In today's highly competitive business environment, enterprise managers are all eager to improve employees' work efficiency and ensure the security of enterprise information. And employees' software usage during working hours often has a significant impact on these two aspects. So, how can we effectively manage and control employees' software usage through computer monitoring software? The following will introduce in detail the methods to achieve effective control with the help of OsMonitor computer monitoring software.

Firstly, prohibiting the running of specified exe programs is an extremely crucial function. In daily work, many employees may secretly run exe programs that have nothing to do with work, such as games and social media applications, during working hours. These programs will not only consume a large amount of employees' working time and distract them but also may lead to delays in work progress. With the OsMonitor computer monitoring software, administrators are like having a "sharp blade" for management. With simple operations, they can easily prohibit employees from running those specific exe programs. For example, if an administrator finds that employees frequently play online games during working hours, he or she can quickly set the exe file of the game as prohibited from running. In this way, employees will not be able to start the game on their work computers and can only concentrate on the work tasks at hand, thus greatly improving work efficiency and reducing unnecessary waste of time.

However, some shrewd employees may try to find loopholes to avoid software usage restrictions. They will modify the process names of software, making the restriction measures based on process names ineffective. But the OsMonitor computer monitoring software has a countermeasure - the prohibit window function. It should be noted that the window title cannot be modified. Through this function, administrators can accurately restrict the running of specific windows. For example, for some video playback software, even if employees modify the process name, as long as the administrator sets the corresponding video playback window as prohibited, employees will not be able to open the software to play videos. This function blocks the possibility of employees avoiding management and control at the root, making the control of software usage more rigorous and effective.

Furthermore, the limited task set function of the OsMonitor computer monitoring software is even more powerful. Administrators can set a limited task set according to the enterprise's work requirements and security policies. This means that only specific programs approved by the administrator can run on employees' work computers. During the setting process, administrators usually need to record a list of specified programs on the client side and then enable the limited task set on the management side. For example, for a design company, an administrator can only allow design software such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and office software such as Word and Excel to run on employees' computers. Other unspecified programs, whether they are entertainment software or unknown programs that may pose security risks, will not be able to start. In this way, employees can only focus on work-related applications, avoiding the problem of low efficiency caused by using irrelevant software, and also greatly reducing the information security risks faced by the enterprise, such as preventing malware from invading the enterprise network through programs privately installed by employees.

In general, through these functions of the OsMonitor computer monitoring software, enterprise managers can conduct all-round and multi-level effective control over employees' software usage. This not only helps to improve employees' work efficiency and makes the enterprise's production and operation smoother but also ensures the enterprise's information security, enabling the enterprise to remain invincible in the fierce market competition.
