A1RunGuard is a bulletproof process blocker and password protector for applications for PCs. Designed mainly to block unwanted processes and programs that keep running in the background and eat up all the memory as well as bandwidth, A1RunGuard provides users with a great ability to reduce their usage.

If you want to maximize your computer’s security against ransomware attacks, A1RunGuard might be one of your best options. With its security features alongside its program blocking, it provides a skill set not many applications in the modern world do.

How does the process blocking work?

One of the main responsibilities and features of A1RunGuard is its impressive process blocking. But how does it work? How can it help you get the best and most secure out of your computer?

Well, A1RunGuard is designed to ensure that it has access to block processes should you opt for it. The free version allows the users to block up to 2 processes/programs at a time, but with the Premium version, you can block as many as you like.

Password Protection

With A1RunGuard, you get impressive password protection for your programs. Not only your programs but any executable file can also be protected and stopped from running. A program does not have to be installed to be blocked or protected. The file path is enough.

Ransomware Protection

With the help of an impressive virus definition library that is constantly updated, A1RunGuard knows exactly how the latest ransomware processes behave, what processes they invoke, and how they proceed. It then intercepts the launch of such programs and proceeds to stop them before they can do any harm to your computer.

How can it detect such processes might be your next question. A1RunGuard utilizes the Windows Image File Execution Debugger method for that.

Lightweight and quick

The best part about A1RunGuard is that it will not slow down your PC. It does not have constant monitoring nor is it heavy software that will take a toll on your processor or memory and slow it down.

Conclusion

Except for a few disadvantages such as a limit of 2 processes blocking on the free version, A1RunGuard is running hot with its impressive suite of features. If you are looking for this exact kind of program, it is a good option. The Premium version retails for $29.95 with a few extra options such as unlimited process blocking, API, import/export settings, and an anti-malware database.
