Kid-Key-Lock is a software program for your computer that blocks a user from using specific keyboard and mouse keys. With a small download size and no graphics, the Kid-Key-Lock software works on both desktops and laptops alike, including older models. This software also works on an array of Windows operating systems ranging from Windows XP all the way to Windows 10. Kid-Key-Lock is an easy-to-use program with clearly labeled buttons, which allows even computer novices to figure out this program in under a few minutes. As the name implies, the primary purpose of Kid-Key-Lock is to block children from accessing certain features of your computer. For example, you can lock both the keyboard and mouse to ensure that your child isn't sneaking out of bed to browse the Internet or play PC games.
Lock Any Key With Kid-Key-Lock
Kid-Key-Lock gives you the versatility you need by allowing you to lock any combination of keys on your computer. For the mouse, you can lock each mouse button individually, including the left mouse button, the right mouse button and the mouse wheel. You can also lock a user from performing specific features with the mouse, such as double clicking it. Regarding the keyboard, you can lock out system combinations to ensure that your child doesn't accidentally access a Windows feature that could damage your computer. You can also lock out every key on the keyboard aside from the character keys and the space key. A password on both the Kid-Key-Lock setup screen and the quit screen ensures that your child cannot close the program without your unique access code.
