    Good evening everyone.

    I'm looking for a free software that blocks other users from accessing certain programs installed on the computer (if possible to the sites as well).

    I found AskAdmin, however, in the free version the lock is for all users (including admin);
    I know K9 Web Protection, but it works only for sites, and for all users too.
    The Gpedit.msc doesn't work, because I'm using Windows 10 Home.

    I wonder if anyone knows software that does what I need?

    Thank you very much in advance.

    From what I've seen this has the same problem as AskAdmin in the free version (affects all users, including admin).
    Anyway, I appreciate the help.

    You do NOT need any software, just make proper ACLs on files/folders that user should/not have access to
