A1RunGuard is an advanced security tool designed to combat ransomware and unauthorized program launches. By intercepting the launch of executable files, it analyzes command lines to detect and prevent potentially dangerous combinations. Unlike traditional antivirus software, A1RunGuard focuses on protecting your system by monitoring and controlling program execution without slowing your computer or altering system files.
It also allows users to protect specific programs with a password, block unwanted processes by filename or file path, and even redirect the execution of processes to alternative programs. Its user-friendly interface makes setting up rules and protections easy, with additional support available through a Help Manual.
