Protect Task Manager

Would you rather keep people out of your computer’s task manager?

If you want to prevent access to your Windows XP computer’s task manager, our Protect Task Manager can help.

Simply download and install Protect Task Manager and the Windows Task Manager will not run. The time and annoyance you'll save by using this easy to use and well tested product is well worth the tiny price!

What is the Windows Task Manager and what does Protect Task Manager do?

The Windows Task Manager is an application that provides a program list showing information on the status, memory, and CPU usage of your running applications. It also allows you to set process priorities, and shut down, restart, hibernate, or log out of your account. If you are unable to shut down an unresponsive program normally, it can be forced to close from this window as well.

The Task Manager is especially vulnerable to viruses and malware so you probably don’t want everyone that walks by your computer to be able to use it. Pranksters, amateur users and those with malicious intents all can wreak havoc on your PC if allowed a chance.

Software Candy’s Protect Task Manager helps keep your shared access computer (like a library, store, or kiosk PC for example) safe by disabling the Windows Task Manager. Other fixes found online involve using a tool called the Policy Editor which isn’t available in Windows XP home edition.

Note: Current version restricts only the account from which you install ProtectTaskManager. This account requires administrative privileges (i.e. not a Limited account).

As with all Software Candy products, Protect Task Manager is completely free of any viruses or spyware (digitally signed for authenticity and integrity) and is well tested for its advertised features. If ever needed, you can also uninstall it completely with a single click, performing a total cleanup after itself.

Keep your public computer safe from unsavory characters with Software Candy’s Protect Task Manager today.
