Double-click the file or lock the PC from Command Prompt

Pin the file to your taskbar for quick access

If, by any reason, the task fails, the computer locker returns zero in the console window.Because PCLock can be used by double-clicking its file, you can pin this file to your taskbar or place it on the desktop to be able to rapidly lock the PC when preparing to leave it unattended.

Simple PC locker with CMD support
