set up a master password in order to prevent unauthorized users for making changes to your settings, as well as view logs which include details about the protected programs’ usage (time, program, and event).

A few configuration settings are hidden under the hood for helping you customize the message that is displayed each time someone tries to access a password-protect tool. You specify the title of the dialog, enter a custom text message, add additional information, as well as enable the logging mode for protected program’s usage.

In order to unprotect utilities, you only need to specify the correct password. Tests have shown that Program Protector carries out a task quickly and without errors. It does not eat up a lot of CPU and memory resources so the overall performance of the computer is not hampered.

All things considered, Program Protector comes packed with several handy features for helping you restrict access to user-defined applications, and can be mastered by beginners and professionals alike.
