Telock Description

Telock is a practical tool that intends to help developers who want to protect their work and reduce the size of the executable files. The application is designed to encode your files in order to make them impossible or at least hard to reverse engineer. Whether they create applications for a profit or just to practice their skills, most developers want to prevent other users from stealing their work or using it for other purposes. In order to do that, the developer has the option to encode or obfuscate the code which can be difficult without a specialized tool. This program aims to help by locking the content of your executable files without changing their structure. Thus, the files can still be run in order to accomplish their original purpose but cannot be read by unauthorized users. Additionally, Telock reduces the executable size which makes it easier to distribute the file to the end user. While the operation is performed with just a couple of clicks, the developers should take a look in the Settings tab in order to tweak the compression options and select the section name pattern. In our tests, the program has significantly reduced the size of multiple executables without affecting their functions. However, you should backup important files before locking them. The app automatically generates a backup file but an additional copy can’t hurt. As the developer mentions in the documentation, there is no such thing as a foolproof software protector and you should treat this tool accordingly. Since it hasn’t been updated lately and the developer does not provide support, you should think twice about using it for commercial applications.
