Simple Run Blocker (SRB) is portable freeware created to simplify the process of blocking applications from being used. This can come in handy, for example, to prevent children from using certain programs. SRB offers a ‘drag and drop’ ease of use not found in most other tools of this type. You can drag an executable to the SRB window and it will automatically be blocked. SRB also features a “white list” mode, which blocks all executables except your specifically approved applications.

Features

Configure the list of blocked applications

Simple Run Blocker is a handy program that can help you lock your computer or certain processes on it. It is useful, for instance, for parents who wish to restrict the access of children to important data or programs.
The tool allows you to configure a list of restricted applications, in a simple mode: you can populate it by dragging and dropping executable files in the program. You may easily block or unblock the selected applications with one mouse click. In most cases, the changes take effect instantly. However, you may need to restart Windows Explorer.

Hide or unhide drives and enable kiosk mode

You may simulate a kiosk mode on your computer, by enabling a simple option. Simply select the ‘Block all except the list below’, after adding applications to the list. This way, you specify the only apps that can be opened, until further settings.
The kiosk configuration, however, only blocks some system processes, such as Task Manager, but Programs & Features, for instance, is still accessible.
You can also lock or hide entire drives, thus making sure that users cannot open them or reach important files stored on them.

Easily accessible, portable application

Simple Run Blocker is simple to use and does not require installation, which means it can run from any location. You may thus move it to a hidden folder or in a sub-directory that is difficult to find. This feature is useful especially since the access to Simple Run Blocker is not restricted by a password or other security method.
