AppLocker provides a comfortable way to block software programs from being executed on a target system. While there are other ways to handle the task of blocking computer software programs from being run on a computer system, using Local Security Policy for example, none are as straightforward and easy to use as AppLocker which basically consists of an interface that can be used to block software.
The application will display a list of popular computer software programs including Microsoft Word, Internet Explorer or Nero Burning Rom at startup. These applications will be displayed even if the programs are not installed on the system. A click on a checkbox will block the software on the computer system.
Most users will make use of the Configure menu which can be used to add other software programs that should not be executed on the system. It is furthermore possible to remove the existing applications in the list to make room for new ones.
AppLocker (via My Tech Quest) has been designed to work on terminal servers and workstations. It can be useful to block software that should never be executed on a system but cannot be uninstalled like Microsoft’s Internet Explorer. It can also be useful if a computer is shared by several users without separate accounts.
The only drawback of the software blocker is that there is no protection of the application itself. This means that a user could simply access AppLocker and unlock the application to be able to use it.
