Publisher's description of 1 Click Lock Your PC
1 Click Lock Your PC version 1.6 is an incredibly powerful multi-purpose program for locking your PC and its resources when you are not around and want to restrict access to your computer. Also, it is a software solution for small and medium sized companies in the PC rental market. It helps you schedule the locking of the PC you are planning to give on rent. If the user doesn't pay you the rent, the PC gets locked every 30 days or for the period you specify. You will then give the user a password for unlocking the PC for another 30 days.
Editor's review of 1 Click Lock Your PC
3.0 stars
For the niche market of PC renting, this locking program could be useful--if users couldn't work around it. 1 Click Lock Your PC's simple interface really needs little explanation.
Configuring the software is easy. You merely choose to enable or disable eight locking options, disabling drives, icons, and taskbars. Setting the rental start date and how often to lock the PC takes only a second. Your customers will be locked out of your PC if you don't supply them with a password at the end of the rental period. Of course, the demoware won't let you generate a password. That makes the program difficult to test.
The downside of this software is clear. You must install it to an administrator account. Booting from something other than the hard drive allows easy access to the user's files. Purchasing the program gives only a 365-day license, though you're allowed to install the software on as many rental PCs as you wish. Difficult to completely test, not tough to work around, and geared only to PC rental companies, this program isn't recommended for the majority of users.
