VolumeLock 2.4.1 by Actual Solution is a Windows utility designed to prevent unwanted changes to any audio-level parameter on a computer. Positioned in the system-volume-control category, the application lets users create fully customized rules that lock master, waveform, microphone, line-in, or any other recording and playback slider exposed by the operating system or the sound-card driver. Once a rule is active, games, browsers, conferencing tools, Windows alerts, or poorly behaved programs are blocked from altering the set level, guaranteeing consistent loudness during VoIP calls, streaming sessions, presentations, or overnight renders. A built-in scheduler can switch profiles automatically at predefined times, while command-line switches allow administrators to deploy settings silently across multiple machines. All configurations can be saved as presets and recalled through a single mouse click or user-defined global hotkeys, making it equally practical for home listeners who want to protect their eardrums and for power users who need repeatable audio environments in studios, classrooms, or broadcast chains. The software is compatible with every modern sound card that exposes standard Windows mixer controls and consumes negligible CPU while running in the background. Only one major version has been released so far, indicating a mature, stable codebase that has remained unchanged since version 2.4.1. VolumeLock is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest build and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
