CDRom-Lock0.6.1

As its name implies, CDRom-Lock is a handy application designed to help you control the CD / DVD drive of your computer in order to prevent it from opening or closing by accident.The program automatically detects the connected CD or DVD drive and then places itself in the system tray. It runs in the background, enabling you to lock, unlock, open and close the CD / DVD drive with just a click, using the context menu.The main interface is simple and does not provide many configuration options. You can choose the drive you want to control (or select all the CD / DVD drives) and select the action to perform.Locking a drive means that the eject button is blocked and pressing it, either intentionally or by accident has no result, unless the 'Unlock' option is selected again. CDRom-Lock can open and close the CD / DVD drive tray directly from the application, so you don't have to do this operation manually.The application can remember the last drive state and use it at Windows startup, but you can also set it to automatically lock all the connected drives when the computer starts. Furthermore, it can save the drive status while the computer is in standby or hibernate mode and load it again when the system is up and running.Since the application has not received updates recently and is no longer supported by its developer, errors might occur when running it on the latest operating systems.All in all, CDRom-Lock comes in handy for notebook or laptop users who can push the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM button by accident. It can protect the drive tray by blocking the 'Eject' button and provides you with full control over the CD / DVD drive.
