Prevent other users from re-arranging or removing program tiles from your Start Screen, designed for computers running Windows 8 and 10. #Lock Tile #Tile Locker #Start Screen Enhancer #Tile #Locker #Lock
Specifically designed for Windows 8 and 10, Tile Locker is a very small and portable application that can prevent users from removing or changing the order of app tiles in the Start Screen. It particularly comes in handy when you are sharing your computer with other users who might change these settings, either willingly or accidentally.
As there is no setup pack involved, you can drop the executable file in any part of the hard disk and just click it to run. There is also the possibility to save Tile Locker to a pen drive or other mass storage device, in order to use it on any other computer that you own, provided of course that it is running Windows 8 or 10.
Worth mentioning is that, unlike most installers, Tile Locker does not create additional files on the disk or entries in the Windows registry or Start menu, so it does not increase the risk of OS stability issues.
Keep in mind to run Tile Locker with administrative rights. Its GUI is represented by a small window with a plain and simple structure, which provides immediate access to the only two options available: locking the tiles and lifting this restriction.
It works by disabling the drag-and-drop function and hiding the context menu in the Start Screen. The only way to re-enable these features is by using Tile Locker (or another app using the same methodology).
As we expected, Tile Locker leaves a small footprint on system resources, since it consumes an insignificant amount of CPU and RAM. It applies modifications immediately and without causing the OS to hang, crash or pop up error messages.
In conclusion, those looking to complete their collection of apps meant to tweak every bit of their Windows 8 or 10 may definitely resort to Tile Locker.
