KeyboardLocker : An easy-to-configure piece of software that helps you to block your keyboard, including Windows keys and hotkey combinations, while allowing you to enter a custom phrase for deactivating the blocking mode
KeyboardLocker is a lightweight software application designed with a single goal in mind: to help you disable your keyboard, including Windows keys and hotkey combinations, such as Alt+Tab and Ctrl+Escape.You should take into consideration that the utility is only able to block the keyboard, so mouse clicks are allowed to be performed on your computer. The tool comes in handy especially when you want to clean your keyboard, stop keyboard input when desktop macros are running, as well as leave your children in front of the computer tapping on the keyboard.
Straightforward layout
You are welcomed by a clean feature lineup that allows you to set up the entire process on the breeze. Everything is kept as simple and clear as possible, so there’s support for only a few dedicated parameters that you can play with.
Locking the keyboard
KeyboardLocker gives you the possibility to disable the keyboard by specifying a user-defined password. The exact phrase is needed in order to deactivate the blocking mode.What’s more, you can make the program hide the password when the keyboard is locked, disable the “Ctrl+Alt+Del” function, close the utility after the password is typed correctly, as well as automatically relock the keyboard after a user-defined time (in minutes).

During our testing we have noticed that KeyboardLocker carries out a task quickly and without errors. It leaves a minimal footprint on system resources, so the overall performance of the computer is not burdened. Since it doesn’t require much computer knowledge to work with this tool, even less experienced users can learn to master the entire process in no time.
Bottom line
