How to lock any software?? - Verilog - Jan 15, 2011

Do you want to lock it so that it can't be opened by anyone unless a password is typed? If so, you could zip the exe with winrar and then set a password to it.

You could try searching for encrypters. They will lock the application/whatever with a password you can set.

You could use this. Put the programs in the folder and hide it.

Interesting. That will compress the files into a hidden folder and then require a password upon opening? Or will that just hide the folder so that it can be opened by command prompt?

It will hide the folder, and it works in a different may, most people dont know. It is different than the classic 'hide' option. I also think I am going to add extra security, to where CMD won't even work.

Make an rule in the windows firewall you can for example deny Steam access to the internet.

Yes, truecrypt uses a random number pool (mouse movement encryption key generator).
