What Fortres 101 Actually Does
It takes full control of security for every Windows 10/11 computer in your lab and keeps it in a clean, consistent, and secure state — no matter what users do. Here’s exactly how it protects and simplifies your lab:
- Locks down the entire desktop — Users cannot add, move, delete, or rename icons. They cannot change wallpapers, themes, screen savers, or any Windows appearance settings. Every student or patron sees the exact same clean desktop every single time they log in.
- Blocks unauthorized programs and changes — Only the applications you approve can run. Users cannot install software, download programs, or run anything you haven’t explicitly allowed. This instantly stops malware, viruses, ransomware, and “I just wanted to try this game” installs.
- Protects files, folders, and drives — It can completely hide or block access to local hard drives, USB drives, and specific folders. Students cannot save files to the C: drive, delete important system files, or accidentally (or intentionally) destroy data.
- Prevents system tampering — Command Prompt, Registry Editor, Control Panel, Task Manager, and other powerful tools are restricted or completely disabled. Even local administrators can be locked out of making changes.
- Central cloud management — Manage your entire lab (or multiple labs) from any web browser, anywhere in the world. Group computers, push policy changes instantly, monitor status, and even manage non-domain-joined machines — no need for Active Directory or complicated Group Policy.
Why Lab Managers and IT Directors Love It (and Buy It)
- Drastically reduces your workload Instead of spending hours every week re-imaging machines, fixing broken desktops, removing viruses, or restoring deleted files, you simply install Fortres 101 once. Many labs report cutting support time by 80–90%.
- Saves serious money Fewer re-images = less staff time + less downtime. One university library with 60+ machines reported dramatically reduced repair time after switching to Fortres and strongly recommends it for any public workstation environment.
- Creates a consistent, professional experience Every user gets the same reliable desktop and working environment. No more “my computer looks different” complaints or broken print settings.
- Stops both malicious and accidental damage It protects against vandals trying to hack the system and well-meaning students who accidentally delete files or change settings.
- Easy to deploy and manage Install it, configure your policies through the clean web interface, and you’re done. Updates and changes can be pushed remotely without touching each machine.

I only wish I knew of Fortres when I was configuring systems for children & other careless users, it's practically bulletproof!Voorhees, NJ
Unfortunately, Fortres 101 is, in general, a rather secure program. There aren't really any holes in the program that have been discovered.Found on a hacker web site
Fortres has really helped me reduce my work. As a system administrator, I have saved a lot of time doing other important things than maintaining the PCs, all thanks to Fortres.Singapore
