Using the Windows Enforcer Tool
The Windows Enforcer Tool ensures Content Filtering on your Windows computer.
The Tech Lockdown dashboard includes a wizard that helps walk you through the process of installing the Windows Enforcer Tool.
Once installed, the Windows Enforcer Tool automatically checks your system for the Cloudflare WARP application. It does two main things:
- First, it removes the ability to uninstall the Cloudflare WARP application, without affecting the ability to remove other applications.
- Next, it detects whether the WARP application is running correctly on your system, restarting it if necessary.
