Hide tray icon, or require password to exit the app #9

I guess it's more of a feature request than an issue..

But I want to install this on my kids PC, but he is smart enough to just exit the app.. can we make it so a password needs to be entered to exit the app? Or simply hide the tray icon so he has no idea that it is running?

It would be a great feature.

@wishie As a workaround you should disable the Auto startup feature and set the auto startup in this way:

Run gpedit.msc Go to computer Configuration -> Windows Setting -> Scripts(Startup/shutdown) Go to Startup properties then you will get the new windows. Now add the program that you want to run before login.

In this way you have the software that run before windows login, so you could shutdow, reboot etc before login.
