The USB Locker application is offered as a system tool that can help users defend their PC from cyber threats that may be transferred via USB drives. The USB Locker is promoted as a program that can allow you to make modifications to the Windows Group Policy settings easily. You may think of the USB Locker program as a front-end replacement for the 'Group Policy Editor' panel. You can find the USB Locker installer bundled with free software like the Foxtab PDF Converter and Glindorus. Please, note that the USB Locker program will require you to provide elevated system privileges to enable its operations. The USB Locker program might allow you to prevent applications from making changes to the Registry regarding the USB monitoring and storage policy. Keep in mind that the changes applied with USB Locker may prevent third-party applications from operating correctly.
Additionally, you should know that advertisements support the USB Locker software. If you wish to benefit from the USB Locker software, you may need to welcome pop-up ads, transitional-page advertisements and sponsored video commercials on YouTube and Vimeo. The USB Locker application may gather data like your bookmarks, IP address, and Internet history to show related marketing content from merchants. PS users that installed the USB Locker software may be presented with a notification that invites them to disable their ad-blocking extensions to continue using USB Locker for free. The USB Locker program may allow users to configure their OSes to block executable on USB drives and prevent the SMSS-DoOoM and the Gamarue malware from invading their OSes. However, you could use the 'Group Policy Editor' panel to make Windows more secure without the need of the USB Locker app and ads pouring on your screen. Call a tech-savvy friend if you need help with the 'Group Policy Editor' panel. Security experts classify the USB Locker app as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that you can remove with a reliable anti-spyware tool.
