'I do not approve of some of the programs or games that my child installs on my computer. Also I can not even control him to prevent software installation. What can I do?'. How many times we heard this question from parents. Without good preventative measures, children can bring a functioning computer to its knees in a matter of minutes. Children are a leading cause of viruses, spyware, and adware being installed on computers. Children download programs, play games, and tinker with computers. Questionable programs and changes to settings can slow down your computer or disable important functions. Irreparable damage can be done to your operating system, files, and settings.
Is there a way to prevent them from doing this and how can you keep your children from destroying your computer ?
YES. The Stop Software Installation Tool allows you to prevent users of your computer from installing unwanted software with password protection. You can specify rules according files masks to block software installers execution.
Keep PC in order and make your life easy with this tool.

General Program Options
The interface is as simple as can be and can be easily handled by you. Starting it will take you in the middle of program options, allowing general configuration of the software. I recommend setting a password from the beginning for authorized access only. You can also set it to minimize to system tray.
Stop Software Installation can work in full restriction mode by not displaying the password window the moment a software installation is attempted or minimum restriction mode when installation of new programs is allowed only for authorized users providing the right countersign.

Users control
Although the software seems simple, it does a pretty good job as its effect is not limited to the current user or administrator of the computer but to all users. And the restrictions can be applied to all computer users or you can add exceptions. "Users" tab in the interface shows all accounts available on the
system and permits deciding upon the restrictions.

File masks
File Masks is the most important part of the application as this is where you define the files to be prevented from executing. The possibilities here are practically limited only by the number of extensions on the market. You can prevent the execution of any installer you have on your computer, be it executable or Windows installer. More than this Stop Software Installation permits further configuration of restrictions by adding parts of the filenames to be restricted.
