Most Windows lock apps fail the same way.
Open Task Manager.
Kill the process.
Done. Bypassed.
I spent weeks understanding exactly why.
The answer: they block at application level.
Not OS level.
So I went deeper.
WH_KEYBOARD_LL hook — OS level keyboard intercept.
Watchdog thread — kills Task Manager in milliseconds.
Focus enforcement loop — lock screen unmovable.
NTFS ACL — files untouchable by anyone.
The result: ATLOCK.
A lock screen with two exits only.
Correct password. Or timer end.
Nothing else works.
